This location is really close to the Biltmore estates (11 minutes). There are also other great locations nearby that we explored such as Chimney Rock State Park (about 45 minutes with traffic and mountain driving). If you like to hike we highly recommend visiting this park and hiking up to exclamation point 2480 feet elevation). You can also see Lake Luke from up there. Astonishing view. There are several ingles supermarkets within 1 to 2 miles drive. Walgreens and more. The only downside was finding the driveway. And once you find it, it’s a bit narrow and not as easy to get in or out. Overall, we had a great stay. The house was well stocked with the basics. We didn’t eat out too much. But the host has plenty of recommendations for places to eat!
