48 Hours in Asheville, North Carolina: Best Things To Do

Two days in Asheville, North Carolina, had us enjoying local farm-to-table restaurants, an immersive foraging tour through the woods, and a festive afternoon exploring the Biltmore Estate. We had previously visited Asheville back in 2020 (when we were living in our van), but we cheaped out and missed all the best parts of the city, so this “redemption trip” allowed us to experience it in a completely different light. Join us for 48 hours as we continue our wellness series and enjoy the food and sights of the beautiful mountain city of Asheville. 🍂

Everywhere we went in Asheville:
🍳 Biscuit Head
🍸 Leo’s House of Thirst
☕️ French Broad Chocolate Lounge
🥪 Corner Kitchen
🏰 Biltmore Estate
🥘 Rhubarb
Follow along to see where we head next. 🥰

So happy we were able to give Asheville another go. It is now one of our favorite cities in the States, and we hope to return to it again in the future! Anything you recommend for us to eat or do the next time we visit? 🥰 I wanted to say a special thanks for all the support on my latest art release! 🎨 If you missed it, I created a series of different pieces, inspired by this trip to Asheville and the Appalachian mountains, in general. There are a couple fun things left, so if you’re on the search for some unique holiday presents for friends and family, take a peek into my little art shop! chadandclaire.com/shop 🧺 Coming up next, a very FUN and FESTIVE “DECORATE WITH US FOR CHRISTMAS” video! 🎄We’re going to be setting up our very first Christmas tree in our new home, AND we’ll be cooking a three-course Finnish feast (!!!!!). It’s going to be the ultimate holiday video, and we can’t wait to share the cheer with you all! ❄ Catch you all next Saturday! ⛄ Claire (and Chad)

Next time make sure you catch the drum circle downtown on Friday nights at sunset. Most importantly...book your next trip around a concert at The Orange Peel. This is the way to truly do Asheville NC as a local.

Amazing? You must have low standards. Poverty wages, high taxes, tons of drugs and crime, and a city council that doesn't know what the hell they're doing. Not my definition of amazing.

Oh yes Chad, both Claire and a great relationship like you 2 have, is way more precious than any mansion. And there's a lot of stress running a mansion. I have a friend who has one. It's like running a big complicated business at your home! No time to relax. And forget most joys of travel. You two are the lucky ones 🌞🎶

You guys are great and so likeable. We just binge watched a few of your videos and enjoyed them heaps. Be encouraged and keep embracing your dreams. We stumbled across your channel while looking up places we went to on our American Adventure in October… we did make it to the Smokies for peak fall. But hey, I know anxiety about things can weigh us down, but you’re doing great and we have decided to subscribe and keep following you while you’re offering your videos. Thank you. And thanks for being real, and laid back. It sure beats the shouting and “in-your-face” stuff that’s all over KZfaq these days. Looking forward to seeing so much more and hoping you’re channel grows from strength to strength.

Your video of Asheville, North Carolina was sensational. This is the first time that I have spent anytime in Asheville enough though it was through your travel vlog. It felt as though we were foraging the forest with you. We even were taken the restaurant where you dined on what you naturally collected in the forest. The food looked delicious! All the food looked as exotic or tantalizing as the food abroad. If that were not enough, then the tour of the Biltmore Estate was something else. I guess I am getting an education of my own country. Thanks Chad and Clair!

The Antler Hill Winery was the original Biltmore Creamery. The estate raised dairy cows and distributed fresh milk, cream, butter, and ice cream throughout the Asheville area. The underground hallway that you traversed (with the twinkle lights) was where they would keep the cows and milk jugs! So glad you loved our little city!

@janetmorgan-rosen8096 Жыл бұрын

I like the Biltmore Estate, I go all the time. They change the Christmas decorations ever year, so it's always different. The most wonderful time is at Easter, when the tulips and azaleas are in bloom. The grounds are amazing in the Spring. I would also like to add that Chimney Rock has the flowering bridge which is also beautiful and fun. The arboretum has a fun holiday light display.

You're not supposed to film inside Biltmore... guess you didn't get caught. Also, the underground part of the Winery is because it use to be a working dairy farm... that is where the milk was kept... cold.

Hi, how did you get permission to film inside, especially for commercial use in a monetized YT video? According to their website, it's not allowed. Just so u don't run into any issues... Personally I find the admission of min $69 outrageous.

@brianabranch1734 Жыл бұрын

Yep, not supposed to film inside. I doubt they "got permission", just didn't get caught which is unfortunate for everyone else who would love to capture video inside but choose to follow the rules.

I moved to Asheville, NC, 6 yrs ago, and I'm not far from Brevard Rd, Blue Ridge Parkway area. I can think of some better things to do in 48 hrs. There are Trolley Tours, La Zoom Comedy Tours, River Arts District, Glassworks, Omi Grove, Brewing Companies, and so many other things people come here and do. The overpriced and not original Biltmore isn't as popular unless you're part of the, I think I'm high society..

Has so many people but not enough room and the city still says come on in, we have room😂🤣 Homeless od daily, violent crimes is high af. Radio lights up every hour or so on overdoses, robberies, shootings, and overall all the lovely things you see in a failed city. Visit if you want but don't stay😂🤣
