Description from their website:
Built in the late 1890's as a classic planned community at the entrance to George Vanderbilt's Biltmore Estate, Biltmore Village today is truly one of the Carolinas' most unique touring and shopping environments. Because of its history, its range of retailers, and its fine restaurants, Historic Biltmore Village has an international reputation.

It's the way shopping used to be - relaxed and enjoyable with top quality merchandise at realistic prices and wonderful customer service. Enjoy quaint tree-lined streets, brick sidewalks, open air dining, original houses from the 1900's, all combined with amazing collections of one-of-a-kind merchandise of true quality and value.
