Memorable Sunsets
What better way to end the day than to watch the sunset with a meal or a cool drink from a lovely seat? The best show in town occurs nightly on the porch at Inn on Biltmore Estate. Reservations aren't accepted, so arrive early to snag a couple of green wicker rockers on the front row. Honorable mention goes to dinner on the Sunset Terrace at The Grove Park Inn Resort & Spa, where reservations are required. It can get hot here in July, though, so you may want to save this one for a mild day.

 

"Awesome Asheville" is from the July 2006 issue of Southern Living. Because prices, dates, and other specifics are subject to change, please check all information to make sure it's still current before making your travel plans.
