Reviews of Grovewood Village

Dan Miller

Nice place to visit for some history of the area. Details on the wool fabric mill. Also there is a car museum. We also enjoyed the shop with pieces of various things from fantastic craftsmen.

Steven Beaudry

Next to the exclusive Omni Grove Park Inn, this place is a find for anyone looking to acquire unique, quality art pieces from Carolina hand crafters or anyone who just loves looking at art. The Grovewood Art Gallery even let me bring my two dogs inside!! I bought about $300 worth of ceramic pieces and they were all high quality, well made, original pieces of art that anyone would be proud to display in their home or office. Prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly and helpful. The grounds are also the historic home of the old Biltmore Industries so it’s fun to poke around. I visited even though I wasn’t staying at the hotel. Parking is free and plentiful and the grounds are beautiful.

It was a nice little area. Bought a couple of things from the art gallery and the prices were reasonable for handcrafted goods. Friendly staff. Would have liked to have seen the museums.

Cynthia Waggoner

While there we visited the car museum, and the Homespun Museum. It is free to visit but I recommend a donation . Beautifully maintained museums and grounds.

Jennifer

Neat place to visit. The gentleman in the Car Museum was very friendly. The staff in the store was not very friendly, one especially. I still say visit, there's a lot of history here.

Oh, what a gorgeous place to feast your eyes on beautiful art of all kinds! From the sculpture garden out front to the two floors of inventive, beautifully crafted art indoors, it was a wonderful, visual treat to visit Grovewood Village. The staff were friendly and helpful. I pored over beautiful, one-of-a-kind paintings, furniture, pottery, and much more, wishing I had unlimited funds to buy the beautiful carved dresser, the playful koi bench, the fox painting on wood...and so much more! Visit Grovewood's web page for a taste of what you'll find on site. Better yet, make a personal visit, or two, or four.

Unique pieces of art. Friendly staff. Beautiful outdoor art for pics

Tommy Shinn

Whether you’re staying in the Grove Park area or you’re staying at the Omni Grove Park Inn make sure you check out Grove Wood Village. We had a spectacular time lots of art and history. Fun for all ages. If you’re staying at the grove park and they offer free shuttle service. Guest services should be able to help you locate the shuttle.

Giselle Santamaria

I loved this place. There are very interesting museums located at this village. You can enjoy here an awesome collection of old cars for free. Also can enjoy the work of many good local artists and buy their work. The nature that surround this museums is very beautiful too. I recommend this place as a good Sunday destination with family or friends.

Danielle Kazy

We thoroughly enjoyed walking around and seeing all the art work and building structures. Although the antique car museum was closed during the time we came. We came on tuesday and they open up Wednesday through Sunday. Its definitely a place to visit.

Virginia Stockwell

I'm not sure why previous reviews were mixed. The auto museum is stunning, even if cars aren't your thing. Next is the gift shop which is massive and so inspirational. The artist studios were closed. All the staff I encountered were so friendly and really wanting to help with information. Oh yeah and there's a cool little museum about textiles where you definitely start. The sculpture gardens are so cute and relaxing. Driving up to the village is also a treat. The homes are beautiful and well landscaped, each super unique.

Tina Leigh

There's free parking and you can explore this old village and see artist work and cool items to buy along with some history some of the history here is quite amazing it's a beautiful walk and it's a beautiful atmosphere.

J Hytken

Local craftsmanship and worth visiting for the exquisite array of furnishings, wind devices, jewelry, clothing and a few antiques. The antique car museum is also a must see! Check out the old firetruck and other vintage vehicles from the 20s through the 50s. Plan to spend at least a couple of hours and have lunch at the café.

Paul Wilczynski

We went to Grovewood Village to go to the Grovewood Gallery, which has a beautiful selection of furniture and pieces of art of different types. We purchased one for a gift and we’ll always go back to look for something special.

William Livingston

Great place to see and Purchase Art, Jewelry etc... Antique Auto Museum was closed upon my visit. If it had been open I would have gave it a 5 star.

Michelle Parmentier

This is a little shopping area at the Grove Park Inn. We didn't realize they had a small classic car museum! They had about a dozen classics in relatively good shape. Great information on all the vehicles. No charge to visit but they do have a donation box so be sure to drop in a few $$ to help keep this place open!

Ashley Stauffer

This museum is filled with so many beautiful cars. And the history was something that I can not even put words to. For those that have never been here it is definitely something to see. It is located behind the Omni Grove Park Inn. It is in fact all one place, it's confusing for anyone who hasn't ever been. Just park and take a long beautiful walk! 😍😍

Ed Stockwell

Loved the history, the art in place, the local artist offerings... And the staff were nice and engaging - always willing to share a story. Plus 1 for the drive in too - great views.

Vivi

AWesome car museum, amazing things at the art galleries.No fees to get in,just wear a mask.

Ting Zhao

A nice place to visit in North Asheville. Love the outdoor scupture garden. Car museum isn't open right now.

Jay DeBard

Nice antique car showroom and an art gallery nearby. Be sure to check out the hotel lobby and views outside.

Micky Gordon

A step back in time visiting the Car Museum. Loved it and friendly staff. The artistry in the village is creative and inspiring. A great history lesson on the early beginnings of Asheville money.

JC RXN

Known today as Grovewood Village, this historic site once housed the weaving and woodworking operations of Biltmore Industries, a noteworthy enterprise in the history of American Craft and textiles, founded by Edith Vanderbilt and two inspired teachers, Eleanor Vance and Charlotte Yale. Our 11-acre property, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is home to Grovewood Gallery, working artist studios, a sculpture garden, Golden Fleece restaurant, the Biltmore Industries Homespun Museum, and Asheville's only antique car museum.

Michelle Harris

This was a great place for a quick stop. Especially if you have a car lover in the family! It's free but donations are appreciated!

Matthew Woodle

Very cool place. ELDR restaurant is excellent. Purchased a new lamp at the gallery next door too.

Lauren Balle

Parts were closed, but the sculptures were nice to see. I enjoyed some of the art inside for sale, but didn't want to spend too much. If staying at the Grove Park Inn, I'd walk right on down and have a look around.

James Raby

Beautiful neighborhood! Be sure to check out the classic car museum and the art gallery where you'll see sime of the most beautiful handmade furniture!

Anthony Carlucci

Interesting information about the building of the Grove Park Inn and the families who lived here.

M2F

Fun place for a rainy day! Nice people. Fantastic art in the showroom/studio. Weird hours on most of the buildings on sight. Call ahead to make sure they’re open.

Shawn Watson

The art gallery has beautiful items and all for sale. Prices are for the well to do not average folks so it's a look but unable to buy place. The car museum had knowledgeable staff and cars are awesome. It's amazing too since 1 family owns all of them.

Adam Corson-Finnerty

A beautiful gallery with some of the finest glass work, and wood work you will ever see.

Carol Ramirez

A must do! Great experience, quiet, full of history and art.

Rhonda Wilson-Williams

Sculpture Garden is incredible. The Automobile Museum is a must if you’re even just a little bit interested in cars. Love that they support local artists in the Art museum. Enjoyed lunch on the terrace at the Grove Park Inn.

Bob Knight

Beautiful facilities. Great car museum. Art Gallery is terrific. Fantastic furniture at the art gallery. Lots of eclectic wood work and lighting products.

john pfluger

Cool places to explore. Helpful staff willing to engage in informative conversation.

stephanie thompson

Awesome place if you're in Asheville you got to visit botanical gardens is right down the road you could spend all day there. I couldn't believe it was donations only and I was very happy to give.

Bryan B

This is a fun little excursion. A walk back in time and a look at furniture from local artist that fits with the natural feel of the area

Randye Butcher Sr.

The best and most interesting venue outside of the Biltmore Mansion. Much better than Biltmore Village.

Sue Smith

Lovely gallery with local artisans' work. Interesting history of location along with fabulous antique car collection.

Andrew Wang

All in all a great place to visit. Went for the antique car museum, the homespun museum, and the gallery. Was not disappointed at what was offered. This place is full of history and it’s great to see a piece of history being preserved so well. The location is very good for us as we’re only doing a quick visit in Asheville. It’s not far from downtown, and parking and admission is free.

Tina Worley

O my goodness! It was amazing! The whole village had anything that you would want to do or need. A very upscale restaurant, a yoga studio, museums. This place is dated back in time, but brought up to date. It is absolutely beautiful!! The Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC is A MUST SEE! It's a gorgeous hotel and restaurant!

Glenn Waring

Enjoyed the car museum. Mostly 50s or older vehicles. The small textile museum is interesting too. The connected gallery has a wide selection of artistic products from local artisans. Be sure to visit the second floor of the gallery shop which display for sale some unique and fantastic furniture showing some great craftmanship and style.

Curt Pasfield

We really enjoyed our time here. The car museum was well done with some interesting cars. The mill museum had some nice examples of Roycroft furniture and other artifacts from the original mill. The gallery was amazing. Lots of awesome hand made furniture and such. Believe it or not our entire family enjoyed it.

Jen Gad

100 times worth the visit for the car and wool weaving museums! Kids and adults loved this attraction equally. Beautiful grounds complete with sculpture garden. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Alan Lemmons

Amazing art gallery and museums. Great historical buildings!

Jonathan Carter

This is a fun little outing! Come see a collection of old cars and if you come during one of their special events you can check out what the local artists were making! They also have a shop with handmade home goods, jewelry, furniture, and other cool items. This is a cool getaway in the heart of Asheville.

Richard Long

Excellent Arts and Crafts, some of the finest wood furniture I have ever seen. The Textile Museum was small but full of information and history. The Car Museum really fascinating. Some cars I had never heard of and very informative history plaques with each vehicle. An Absolute must see for anyone visiting Asheville. It is actually quite hard to find but is literally right next to the Grove Park Inn, although it cannot be seen from the hotel. I venture to say not many people know about this gem.

David Wootten

Car museum and art studio/shop was great. The Golden Fleece restaurant has been closed for 2 years!

David Simon

This is a neat little get away place that is hidden by the crowds and the Grove Park Inn. It is actually next to the Grove Park Inn, but on separate land. There is an art gallery, two free museums (antique car museum and Edith Vanderbilt's Biltmore Industries, which is who built the quaint buildings) and a restaurant.(the Golden Fleece) Parking is free. The lawn has artwork and places to sit and a great view. A hidden gem.

Angel Chandler

Beautiful location on the property of the Grove Park Inn. I was here to visit the Grovewood Gallery. I didn't have time to check out the other businesses. I'll definitely make a trip back for the other shops and museums.

David E. Sullivan

Great place to visit if you love art.

jw

A great destination for a day trip. Plenty of awesome art inside and out and lots of cool cars in the museum. Worth checking out if you're in the area.

Bill D

Lovey little area with interesting things to see and places to shop. Lots of local history.

Judi Jetson

Beautiful spot to stop and shop for fine crafts, grab a bite to eat and a greek-inspired restaurant, visit an antique car museum, or just stroll the sculpture gardens. Be sure to take the free tour of Biltmore Industries, which once made the finest cloth in the US, if you're there mid-day (Wed-Sat).

John Claleley

Great classic car musium , art and craft shop has beautiful and joyful pottery and ceramic art and wood furniture , definitely shouldn't miss this place if in Asheville NC .

Lots of old cars with detailed descriptions to learn about them and their history. They are very well taken care of and look great. The worker there was very friendly.

Jerry Lee

We ate lunch at Edison Craft Ales & Kitchen which was absolutely delicious with great portions. We really enjoyed the views of the Great Smokey Mountains from our table.

David Meadows

A wonderful area to visit within walking distance of the Grove Park Inn. They also provide shuttle bus. It has an art gallery, restaurant and a antique car museum.

The antique car museum spot on-donation only entry. The history of the woodcarving & homespun woolens were fascinating too bad they have become a lost art.
