Couldn't hate it... couldn't see it. Called and found out time of operation. Checked website...closed.We took the time out of our vacation to see this and closed. Apparently for a long time by the looks of the upkeep. Sad

Nice place for a local history lesson. Lots of artifacts to look at. They did a nice job with the rooms and displays.The docent did a good job telling us the history of the house.
The new Asheville Museum of History reopened on October 25, 2023 with a permanent exhibit on the history of Western North Carolina and a special exhibit on the life and works of Rafael Guastavino, who built domes and vaults in some of the most famous buildings in the US. He retired to Asheville after working on the Biltmore House.
