One place not to be missed, The Grove Park Inn in Asheville.

Oh my - The Grove Park Inn. Stayed there for three days. Left early. We had dinner out on the terrace. It was beautiful. Unfortunately the waiter was a deranged man who was totally out of control. We sat there during dinner, with the other couple we were traveling with, and we were totally stunned at his behavior. We left early the next day!! I've never seen anyone like that outside of an institution.

I called the Grove Park Inn after we left and told them what had happened. They seemed to be familiar with the situation and sent us a letter asking us to come back for a weekend to stay gratis in their executive accommodations. No way would we ever go back.

A couple of years ago Obama went there for a weekend. I hope he got that waiter, although I suspect the waiter is either in prison or incarcerated somewhere.

Wow, sorry to hear that. We have only eaten in the dining room buffet.
Just 2 weeks ago we went to the Sat. night Prime Ribs buffet. Outstanding. The wait staff was excellent as it has been in the several times we've been.

Now that has jaded my enthusiasm for the GPI some though.
