Olmsted's Legacy Lives on in The Ramble
Drawing inspiration from Frederick Law Olmsted's work across the country--from Central Park to the Biltmore Estate--The Ramble Biltmore Forest's landscaped parks, picturesque streets, and preservation of the region's natural beauty reflect a commitment to environmental consciousness and quality of life. As a tribute to the landscape architect's work as a pioneer in his field, all of The Ramble's streets carry names that pay tribute to his remarkable designs:
Explore the Blue Ridge Parkway
Within site of The Ramble Biltmore Forest's main entrance off of Hendersonville Road, the Blue Ridge Parkway waits with beautiful vistas, rare wildflowers, and countless hiking opportunities--and the residents of Asheville's premier gated community are able to enjoy unparalleled access to "America's Favorite Drive."
Asheville Gears Up For Bele Chere
Every summer, historic downtown Asheville transforms into the home of one of the Southeast's largest outdoor music festivals, and the annual event promises to be better than ever this July 24-26. Drawing more than 300,000 festival-goers every year, the 2009 Bele Chere line up is sure to please every musical taste. There will be four main stages featuring free live music from a range of genres. From reggae and rock to bluegrass and blues, Asheville will enjoy local and regional talent. Entertainment highlights will include The Afromotive, Charles Sayles, Highly Kind, Sons of Ralph (who played during last year's Summer Concert Series in The Ramble), and more.

Edwin McCain Kicks off the Summer Concert Series
When you think of big names in the music world, you might also think that you have to travel to Raleigh, Atlanta, or New York to attend the best concerts. When you live in The Ramble Biltmore Forest, however, you don't even have to venture beyond the gates to enjoy a night of entertainment. The Ramble, an Asheville gated community offering luxury homes and homesites, kicked off their 2009 Summer Concert Series on Friday, June 19th, with alternative rock singer/songwriter Edwin McCain.
