Thoughtful accommodations
We had a wonderful stay in the condo. It was beautifully decorated, and so comfortable that we opted to stay in and cook for several meals after enjoying the town during the day. Hosts were clear about access instructions and responsive to any communication.

Classy place
This little loft was a nice retreat in between many towns that I needed to visit- hickory, Asheville. Spruce pine and green mountain. This place had a wonderful, clean and new feel to it. We thoroughly enjoyed the oasis after long days of running around.

We LOVE Lofty Expectations!
Lofty Expectations is a lovely condo in the heart of Burnsville. We decided on a whim to visit the Biltmore and found this condo to be the perfect place to stay for the weekend. Beautifully decorated, fully stocked with everything you need and best of all conveniently located. We enjoyed going to the Saturday farmer's market, shopping in the local stores (Burnsville Candle Company & Something Special Gift Shop were our faves) and the pizza at Hog Hollow Wood Fire Pizza was delicious. We will definitely visit this adorable town again and when we do we will absolutely stay at Lofty Expectations!

Mountain Getaway
My husband and I were set on exploring the area and had read good things about Burnsville. First of all, the condo is gorgeous and has everything you need. It is spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The town is so friendly and there are several good restaurants/bars all of which we could walk to from where we were staying. Second, Burnsville is a great spot to stay. We hiked 4 different trails on as many days, and saw Biltmore another and all were easy to get to from town. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful. We hope to return!

Anniversary Trip
We had a relaxing and enjoyable getaway at Lofty Expectations. The condo was immaculate and contained everything we needed. We stayed for three days, and did not need to drive anywhere. There were several casual restaurants, a craft brewery, a tap room, shops and bookstores all within walking distance. All communications with the hosts were answered promptly, and Carrie and Jeff were welcoming and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we have the opportunity to return to Burnsville.

Amazing place, lots of love and care was put into design as well as being very welcoming! We could not have asked for a better location, being above Appalachian Java sure was a bonus! We can’t wait to book again!

A Lovely Space
This beautifully decorated space in a cool building right at the center of downtown was perfect for my son and me. The apartment was very nicely appointed, with everything that one would need. It was very comfortable as well as being lovely. It was also located so that we could walk to restaurants and shopping. It was a great experience!!

This beautiful loft condo was awesome. The owners were easy to communicate with and were timely with responses. The condo was very spacious, "home away from home", great walking location to many shops and restaurants. We're looking forward to a return trip and staying longer than a weekend to enjoy all the outstanding amenities of this condo and the surrounding area. Thank you for your gracious and warm hospitality.
