For exploring the town closer to the wedding, we recommend visiting some of our favorite places in downtown Burnsville. Homeplace Beer Co. is a must for pizza, wings, and delicious beer. For fantastic coffee, visiting Appalachian Java is a must. We also love Garden Deli, Snap Dragon, and Pig and Grits for all meal types. For fun shopping, visit Something Special or Monkey Business.
There is so much to see and do in Asheville but a visit to Biltmore Village is a must. Enjoy walking around the village for great dining and shopping. We recommend eating at the Corner Kitchen for delicious home cooking. We recommend a visit to the River Arts District or to West Asheville for the best breakfast at Biscuit Head but get there early! It's worth the wait!
With access only about 5 minutes from the heart of downtown Asheville, the Blue Ridge Parkway is a perfect way to experience the Blue Ridge mountains. Best experienced through hiking, picnicking, or taking a leisurely drive.
