We chose to stay at The Homestead for a very special anniversary. After traveling the interstates, it was relaxing to travel the last fifty miles on a lovely, winding mountain road with breathtaking scenery, passing through small villages, and finally descending to the impressive view of The Homestead. Even though we arrived early, the front desk clerk greeted us with... More

Four of us went to the Homestead for a few days of golf. I had always heard of the Homestead and was excited to experience it. Unfortuately I didn't think it was up to it's wonderful history and reputation. The hotel has a wonderfeel, it's just a bit tired. Our room was in the "newer" wings but still a bit... More

What can be said for a place that almost 300 years old, wonderful. So when you finally arrive after the incredible ride up the mountain you arrive back in the past.

Thank you for providing such a great, comprehensive review of our historic resort! It sounds like you were able to take in a little bit of everything (there is a lot to do here). Although you stayed on business, we are pleased to hear that you were able to take some time away to enjoy yourself. Come back soon! More

We stayed for three nights and enjoyed it. The service was excellent and every employee worked hard to be sure we had a good time. The food at the breakfast buffet was plentiful but nothing unusual...except for the homemade doughnuts which were great. We had a suite with a veranda which was wonderful. The activities were plentiful. Unfortunately the weather... More

We visited the Homestead a year ago for a business conference and while a few things have changed, there is still a ways to go before it gets a very good or excellent rating.
