We’ve said it a few times already this Christmas season, and are going to reiterate the “treat yourself” mantra with this pre-Christmas getaway to the Homestead. This is one of our very favorite places, considering its where I got married this summer. There’s just something about Hot Springs, VA and the Virginia Mountains that are always so welcoming. It was my first time here during the holidays and it was a truly magical stay.  From the gigantic tree in the Great Hall to the Gingerbread replica of the resort, everything was was just so Christmassy despite the 60 degree weather.

We can always count on the hospitality and friendliness of all of the staff and this time was no exception! Here’s a little photo diary of my stay this time – complete with Holiday decor, the beauty of the resort and our fantastic corner room with a view 🙂 Thanks again for a great stay, Omni Homestead!

The Homestead is celebrating their 250th anniversary this year and we cannot wait to go back and celebrate – not to mention enjoy a few cold brews in this special edition mug.

Have we mentioned we love the Homestead Amenities? The chocolate covered strawberries are always the best surprise!
