The famous facade of the Homestead Resort.

Recently named among the World's Top 5 Golf Resorts by Condé Nast Traveller magazine and ranked No. 1 in Virginia by Golf Digest, The Homestead boasts three championship courses. The Cascades course, designed by William S. Flynn, opened in 1923 and is consistently ranked among Golf Digest's and Golf Magazine's Top 50 courses in the nation.

The Old Course, opened as a 12-hole layout in 1892 and was later expanded to 18 holes by Donald Ross in 1913, is home to the oldest first tee in continuous use in America. The Lower Cascades features the work of Robert Trent Jones, Sr.

Play on three championship golf courses, one of which features the oldest first tee in continuous use in the U.S.

Additional recreational activities available through The Homestead include spa facilities, tennis, pools, fitness center, falconry, winter skiing and ice-skating, an equestrian center, 100 miles of trails for hiking, biking or riding and a gun club offering trap, skeet and sporting clays.

The area’s ancient mineral springs remain an attraction to those who come to soak in their rejuvenating depths. Within the steep wooded valleys and high meadows, hikers readily spot raptors and migratory songbirds; bobcat and black bear; catawba rhododendron and rare mountain pine barren.
