The Omni Homestead Resort The Omni Homestead Resort

More than a lodge, The Omni Homestead Resort is a living museum. Follow the path of Thomas Jefferson and countless others who relaxed and recharged amidst Virginia's Allegheny Mountains.

Nestled in the Allegheny Mountains of Virginia, The Omni Homestead Resort might just as well be called the Instead. From fly-fishing and shooting to bowling and billiards, there's always something to do instead of relaxing in your room. It's almost a shame, neglecting your sun porch and fireplace. But alas, the golf course is calling.

In fact, three courses are - each of championship caliber. Waste no time to hit the Cascades Course, among the world's finest mountain courses and breeding ground of the late Sam Snead, the legendary golfer who won seven majors throughout his career.

The Homestead Spa, one of the country's oldest, blends centuries-old sophistication with the newest, most innovative treatments. Massage, body, and hydrotherapies are offered alongside a soak in the "Jefferson Pools," named after Thomas Jefferson's 1818 visit. According to Jefferson, the story goes, the waters are of "first merit."
