Paint Bank Vacations from $581

Room was fine. Amenities wasn’t great.

It is a very nice hotel. Many people may not know that mountain Lake no longer has water. Our room was good size, updated and nicely two beds. But we had to request a refrigerator. And there was no TV in the room. The bar is nice but small. It has the only TV in the hotel. And World Series was on

I have been to the Homestead many times since the 1980´s, but this was my first visit since the Omni bought the property. It is good the hotel was full and many families enjoyed their holiday, but the experience was notably less exclusive than it used to be. It felt more like a Disney cruise than a luxury resort. The cuisine and service level was not commensurate with the prices. We had to send a $75 steak at Jefferson’s back three times to get it cooked to medium rare. Thanksgiving dinner was in a huge banquet room with 1,000 people, dogs, vinyl chairs, and tepid food. The only really top notch event was the Virginia wine tasting. But I doubt we will be ever be returning just for that alone.

The place is very close to the natural bridge, (4mi) and close enough to Lexington as well. The rooms are a bit dated, the bed had a burn mark (non smoking room...?) and it allows pets. The room next door had a dog that kept barking every time I moved around my room. There are probably better options out there.

Absolutely loved my stay! The rooms were spotless, the staff went above and beyond, and the location was perfect for exploring the city.
