Primland
Rank: No. 43
The ideas of luxury and mountainside don’t always intertwine, yet at Primland in Meadows of Dan, Virginia, you’ll experience the very best of that combination. The rustic, farm-like resort is recognized as a retreat for world-class golf and gourmet dining, with an on-site observatory and outdoor activities on-site, showcasing its picturesque location in the Blue Ridge Mountains. While on the property, guests have the option to choose rooms with mountain views, or something less traditional, like a mountain home, cottage or a treehouse. // 2000 Busted Rock Road, Meadows of Dan

The Inn at Willow Grove
Rank: No. 42
While it once was a plantation house in the 1700s and 1800s, the Inn at Willow Grove has since transformed to a luxury resort and spa with just 25 elegant rooms and suites in the manor house and surrounding cottages. The hotel maintains its history through its antique-style interior design, and also its old-school way of life. Guests have the opportunity to participate in activities like horseback riding, exercise on the nearby walking trails, fishing and so much more. According to U.S. News & World Report, The Inn at Willow Grove is the second best hotel in all of Virginia. // 14079 Plantation Way, Orange

The Inn at Little Washington
