The Boar's Head
Overview
In a city as steeped in history as Charlottesville, Virginia—home to U.S. presidents, witness of the ravages of the Civil War and the burgeoning Virginia wine industry—it’s a significant achievement for a resort to rise in prominence. The Blue Ridge Mountain locale of The Boar’s Head would be enough to qualify such distinction, but this remarkable 573-acre property compliments the fresh mountain air and stunning scenery with gracious hospitality, gourmet cuisine and a sense of the past that doesn’t sacrifice a single modern amenity. Following a year of historical research and an additional six months of renovations, The Boar’s Head’s 175 guest rooms and suites are highlighted with relevant historic décor as well as all the modern amenities one could ask for. The resort’s championship golf course, on-site spa and expansive fitness center, 26 tennis courts and the University of Virginia and a fleet of activities—hiking, cycling, vineyard touring, hot air balloon rides—are also easily accessible.
Today, the original mill houses the Inn's acclaimed Old Mill Room restaurant and Bistro 1834, as well as 39 of the resort's 175 guestrooms.
