Dating from a crude inn established in 1766 at the site of therapeutic hot springs in the mountains of Virginia, The Homestead resort today comprises some 3,000 acres and includes three golf courses, a ski slope, tennis courts, shooting range, stable, theater, eleven shops, and many more amenities. Designated a National Historic Landmark, its signature Georgian architecture rises from the heart of the Allegheny Mountains as a singular vacation destination. This is the story of The Homestead as it has evolved from its eighteenth century beginnings to become a favorite place to visit for everyone from European royalty to generations of Americans who have made a stay there a holiday tradition.
Geraldine Hempel Davis worked for the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency, was the youngest woman on the production team of The Ed Sullivan Show, and was for several years a contributing correspondent for The Today Show. She is the author of the authorized history of The Today Show as well as The Moving Experience. She lives in Virginia.
