In anticipation of its 250^th anniversary next year and in honor of the United States’ birthday month, The Omni Homestead Resort is marking the occasion with special “1766” celebration. That’s right: 1766.

Founded a decade before the American Revolution, America’s first resort has been welcoming guests with unparalleled hospitality and southern charm since 1766. Nestled on a 2,300-acre setting in the Allegheny Mountains of southwestern Virginia, the iconic property in the quaint town of Hot Springs has hosted a number of important figures, including more than 20 presidents, royalty, dignitaries and celebrities, since the 18^th century.

Vacationers are invited to experience one of America’s most storied resorts and choose from more than 30 resort activities to enjoy with discounted midweek rates starting from $176.60 per night. Available for booking through the end of July with stay dates through end of the August, the resort’s limited-time offer is valid for stays Sunday through Thursday.

In addition to luxurious overnight accommodations and a wide array of fine and casual dining venues, guests of the 483-room property can enjoy a variety of recreational amenities including archery, falconry, horseback riding, golfing on one of two famed courses, tennis and a two-acre water park complete with lazy river, water slides, family pool and water play zone.
