Winter looks good on Richard’s Retreat ❄️🔥
Snow falling outside, a crackling fire inside, and a steaming hot tub tucked into the woods — this historic log cabin is the definition of cozy mountain living.
From slow mornings by the fireplace to evenings soaking under the snow-dusted trees, Richard’s Retreat is made for unplugging, reconnecting, and settling into the quieter pace of winter.
✨ Wood-burning fireplace
🛁 Private hot tub year-round
🏡 Classic log cabin charm
🌲 Secluded mountain setting
If winter is calling, this is where you answer.

❄️ MLK Weekend at Wintergreen Resort ❄️
Cold weather has returned to the Blue Ridge, and our snowmaking team is taking full advantage of it. With crisp temperatures and fresh snowmaking, conditions are shaping up to be some of the best of the season heading into the holiday weekend.
Enjoy a full lineup of events including the Ribs and Jibs Rail Jam, live music at The Edge, DJ Boogie on the Blue Ridge Terrace, and more all weekend long.
🎿 With it being a holiday weekend, we recommend purchasing lift, rental, and tubing tickets in advance to guarantee your spot.
Make plans to spend your MLK Weekend on the mountain!
Thank you @monticellowinetrail for today’s tasting 🥂🍷🥂🍷 #virginiawine #winecountry #cville

The Monticello Wine Trail is featured in @southernlivingmag as one of the 10 Most Underrated U.S. Destinations! This article celebrates our rolling hills, vibrant wine community, and standout tasting experiences in central Virginia.
With Charlottesville named Wine Region of the Year by Wine Enthusiast in 2023, this recognition shines an even brighter light on the people, vineyards, and wines that define our region.
