The Homestead Resort - Hot Springs

Steve’s take

Hot Springs, Virginia has natural thermal pools that people have been soaking in since George Washington's day. The Homestead Resort is fancy — the 'this is not our usual speed' kind of fancy — but the Jefferson Pools are open to day visitors and the experience of floating in a 98-degree natural spring in the Virginia mountains will make you briefly reconsider your entire lifestyle. About thirty minutes off I-64. A splurge stop for the right family.
