"We had such a lovely time at the Boars Head resort! The resort is beautiful! We enjoyed walking, riding our bikes and relaxing on the balcony! Wish we had stayed longer!"
This AAA 4-Diamond resort offers guests a historical vibe, with buildings on-site dating back to the 1800s and a host of activities — from swimming to hiking and tennis matches — plus modern amenities like marble bathrooms, in-room coffee makers and free Wi-Fi.
Rooms decorated in neutral hues with pops of bright color feature either a king or two queen beds, as well as colonial accents — like prints from the Revolutionary and Civil Wars — that mirror the resort's storied past.
Dining options at the Boar's Head run the gambit from casual bites at Birdwood Bar & Grill to more upscale fare at the resort's Mill Room restaurant. Although there's no shortage of on-site activities, the University of Virginia is less than 10 minutes away. In addition to strolling the school's historic campus, guests have complimentary access to UVA's 33,000-square-foot McArthur Squash Center.

It was very relaxing. There was a lot to do but we just wanted to get away and relax. The beautiful Christmas decorations were still up so we walked around and took them all in. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The room was FULLY staffed with every imaginable need you could possibly have. We will definitely go back and recommend it to family and friends.

The only downside is we were placed in a room directly below where someone else was staying and it was loud.

Even with COVID it was a good experience. They aren’t providing valet or maid service, but we made due. Fine for a weekend. Ovi, in the Mill Room always provides amazing service!

Had to call 3-4 times prior to our stay before I could get someone to pick up phone, and front desk was unattended in the evening. I understand no valet service, but when you see a small women struggling with a large luggage cart to get it all into the lobby, it would be nice if someone at least helped with the door!

The staff was lovely. the resort looked nice but our trip was short and we didnt experience much beyond the room and the restaurant (which was quite good. We were very disappointed with the actual room. It was small, noisy and our view was a tar paper roof and HVAC ductwork

I honestly can't believe the view we were given even exists at a resort of this supposed reputation. Fortunately we were only staying briefly but I would have been furious at the assigned room if we weren't in and out in 12 hours

We wish there was an indoor pool and hot tub to cater to visiting adults like us in colder season. The pool available is normally heated but is getting fixed so we didn't get to swim at all during our visit. Swimming was one of our plans that didn't happen :(

This is an older resort. There was hair in the shower. The room was in a separate building, so if you wanted to go to restaurant, you had to drive or walk to main building. Rooms were just outdated- nothing special. I looked up prices of some surrounding hotels and I could have stayed at a cheaper rate at a newer hotel with the same amenities that I used.

Had a very enjoyable time on our recent trip to the area - the only thing that would/will keep me from going back was the mattress in the room we stayed in (#723). It was a King size but was extremely soft and dipped in on both side like you were in a little bit of a hole. We both suffer from back issues and had sleepless night and with a lot of back pain. Other than that, everything was good. I did say something upon checkout, but didn't seem overly concerned, don't know if my comment went anywhere except the front desk!

Great value. We have been unable to get a room here previously. Travelzoo offer came as we were planning a safe trip to see leaf colors. Services were limited and we were not able to get our free drinks.

Dining options were traditional and uninspiring. Beautiful setting and we really enjoyed the balcony.

Mediocre. Setting was pretty but service not up to par and several mistakes made with restaurant bills, check out etc. Food in the Mill Room was unremarkable for the price. Glad you offered this special but it would not be our first choice for a place to visit again.

Very noisy outside of the room (maids, etc.) We enjoyed the complimentary wine offered with Travelzoo special. My husband ordered another glass (preparing of course to pay) and the bartender persuaded him to try another Virginia wine that was only a "few dollars" more per glass. We were charged $22.00 for one glass of Petit Verdot from the neighboring Thomas Jefferson winery. We have dined all over the world and found this insulting that they would overprice the serving so high. The full bottle at the winery was only $28.95 for the same year. Ridiculous upcharge so the bartender could get a bigger tip. Sort of spoiled the experience for us.

We enjoyed our stay very much. There is so much to do around the nearby Charlottesville, however, we chose to remain at the resort. We enjoyed a glass of wine on their outdoor patio near the fire pit and at the bar/fireplace, walked the groomed trails around the resort, and enjoyed a delightful breakfast at The Mill. It was such an easy out-of-town getaway, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again!
