The Blue Ridge Mountains at Primland

A Summit Retreat · September 21, 2026

Where to Stay

On the mountain, or near it

The Lodge at Primland

Set on 12,000 acres atop the Blue Ridge in Meadows of Dan, Virginia, Primland is the kind of place people remember. Championship golf, world-class shooting, a full spa, and a kitchen that knows what it’s doing—all above 3,000 feet with views that stretch into North Carolina. The Highland Terrace at sunset is worth the drive alone.

Where to Stay

Come for the day. Stay for the fundraiser. Stay on property at Primland if you can — no driving, no logistics, just the mountain. If you’re staying off-site, plan your transportation before you arrive. The roads in and out are winding mountain roads and rideshare is not reliable in this area.

Off-site rates were pulled live from each property’s own booking system on August 20, 2026 for the night of the retreat. Campground rates are the property’s published starting prices rather than a dated quote. Hotel and cabin rates move, and the smaller places fill first — confirm before you count on one.

Pro Tip

Olde Mill Golf Resort — play a second course, sleep on it

If you are coming in a day early or making a golf trip of it, Olde Mill in Laurel Fork is the local pick — and it solves lodging and a second round at the same time.

The course

Eighteen holes designed by Ellis Maples, open since 1973. Bent-grass greens, bluegrass fairways, water in play and a lot of bunkering. A genuinely good mountain course at a fraction of resort pricing.

The lodging

Condos overlooking the 18th green, four-bedroom Birdie Lane cottages, cabins and a three-bedroom lodge — most with full kitchens. Built for groups, so a foursome can share a cottage instead of booking four rooms.

⚠️ Before You Book Off-Site

🔝 Cell Service Is Spotty

Download offline maps before you leave home. Navigation is unreliable on the mountain.

🏔️ The Roads Are Serious

The first 20 minutes in and out of Primland are winding mountain roads. After dark and after drinking, they are unforgiving.

🍷 Plan Before You Arrive

If you expect to drink, stay on property or arrange a sober driver in advance. Preplanned transportation can be coordinated — ask the event team.

🚕 No Last-Minute Rideshare

Uber and Lyft are limited or unavailable in Meadows of Dan, especially late at night. Do not book off-site lodging assuming you can catch a ride at 11 PM.

🏛 The Road Is Better Than Ever

Your drive in on US-58 takes you through the newly widened Lovers Leap — a $300 million, 7.4-mile mountain-moving project that transformed one of the most dramatic stretches of highway in Virginia from two lanes to four. Branch Civil finished the job ahead of schedule, moving more mountain than most people will see in a lifetime. The road you’ll drive on September 21 is brand new. Enjoy it.
