Amangani
Jackson, Wyoming
One of Aman’s premier properties, the 2,471-acre Amangani features spectacular wilderness views supplied by the Grand Teton Mountain Range. The 40 suites and four private homes deliver breathtaking views of the Tetons.
The beautiful surroundings allow for endless outdoor activities, including horseback riding, alpine and cross-country skiing, guided treks, whitewater rafting, dog sledding, fly fishing and more.
Inn at Round Barn Farm
Waitsfield, Vermont
A 245-acre bed-and-breakfast surrounded by miles of lush green Vermont hills, The Inn at Round Barn Farm is an ideal place to indulge and relax in a picturesque setting. During your stay, you will experience farm-to-table dining plus year-round outdoor activities that the Mad River Valley is home to, from hiking and mountain biking in the summer to skiing in the winter. The inn itself only has 12 rooms, and select rooms feature a gas fireplace.
Lost Valley Ranch
Sedalia, Colorado
Lost Valley Ranch sits next to 26,000 acres of Pike National Forest in Colorado. The small front range town of Sedalia, Colorado, is located 30 miles south of Denver. Lodging options at the ranch include 23 private cabins fitted with traditional Western and designer furnishings.
You can make the most of the mountain setting by exploring the trails that run through the national forest. Or, take part in traditional ranch activities including horseback riding, fly fishing, archery, trapshooting and cattle roundups.
Lone Mountain Ranch
Big Sky, Montana
Lone Mountain Ranch is positioned between Big Sky Resort and Yellowstone National Park. The 27 stand-alone log cabins are spread out on 148 acres of Montana wilderness. During your visit, you will find numerous activities for summer (year-round fly fishing, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking) and winter (80 miles of Nordic ski trails). All-access tours of Yellowstone are available as well.
Primland Resort
Meadows of Dan, Virginia
Set on 12,000 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, Primland Resort is the ultimate remote mountain getaway. Accommodation options include 26 rooms and suites in The Lodge; three Fairway cottages; mountain homes that sleep two to eight guests; and even treehouses that overlook the Dan River.
On Primland’s grounds, guests will find a host of activities to choose from, including a championship 18-hole golf course!
The Point
Sarnac Lake, New York
With only 11 rooms total, The Point was built by the Rockefellers as a secluded woodland escape. Nowadays, it functions as an adult-only resort nestled on the shores of Upper Saranac Lake, secluded among the expanse of the Adirondack Mountains.
In spring and summer, you can explore the lake and all its activities including boating, fishing, waterskiing, swimming, kayaking and paddle-boarding. In the colder months, it’s tempting to cozy up next to the wood-burning fireplaces in each room. If you’re feeling more adventurous, brave the cold to test your skiing and ice-skating skills.
With so many beautiful resorts, only one question remains – which shall I visit first?
