Super good pizza and salads (I'm a huge fan of their Caesar and shaved beet salads), on the way to our place if you're coming from Charlottesville.

Not as stuffy as many other wineries in the area, and although the views are not spectacular the wine IS!!! My favorite is their "hopped Chardonnay" but they have a lot of other great wines too.

Breweries
My favorite local brewery! The Afton location is a full service restaurant that gets PACKED on the weekends, so I much prefer to visit their production facility, the Blue Mountain Barrelhouse, but either way they make great beer.

I'm not usually a cider fan but I do love Bold Rock- they have some great dry ciders and also lovely views and ambiance. Things have changed a lot due to COVID and they do get crowded on the weekends, so definitely do your research online/call ahead.

What can I say? They have a lot going for them, but the prices are way too high and the food is not that great if you ask me.

This place will really surprise you! They have an amazing "meadow" spot down by the river out back, some okay beers, and pretty good eats from their food truck.

Sightseeing
A year-round resort- Wintergreen offers skiing and snow tubing in the winter, golf, hiking, mountain biking, swimming, boating, and more in the spring/summer/fall. There are a few decent restaurants at the resort, but you will likely find better prices and variety in the valley.

Nice spot for running, biking, or even riding a horse! Great out and back flat packed gravel trail (I think it's 7 miles long?) that is not typically crowded. The trail is shaded and parallels the Piney River with some lovely water views.
