As a travel writer, I have been visiting
Wintergreen for over ten years. Of all the places I have been paid to visit,
Wintergreen is the only one special enough for me to return to again and again. After all those years of visiting, we recently decided to purchase a
condo for our family. And the one we were lucky enough to buy - on a mountaintop overlooking the Shenandoah Valley and the
Blue Ridge Mountain ranges in the distance - is by far the most beautiful we had ever seen. We call it HighRidge Retreat.
I knew I wanted one of the
Wintergreen's newest buildings, which have the best views in the entire resort. I also insisted on a
condo that did not require . . .

We rented Daphne and Don's retreat for friends who were attending our son's graduation, and they were delighted. My husband and I are also owners at Wintergreen, and we have seen many units there. This one is one of the best. It is more spacious than many, and the vista of distant mountains and sky from the windows gives a sense of vastness that invites true relaxation. Our friends enjoyed watching sunrises, and later in the day, distant heat lightning. They sunk into the comfortable sofa and just enjoyed the respite from their busy lives. Daphne was friendly and gracious in her telephone conversations about the arrangements for rental and prompt with sending the keys. She included helpful information about the unit and nearby recreational facilities. We will definitely use the unit again

The condo is beautiful and is appointed more conveniently than my own home! The views are hypnotic, and my husband and I spent almost the whole weekend sitting in the recliners and looking out the huge windows on the valley. The deck is also incredible. It was so relaxing watching the sun and shadows across the mountains. We also enjyed the fireplace. We will definitely be back - hopefully more than once a year!

Our visit was during the month of September, and the weather was perfect each day. The condo is beautiful, spacious, classy, and comfortable with breathtaking views. High Ridge Retreat is an ideal place to get away, relax, and enjoy God's magnificent creation!
Thank you, Don and Daphne, for offering such a fabulous "vacation home", as our 7 and 3 year old call it.
We look forward to returning in the future!

Dear Daphne and Don,
Thank you so much for sharing your condo, the spectacular views of the sunrise, the snow flakes (YES, IT EVEN SNOWED FOR US!), the beautiful valley below, and the clear views of the mountain and ski slopes. The combination was more than we could ask for!
Your condo, located on a beautiful high mountain ridge, is welcoming, cozy, comfortable and luxurious. The condo is well equipped and you are right...an absolutly gorgeous piece of driftwood hangs over the fireplace. Our son and nephew both want to move to HighRidge!
Thank you again for your hospitality. We live in Virginia Beach so you can count on hearing from us (and our friends) again!
With warm regards,
The McLaughlin Family
