UNFORGETTABLE PLACES TO STAY & PLAY A getaway in Virginia means unforgettable experiences, made even more special by out-of-the-box accommodations. These places will have you planning your next visit before this one ends. CREATIVE STAYS The mid-century modern yurt at The Chestnut in Basye is a forest hideaway that brings the outdoors in with sweeping views, a fireplace, and wraparound windows. For an even more immersive stay, check into one of the six furnished tipis at Sandy River Outdoor Adventures in Rice, each with heated floors, air conditioning, and a fire pit. Floating bungalows at BluFin Bungalows & Marina in Chincoteague rise and fall with the surf to lull you to sleep — but don’t worry, they remain docked. The glamping tent at The Retreat at Crabtree Falls in Tyro pairs comfort with a wild setting. Step out to birdsong and rushing water after a night in a plush bed with soft linens. In Independence, Dream Rock Silo is perfect for two: This four-story dairy barn features a round bedroom and lounge with panoramic mountain views in a rustic layout. Guests also have access to the grounds, garden, and a nearby creek. Far from city lights, the General Store at Belle Hampton Farm in Dublin invites stargazing, strolls across 284 acres, catch-and-release fishing, and 100% Back Creek Wagyu upon request. In Emory, The Emory House starts each morning with homemade breakfasts and snacks. Cozy Dream Rock Silo Riverview Inn 64 Virginia .org
