Kingsmill is a place steeped in honored traditions and genuine Southern hospitality. When the first English foot was placed in Virginia, it was here on these grounds that once served as a central part of the area’s plantation life in the 1600s through 1800s.
Today, Kingsmill Resort retains those magnificent traits inherent in Kingsmill’s early life with grand accommodations, gracious hospitality and stately service. The Resort’s Plantation Golf Course is routed along what was once the original Kingsmill Plantation, and other resort properties and features are similarly located on plantation grounds.
In 1969 Anheuser-Busch purchased 3,900 acres of James River land with plans to build a large brewery. As part of the land purchase agreement, Anheuser-Busch agreed to develop hundreds of those acres into what is now Kingsmill Resort.
In 2010, Kingsmill Resort was purchased by Xanterra, who is the largest national and state park concessioner in the United States. They are committed to practicing integrity and quality, while leading in environmental stewardship and creating unforgettable memories for their guests.
The success of a meeting is directly proportionate to the level of planning that goes into it. Which is precisely why meetings at Kingsmill Resort turn out so well.
Whether it’s a small group, a large convention, or a dynamic corporate retreat, a highly-trained and skilled staff stands ready. Both planners and attendees leave the resort with a true sense of accomplishment.
For gatherings of a select few to large scale conferences or conventions, Kingsmill Resort can host up to 450 and offers contemporary IACC-certified facilities, comfortable and inviting accommodations, a full palette of recreational activities, stellar service, and the unmatched beauty of a gorgeous James River location.
