You could stay at home for Thanksgiving, slaving away over a hot oven and preparing your home for an onslaught of guests, or you could fly the coop and head to a plush hotel that will take care of your every holiday need-including preparing a tasty feast.
But while many hotels offer Thanksgiving dinners and packages, a few truly stand out when it comes to the cuisine, thanks to access to their own on-site farms that grow everything from pumpkins to squash to potatoes; some even raise their own cattle and poultry. So to indulge in a true farm-to-table holiday feast, complete with lavish accommodations, gather your crew and head to one of these eight luxurious farm hotels in the U.S. that are hosting gourmet Thanksgiving spreads.
The Allison Inn & Spa
Less than hour outside Portland, in, Oregon’s Willamette Valley wine country, lies The Allison Inn & Spa. Surrounded by picturesque vineyards, the upscale hotel is home lo one of the best spas in the region (book a vinotherapy treatment for the day after Thanksgiving- you’ll thank us later), and the award-winning restaurant JORY, which is supplied by a 1.5-acre organic chef’s garden. Everything from saffron to kale to tomatoes are grown on the farm, which includes a large greenhouse. Guests can wander through !he garden on their own, or request a tour with the farmer. On Thanksgiving, tables will be laden with the fresh bounty in the form of dishes like garden celeriac soup, turkey with apple-walnut stuffing and broccolini, whipped sweet potatoes, and white chocolate bread pudding with cranberry compote – with each main course paired with a Willamette Valley wine.
