About Us
The Name
The name Piedmont Grove reflects the land that surrounds us and the roots of the community we call home. ``Piedmont`` is an area at the base of the mountain, thus pays homage to the stunning Blue Ridge Mountain Range that we are tucked in. As you gaze out from your suite, you'll be filled with a sense of wonder as you witness these majestic mountains enveloped in a blue mist that gives them their name. They are the second oldest mountains in the world.
“Grove”, is a nod to the deeply rooted Beech Grove Community, where many generations ago, farming was the main livelihood and tobacco was the cash crop. Where apple orchards once were, now are vineyards growing grapes, farming, and cattle grazing. Today, the community remains very close knit with many of the same families still residing in Beech Grove.
``At Piedmont Grove, Community is Our Compass``
At Piedmont Grove, our commitment extends far beyond providing exceptional lodging experiences. We actively engage in various community support and awareness programs, aiming to make a positive impact where it matters most.
From partnering with Nelson County Public Schools to support education initiatives to contributing to the Nelson County Food Pantry to combat food insecurity, we strive to address critical needs within our community. Additionally, our collaboration with the Nature Foundation of Wintergreen and participation in the Adaptive Ski Program at Wintergreen Resort exemplify our dedication to promoting outdoor recreation and inclusivity.
By nurturing and empowering our local community, we contribute to the growth and prosperity of Nelson County, ensuring a brighter future for generations to come. Join us in making a difference at Piedmont Grove, where community is our compass.
“Waste in Mind”
We have put our minds to waste and we wish to limit the amount of it at Piedmont Grove. Here are a few simple measures we are taking to ensure our impact is minimal:
Coffee Pouches instead of plastic coffee pods
Coffee Creamer sleeves instead plastic creamer pods
Refrigerated Water Dispenser – limiting plastic bottles. Please bring your own favorite container to fill with!
Bamboo Paper Products-these break down easier, especially with our septic system!
