The Umstead Hotel And Spa - A Forbes Five-Star lakeside resort with farm-to-table dining and art-filled spaces
Situated on 12 acres of lakefront landscape, The Umstead Hotel delivers a Forbes Five-Star experience in Cary's pine-studded setting. This luxury property features 150 rooms and suites appointed with marble bathrooms, VertuoLine Nespresso machines, and mini-bars. The signature restaurant Herons has earned both Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond ratings, sourcing ingredients from 14 local farms including the hotel's own Two-acre One Oak Farm. A 1080-square-foot lakefront suite offers a furnished balcony, while the 1725-square-foot Presidential Suite includes a wine cooler and panoramic views. The Umstead Spa provides treatment rooms with coffered ceilings overlooking native landscaping. A small garden produces fresh herbs for the culinary outlets, while the art collection showcases works by Dale Chihuly. This Cary hotel sits 6 miles from Raleigh-Durham International Airport and maintains proximity to area attractions like PNC Arena and Lake Crabtree County Park.

“The Umstead Hotel And Spa strikes me as a place that understands luxury as both indulgence and escape, especially given its location near the William B. Umstead State Park, inviting a blend of manicured gardens and natural woodland. I'm particularly drawn to the hotel's dedication to incorporating art and nature so seamlessly, plus the fact that it's North Carolina's only Forbes Five-Star hotel speaks volumes. This feels like a genuine retreat, not just a place to stay.”
