We couldn't wait to tour the grounds and burn off our breakfasts of coffee and croissants.
The President's Cottage and Museum can be easily spotted due to the American flag. The Greenbrier has hosted 26 of the 44 Presidents.
The Springhouse logo is used throughout the resort.
Magnificent mountain views.
EAS & BLS
The Greenbrier Clubhouse
The workout facility and indoor tennis courts.
Where the horses are brought for trial rides.
I fell in love with Café Carleton because it reminded me of the Carlyle Hotel in New York, another one of Carleton Varney's design projects. Dorothy Draper had an apartment at the Carlye and was was asked to re-do the hotel in 1930.
I really liked the ambiance, red velvet chairs and photographs that lined the walls.
Café Carleton was a great place for salads, snacks and coffee.
