Glowing with the holiday spirit, this dramatic head on view captures one of the finest resorts in the world. This National Historic Landmark has been entertaining guests since 1778 in the White Sulphur Springs area of West Virginia. The Greenbrier is surrounded by the Allegheny Mountains, offering complementary landscaping, championship golf courses, and a 6500 acre playground. Famous golfer, Sam Snead, established the Greenbrier as one of the world's foremost golfing destinations. The Old White Course was recently renovated, following an original design first laid out in 1914 by C.B. Macdonald. During mid summer, the resort now hosts the PGA'S Greenbrier Golf Classic.
