   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 the end of summer the resort had a successful partnership with the PGA Tour for 10 years as the Greenbrier Golf Classic.
   Billed as Queen of the Watering Places, this resort became the destination for the well-to-do during the 1800s. Attracting the Southern elite, the resort's sulfur waters were a sure cure for everything from ulcers to rheumatism. Today's 40,000 square foot spa focuses on treatments using natural essences, minerals and hydrotherapy. Taking advantage of the native sulfur waters, guests may enjoy a whirlpool, steam room or sauna. One of 30 worldwide spas that earned a five-star rating, the Greenbrier continues the 240 year tradition of therapeutic spa treatments. The Greenbrier Clinic prides itself optimal therapy and personalized care.
