The Greenbrier: America's Resort

Nestled in the mountains of White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia is an all American resort perfect for family vacation. In every single way. Anything and everything you could possible dream of is a reality here.

My parents had visited The Greenbrier several times for business and had been itching to do a family trip here. After a few years of attempting to coordinate schedules, we finally made it happen. A short 8 hour drive through 6 states and we arrived on Sunday afternoon to kick off the vaca, our last without a baby!

don't mind the ghetto-ness that took place on the way to GB


Our cottage, equipped with 4 separate bedrooms & baths, a kitchen, family room, front & back porches, fits the family of 12 like a glove. Privacy for each couple is key for nap-taking, prepping for the Olympic events, and romantic activity. The kitchen provides easy breakfast and lunch opportunities as well as snacking...especially for the kiddos. And the living room creates lots of laughs, game playing, and memories for a lifetime.





The grounds are stunning with mountainous views, gorgeous decor & architecture, 5 star facilities (from tennis courts to golf courses to croquet lawns to bowling alleys to indoor & outdoor pools to first class spa). Activities cover a broad range from shuffleboard to hiking to skeet shooting to biking to horseback riding to carriage rides to laser tag. Let's not forget the casino as well as the plethora of shops and delicious restaurants. And perhaps the most exquisite part of the entire place is the good ole' Southern hospitality and service of the all-star staff.





We could not have asked for a better vacation with our family and last pre-parenting hoorah. Just the right amount of fitness, relaxation, laughs, and bonding. Definitely looking forward to making The Greenbrier a regular vaca spot for our ever-growing family!
