WOW, WOW! Yep, this one definitely gets a WOW, WOW! It took me about a day to digest this place! I have never seen so many busy "Laura Ashley" - like patterns, with fanciful contrasting colors -- it was amazing -- and it was EVERYWHERE -- from the floors to the ceilings, from the walls to the couch, chairs, tables!! Once again, Alison did her travel magic and had the weekend booked with all kinds unique activities for us to do! Below is a photo of the bedroom. I was relieved to not find wallpaper on the ceiling!! The curtains, with its fine detail, contrasting pinks, and beautiful heavy silk (??) material, was my personal favorite!
We went skeet shooting in the morning (maybe my favorite!!), followed by an afternoon at the spa! Alison and I rallied for a little trail run that gave you great views of the resort from above. We also did a tour of the extra large bunker that was built during the Cold War, and is housed under the resort. Below, Eric and Alison strike a pose at the hidden wall/door that grants you access inside. We had an amazing dinner at the restaurant, followed by a night at the casino, in which Alison won big on the penny slots!
In the future there will be a dinner train that runs from DC to the Greenbrier, which sounds like a great way to get there. It is about a five hour drive from the city to White Sulfur Springs, West Virginia, home to The Greenbrier. And if you drive make sure you watch out for cops! Till the next adventure, and another HUGE thank you to Alison for making it all happen! Where are we going next??
I love it. Keep traveling =)
