More than 150 miles long, it has great rural scenery, rich history, and excellent fishing. The Greenbrier was a Native American warpath and had a big role in the development of the region's early timber industry. Today, it offers some of the best recreation opportunities in the state, including very productive fishing spots. The smallmouth fishing in the Greenbrier is world-class. On a typical fishing day, you'll see expert fly fishers tossing hand-tied flies from guided rafts, novices wading with push-button casting rods, and everyone in between. If you like to wade, you'll find many access points along the Greenbrier River. If you prefer to float, the river has great paddling on one of the longest undammed rivers in the east. Hinton is just 20 miles from the property. At Hinton, you will find shopping along three rivers and a lake: New River, Mouth of The Greenbrier River, Bluestone River, and Bluestone Lake. Also located in Hinton-Wild Water Express Water Park with two very tall waterslides, an in-ground pool, and a kiddie pool. A large in-ground pool at Bluestone State Park and the Indoor Pool at Pipestem Resort. Local Summers County Festivals are a popular event. The Water Festival is appropriately named every summer, along with Railroad Days, Festival of the River Music, John Henry Festival (Talcott), and more. Historic Hinton offers walking tours, an amphitheater, cafes, museums, boutiques, fine dining, a movie theatre, and a cultural center, all among turn-of-the-century architecture. Several streets in Hinton are paved with the original brick from bygone days.
