THE AREA HISTORIC GREENBRIER COUNTY Lewisburg, the Greenbrier County seat, was voted the Coolest Small Town in America, combining the warmth of a close-knit community with the sophistication of more urban locations. The thriving downtown historic district offers year-round live productions presented at the State Professional Theatre of West Virginia, Carnegie Hall, distinctive dining venues, antique shops, award-winning galleries and boutiques, and a year-round farmers' market. Greenbrier Valley Medical Center is a modern hospital, along with various medical facilities, and many big-box stores. Lewisburg is also home to the modern Robert. C Byrd Medical Clinic (300 employees), the WV Osteopathic Medical School (600 students), and the New River Community and Technical College. The area is a strong economic generator, with a solid workforce employed in county and state government, tourism, hospitality, medical, education, retail, construction, wood products, mining, and agriculture. The world-renowned Greenbrier Resort, with 800 rooms and 1600 employees, is located in the sleepy little town of White Sulphur Springs. The 4-star resort features a subterranean casino and occasionally hosts PGA-LIV golf tournaments. Several other area golf courses are available in the area, including Oakhurst Links, America's first golf course, where guests play using old-style hickory-handled clubs and ground-burrowing golf balls. A picturesque train ride from White Sulphur Springs connects the area to DC, Philadelphia, Chicago, and many other locations. By car, DC is 4 hours away, and Charlotte is only 4 hours. Within a two-hour drive are located some of the finest recreational facilities in West Virginia. Winterplace Ski Resort, whitewater rafting/fishing on the New River and Gauley River, 2000-acre Bluestone Lake, Pipestem State Park and Resort, and the 80,000-acre New River Gorge National Park. Five other area state parks and state forests offer unlimited opportunities for hiking, horseback riding, ATV riding, and rock climbing. Snowshoe Ski Resort is a 120-minute drive through some of the most scenic country on the East Coast. The new 12,000-acre Boy Scout High Adventure Camp, home to the US and World Jamboree, is a 90-minute drive. GREENBRIER RIVER The property is a short drive to the Greenbrier River. At 162 miles long, the Greenbrier is the longest untamed (unblocked) river left in the Eastern United States. It is primarily used for recreational pursuits and is well known for its fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and floating opportunities. Its upper reaches flow through the Monongahela National Forest, and it is paralleled for 77 miles by the Greenbrier River Trail, a rail-trail that runs between the communities of Cass and North Caldwell. GREENBRIER RIVER TRAIL The property is near the Greenbrier River Trail State Park. The West Virginia State Parks operate the 77-mile-long trail, which is a former C&O railroad grade now used for hiking, bicycling, ski touring, horseback riding, and wheelchair access. The trail passes through numerous small towns and traverses 35 bridges and two tunnels as it winds its way along the valley. Most of the trail is adjacent to the free-flowing Greenbrier River and is surrounded by peaks of the Allegheny Mountains.
