“In the bleak midwinter, frost wind made moan, earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow, in the bleak midwinter, long ago…” So goes a lesser-known Christmas carol that catches the cold darkness of this time of year…broken by the warmth and light of the Christmas season! And while you can enjoy many displays around the state that honor the holidays, there might be no more intricately beautiful option this time of year than a trip to The Greenbrier.
America’s Resort, one of the oldest resorts in the nation, and known far and wide simply as The Greenbrier, this iconic inn is a great place to vacation any time of year….but especially at Christmas.

The Greenbrier goes above and beyond to deck their halls with boughs of holly…and Christmas trees, wreaths, bows, presents, miniature Christmas villages, and more.
