Greenbrier County

Northern limits. The story of The Greenbrier begins at the spring of sulphur water that remains at the center of the resort property. It issues forth below the green dome of the white-columned Springhouse that has been the symbol of The Greenbrier for generations. Since 1778 people have come to “take the waters” to restore their health. For the first one hundred and twenty-five years the resort was known by the name White Sulphur Springs.
