Today many of the original cottages
are preserved as guest accommodations, although enlarged and modernized. In
1913, the central Georgian section of The Greenbrier opened on a year-round
basis, with golf and tennis as featured attractions. Subsequent additions to
this National Historic Landmark have refined the hotel’s architecture to reflect
the Colonial Virginia style. Following use as an army hospital during World War
II, the hotel’s interior was redecorated by Dorothy Draper.
