Despite a Challenging Economy, the Greenbrier Sporting Club Breaks Records in January Real Estate Sales

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 00:12:11 -0600

Despite a challenging economy, The Greenbrier Sporting Club experienced a record-breaking weekend in real estate sales for January, a month typically slow in land transactions.

The private residential community, located on the grounds of The Greenbrier, contracted $4.1 million in real estate over the course of a single weekend, January 22-24. The sale of a total of 11 properties, with an overall value of $7,685,000, are pending or have closed since January 1, 2010. The Greenbrier Sporting Club also saw a strong finish at the end of 2009 with 20 homes and/or home sites closed within a six-month time frame.

“The biggest buying factors continue to be the unparalleled value found here and the incredible excitement that continues to build at the resort,” said John Klemish, principal and broker in charge at The Greenbrier Sporting Club. “We believe lowering our membership initiation from $140,000 to $100,000 was also instrumental in achieving this level of success.”

The Greenbrier has also seen its own jump in activity for the first month in 2010 with daily calls and reservations for social visits up over 400% compared to the same time in 2009 while group room sales are on pace to more than double group reservations from last year.

“We are setting new standards for both private residential communities and luxury resorts,” said Jim Justice, chairman and owner of The Greenbrier and Greenbrier Sporting Club. “With the addition of Prime 44 West, The Greenbrier Classic and the new 80,000-square-foot underground entertainment venue, featuring an elegant Monte Carlo-style casino, restaurants and upscale designer boutiques, we have created even more reasons to visit the resort. The excitement about everything happening here is simply phenomenal.”

“The Greenbrier Sporting Club is one of the few developments in the United States being infused with millions of dollars,” said Klemish. “While other residential developments are faltering, we have financial stability and this is a huge contributor to our success. Many families are rediscovering that the place to be is The Greenbrier and if someone wants to own a part of The Greenbrier legacy, the time is now.”

The Greenbrier Sporting Club is a private residential sporting community on the 6,500-acre estate of The Greenbrier, an award-winning resort in the heart of the scenic Allegheny Mountains.

A Holiday Extravaganza at The Greenbrier

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 00:06:22 -0600

The Greenbrier's first annual tree lighting event was a great success. It was cold waiting for Santa to appear for the tree lighting, but we were entertained with Christmas carols by Frank Cappelli and Company, and served hot chocolate and apple cider.

When Santa appeared at 8:30 p.m., he thanked everyone for coming out to help celebrate this event and for bringing a "Toys for Tot" gift. Santa and the crowd counted down and the lights of a 90 foot tree came on, as well as the lights for all the animated holiday displays. To my surprise, The Greenbrier's entrance was all lit up as well. It was indeed a holiday extravaganza.

The 90 ft Christmas Tree is in the background

The Greenbrier Lights Up

Afterwards, my husband and I go inside The Greenbrier, not only to get warm, but to see all the Christmas decorations. Plus, all the retail stores stayed opened til 9:00 p.m. With the Christmas music inside, and hot chocolate and cookies being served, and seeing our friends and neighbors, it truly was a fun time and a great evening for all.

As a reminder, don't forget the public is invited to attend The Greenbrier’s holiday concert series featuring performances by the American Boychoir, Kanawha Kordsmen Chorus, harpist Leah Trent, Mt. Laurel Women’s Choir, James Monroe High School and Frank Cappelli & Company. The concerts will be held at 8:30 p.m. in the Chesapeake Room on December 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 16.

A Wedding on New Year’s Eve – What a Celebration!

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 17:06:31 -0600

What a way to celebrate New Year's Eve. We attended two great events on this day. First, our nephew, Todd Gaujot married Tracy Miller, in Lewisburg, WV. It was a small wedding held at the Lewisburg United Methodist Church. The bride had changed clothes after the photo shots of the wedding party, but wore the bridal veil all evening.

Secondly, we attended the reception dinner held at the Greenbrier Resort, The Greenbrier, is an award winning, five-diamond luxury resort and hotel in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

This was really a special New Year's Eve, and a great way to ring in the New Year! Celebrating a wedding, and dinner and dancing at this great resort.

I hope you all had a Happy New Year's Eve night, and spent it either in the quietness of your cozy home with family, or celebrated the evening with a bang, as we did.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous year in 2009.

Greenbrier Resort has a New Owner

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Thu, 07 May 2009 22:55:12 -0500

For months now, people in the area have been talking about the Greenbrier Resort and the financial problems. It was a known fact that Marriott International, Inc., was really interested in buying the resort. But, today we heard different.....a West Virignia businessman buys the Greenbrier Resort, located in White Sulphur Springs, WV.

Jim Justice, Lewisburg, WV, is the new owner of The Greenbrier Resort. Jim is one of the most successful business people in West Virginia, growing coal and agriculture businesses that have made him a millionaire many times over.

Last month, Greenbrier Hotel Corp. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, citing the weak economy and its toll on luxury travel.

"Our near-term goal is to give The Greenbrier a fresh start," Justice said in a statement. "Even though the current economy is taking its toll on the resort, we are going to take a long-term view by focusing on reclaiming our five-star status and making the right investments for future growth."

The historic Greenbrier dates back to 1778. The resort, a National Historic Landmark, has hosted presidents, movies stars and royalty.

The resort is located on 6,500 acres in West Virginia's Allegheny Mountains, and has more than 800 rooms, suites and guest houses.

A Day of Shopping at The Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs, WV

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 23:24:46 -0500

My brother, niece, husband and I visited The Greenbrier Resort over the weekend. It was just for a day to show my niece, Hannah, this fantastic resort only ten miles from our home in Lewisburg, WV.

My niece was very impressed with The Greenbrier as we walked through the halls. She was amazed at the beautiful, fresh bouquet of flowers on the tables throughout the Resort.

Hallway Formal Dining Room

We loved the shops especially the women's clothing and jewelry shops. Our favorite stop was the Greenbrier Gourmet Shop where you will find everything for the kitchen, including food. Even my husband and brother liked this store.....for one reason....the food. While they enjoyed a cup of Starbucks coffee at the Gourmet Café, located inside the Gourmet Shoppe, my niece and I browsed through the Greenbrier's unique line of signature products. The Gourmet Shoppe carries the latest cooking tools and utensils, along with a vast selection of cookbooks.

While at the Greenbrier Gourmet Shoppe we were lucky to see a culinary demonstration by Michelle Masters. Michelle has been a Greenbrier Chef for 19 years, and was in the process of a demonstration. We were going to go to lunch, but decided to watch Michelle prepare fresh salmon and asparagus. It is always fun to watch food being prepared and you can always get some great tips....not to mention a sample.

Needless to say, I bought the skillet and sauces that were used to prepare the food. The food was prepared perfectly and everyone received a small plate of salmon and asparagus. Ummmm .....it was absolutely delicious.

Here is the recipe for the Wasabi Salmon:

One 6-8 ounce salmon filet
1 Tablespoon Greenbrier Lemon Wasabi
¼ teaspoon Greenbrier Black Sesame Seeds
Remove skin and blood vein. Place skinside down on a plate and place Greenbrier Lemon Wasabi Sauce on top and spread evenly. Dust the salmon with the black sesame seeds and place in a baking dish. Cook at 350 for 10 minutes or until desired doneness. (Serves 1)

It is so delicious and easy to prepare. If you cannot find the Wasabi Sauce, call the Greenbrier Gourmet Shoppe (800-321-1168), and they will be glad to mail an order.

If you are a guest at the Greenbrier or just stopping in to shop, or eat at one of the great restaurants, stop by the Gourmet Shoppe, browse, sip a Starbucks coffee, and watch one of Michelle's demonstrations. Her kitchen is opened at 11:00 a.m. and again at 2:00 p.m., from Tuesday through Saturday.

Construction Underway for a New Casino at the Greenbrier Resort White Sulphur Springs WV

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 21:17:46 -0500

Driving into to the Greenbrier Resort today was different, as work is officially underway for the new casino. I really miss seeing the beautiful flowers as you drive into the resort. The flowers are gone, and replaced with a black fence erected to hide the construction work for the new casino.

The new 50,000 square foot casino is anticipated to open in April of 2010. The casino, like The Bunker, will be underground.

The Greenbrier's main entrance is now closed due to the construction work for the casino.

The North entrance of the Greenbrier will be the temporary main entrance until April of 2010.

The temporary entrance is just as beautiful with an abundance of beautiful flowers.

In April of 2010, The Greenbrier will be unveiling a 38 table, 320 slot machine casino featuring an elegant gaming environment, fine dining, nightly entertainment, and high end shopping. Only Greenbrier guests will be able to go to the casino. The Greenbrier’s sleek underground casino will be smoke-free and have a “high-end” dress code.

A South Norwalk architect firm, Shope Reno Wharton, is designing the casino for the Greenbrier resort. It will be absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to see the completed project.

Take the Train, Relax and Enjoy the Beautiful Scenery - White Sulphur Springs, WV

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 23:05:46 -0500

Take the train, relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery I told my friends. And, that is exactly what they are going to do. My friends in Alexandria, Virginia, are planning to take the train from Union Station in Washington, DC, to White Sulphur Springs this Fall.

The Amtrak’s Cardinal Line originates in New York and goes to Chicago. The train from Union Station to White Sulphur Springs, WV, operates three days a week -- Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday (both east and west bound). Departing Union Station at 11:10 am, and arriving in White Sulphur Springs at 5:00 pm.

The Cardinal offers unforgettable views of the Southeast's stunning natural beauty. You'll see gently rolling horse country, the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains, the Shenandoah Valley, and the wild white-water rivers of West Virginia as they can only be seen by train.

Choose a wide, comfortable Reserved Coach seat, or make reservations for Sleeper Service accommodations. Complete meals, sandwiches, snacks and beverages are served in the Dinette.

The train stops at 315 West Main Street, at the Christmas Depot Shop and right across the street from the main entrance of the Greenbrier Hotel. While waiting for the train or just arriving in White Sulphur Springs, be sure to visit the Christmas Shop. And, if you are not staying at the Greenbrier, stop for a meal or do some shopping.

The train fare for one way is $32.00 or $64 for a round trip fare. You can't beat the price. Think about it...it takes four hours to drive to Washington, DC. If you take the train, you can relax, eat, drink and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Looking for some luminous holiday ornaments? Visit the Greenbrier's Christmas Depot Shop in White Sulphur Spring WV.

Rebecca Gaujot Lewisburg WV Realtor (Coldwell Banker Stuart & Watts Real Estate) — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 23:14:40 -0500

Were does the time go - Christmas will be here before you know it. And, if you are looking for some luminous holiday ornaments, I know just where to go...... to the Greenbrier's "Christmas Depot Shop" in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

The Christmas shop opened at the Greenbrier in 1996 in a former historic train depot dating to 1931. The best thing about the Christmas Depot Shop besides the Christmas ornaments, collectible Santas, nutcrackers, water globes and holiday decorations, is that it is opened year-round. In each of the six rooms of the shop you will find beautiful decorated Christmas trees.

The shop, located directly across from the entrance of the Greenbrier Resort is recognized by the candy cane-striped posts and red and green Christmas-themed exterior. Not only does the Christmas Depot shine in the night with fairy-tale beauty during the holiday, it shines year round.

It still serves as a depot of sorts as the Amtrak Cardinal train continues to run by the Greenbrier three days a week. The first thing you will see when de-boarding the train is, of course, the Christmas Shop.

Stop by the Christmas Depot Shop and browse you may find some great holiday ornaments. Located at 315 West Main Street. White Sulphur Springs, WV.
