The Greenbrier
White Sulphur Springs, W.V.
800-453-4858, greenbrier.com
Visitors have been coming to The Greenbrier since 1778, but the resort has stayed on top for 230 years by continually improving. A restoration of C.B. Macdonald's Old White Course has resurrected the mountain masterpiece, and last year also saw the debut of Hemisphere, with its world-class tasting menu, and the opening of the 38°80 nightclub. For all its changes, the Carlton Varney /Dorothy Draper interiors are still intact and visitors can still tour the resort's Cold War-era underground bunker.
