MOUNTAIN LAKE, VA.
Various hotels have graced the shoreline of
Mountain Lake in southwest Virginia’s Giles
County since 1857. William Lewis Moody had
the current sandstone hotel built in 1936, offering modern accommodations, decades before
the hotel became the site of scenes in 1987’s
“Dirty Dancing.” (Vintage photo courtesy of
Mountain Lake Resort Hotel; contemporary

GREENBRIER RESORT, W.VA.
This vintage photograph shows The Greenbrier as the West Virginia landmark looked when
it opened on October 1, 1913. Even then, the resort had been in existence for more than a
century. Today, in the modern hotel, events like fireworks remain a draw to the resort. (Both

GREENBRIER RESORT, W.VA.
GREENBRIER RESORT GAZEBO
As a getaway, as early as 1778, visitors came to The
Greenbrier in West Virginia with the belief that
drinking or bathing in certain kinds of mineral
waters would be akin to a fountain of youth. A
striking gazebo on the main lawn marks the resort’s
famous spring. That gazebo, in turn, has become
a trademark of this resort. (Both photos courtesy
of The Greenbrier.)
