Shopping, shopping, shopping.....

 We gave you a hint of the shopping at the Greenbrier a few posts back, but let’s talk.  I mean, you are going to be there, so you may as well…..

The Retail Collection, here, lists of all the shops on the Greenbrier property, where you can access the interactive map (shown above and linked here). The stores and shops occupy the north  wing on the first floor, down the hall from the Registration desk, and in the entry to the Casino Club.  The Colony Shops are located out on the property on Alabama Row.  The Garden Gallery is down by the tennis courts, with fire bowls and other neat yard stuff.  Here’s the online shop for a little preview. 

If you are looking for shoes, and we know you are, Yarid’s at the Greenbrier has them.  Lots of them.  (You also might slip into the Lewisburg Yarid’s where you may find a sale or two).   The Greenbrier Gourmet Shop has lots of pots, pans, utensils, wine and sauces and other kitchen stuff – they also do cooking demonstrations, and have gourmet coffee and sandwiches.  There is a Ralph Lauren shop, Greenbrier Men and Women’s shops, and Fizzy's Land of Oz with toys and games for kids.  You can get golf, shooting and outdoorsy stuff.  There are two pretty high end jewelry shops,  one of which is located right next to the casino for winners.  There is a flower shop.  There is a Greenbrier Shop with everything from t-shirts to fleeces to sweaters, and hats, watches and bags bearing the Greenbrier logo.  (They also have most national papers, including the Washington Post and New York Times for sale by mid-morning).   If you left your shaving cream at home, they’ve got that stuff, too. 

Across the street from the Greenbrier Entrance is the original train station where you’ll find the Greenbrier Christmas Shop, which is a must visit for ornaments, and various and sundry Santas, Snowmen, candles, Christmas decorations and other stuff.  More on shopping in Lewisburg soon. 

Meanwhile, back at the Hotel, we are sold out of our ADTA block and then some, but you can and should still come.  Stay at the GeneralLewis, Hampton Inn Lewisburg or Fairfield Inns & Suites Lewisburg.  Great hotels within ten minutes of the Greenbrier and a hop, skip and jump into Lewisburg. 

Meanwhile, Get to the Greenbrier, ADTA, Get to the Greenbrier.
