The Economy And Vacations!

The economy is still hurting vacation hotspots like the historic Greenbrier resort, which has just filed for bankruptcy. The owners, CSX Corp had stop funding the resort because of the heavy losses. Now their in the process of being purchased by the Marriot for about $130 million. Hopefully the Marriot will have the funds to get this resort through the recession. After all this resort is a truly historic resort.

Visiting a resort like Greenbrier could be very costly, out of my price range, that’s why I would consider getting a few beach vacation rentals instead. Spending time at the beach at an affordable price is what I’m looking to take. Or maybe a vacation to Disney World Orlando, FL. Spending a vacation at the Greenbrier isn’t really a family hotspot, but it’s a really nice resort. But for the family I’m going to stay with the beach. And that’s what’s why the Greenbrier is really hurting. They need to find away to bring the family to the resort. If they can’t do that, it doesn’t matter who runs the place.
