WINTER AT THE SPRINGS

Although we don’t have solid snow cover all winter, this is a beautiful time to be at Yellow Sulphur.  Brillant sunrises, ruby red cardinals, and the stillness of the forest.

Throughout the 1800’s Yellow Sulphur Springs was more than just a resort that employed hundreds of local residents; it was also the summer home for noted Civil War generals BT Beauregard and Jubal Early, and the forming of the internationally famous Louisiana Lottery in 1868. Virginia Polytechnical University traces its formation to meetings at “The Yellow” in 1870. Yellow Sulphur Springs was a premier “black” resort in the late 1920’s, and housed hundreds of transients during the Great Depression.
