The Transylvania Times,  September 17, 2024

A boutique real estate investment firm based in Vermont has aquired the historic 30-room Lake Toxaway property known as The Greystone Inn.

“We are delighted to add this exquisite hotel to our expanding collection of properties,” said Brandon Berger, owner and CEO of Wild Air Ventures in a news release. “Lake Toxaway is a true gem of a destination and we are excited to offer our guests a place where they can unwind, discover and experience unforgettable moments,” said Berger who grew up visiting The Greystone Inn with his family. With the vision of offering exceptional hospitality experiences in remarkable destinations, Berger co-founded Wild Air Ventures with his wife Daphne, the release said.

“This was an opportunity we couldn’t resist and is a perfect match for us as our company’s mission is to craft authentic and unforgettable experiences through beautiful spaces,” said Daphne. “The Greystone Inn provides a wonderful canvas to do just that, and an occasion to build upon its legacy with consistent strategic investments into the property.”

At closing Wild Air Ventures will transition management to Hay Creek Hotels and Restaurants, a leader in upscale, independent boutique hotel management while maintaining the hotel’s well-tenured associates, the release said. The company said it is planning a meaningful capital investment into the property, the details of which will be shared at a later date.
