Excellent stay. Clearly new, updated, and better than the other place around looked. The restaurant is Houlihan's, but is locally run and is better than the average chain, and they go out of their way to do well. Food was remarkably good even ate there three days. given the limited selections in this area, you won't do better, I'm fairly... More

We stayed here for one night on our college road trip through the southern states. We were given a beautiful room with 2 queen beds and a gorgeous view of the golf course. Pool was warm and spa clean and worked well. We dined at Houlihans which adjoins the hotel. Very good food and reasonably priced. Two of us forgot... More

This was by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. We had a room block for my wedding at Blue Ridge Shadows. My parents checked in to their “smoke-free room” and the room smelled liked an ash tray. The employees were the rudest people I have EVER met in my entire life.

We stayed as a family of 4 on holidays. The staff were great and rooms the same. The queen doubles were great for us and the restaurant houlihans being attached to the hotel made it easy for our one night stay.
