I stayed for three nights and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Shadow Mountain truly felt like a home away from home — offering the freedom and comfort of a private rental with the convenience and amenities of a full-service hotel. The staff went above and beyond by offering an early check-in and a late check-out, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for relaxation, flexibility, and quality hospitality. I look forward to returning.

Room was great. I asked the staff about the on-site/golf course side bar/restaurant and what kind of food did they serve. He was 100% wrong. At that point it would be better to say you don't know rather than give a wrong answer. We were fine and this didn't affect our stay or satisfaction at all.
