This course is located out past Front Royal. My golf buddy and I took a day off to play 18 holes…read more Since we golf for a yearly tournament, the course provides us with a free round of golf any other time during the year. We took advantage of it this week. The weather was hot and humid, but they offer carts for $25. There were just a few groups before and after us, but everyone was pretty courteous and let each other play through as needed. The course is hilly but very nice. The grounds are clean, there is a very big clubhouse that offers an assortment of deli and grill foods. There's also a nice selection of draft as well as bottles/cans for your 'cooler' pleasure. Parking is easy and there are nearby accommodations should you decide to stay over for another 18 holes.

TL;DR: Okay course; starter was less than helpful; not particularly scenic or anything; Expensive…read more Overview: ~Checking in was no problem; tee time was booked online ($95/person: a little expensive for what it is imo) ~Range balls are separate ~Carts are around, but need to check with starter for which one to load our stuff into ~Starter interaction was less than ideal. I came out after checking in, and went to load a cart. Starter was not at the podium (which had a tip jar?), but was on his phone and sitting next to the podium facing away from the carts. When I asked if I can load any cart, I hear him say "No", which is fine, but took a minute to finish his game and then get up to give me a key. He pointed at the cart I should use, and I went and loaded it myself (what's the tip jar for, if not going to be helpful). ~Cart had a cooler on it, but no ice in it ~We had about 20ish minutes before our tee time, so we were trying to rush to warm up, but the starter said "You guys have plenty of time" ~We started warming up and ~12 minutes in, the starter begins yelling our name to tell us to start our round ~Starter did not tell us pin position or anything, but found the info on a board ~The score cards do not have a good view of the greens/pin positions, so just winged it COURSE: ~Tee boxes were nice and flat ~There weren't many scenic or particularly nice holes, but overall it was well maintained ~Bathroom available after hole 4 and 8 (same bathroom/portapoddy) ~You loop back to the clubhouse at the run and the 15th tee is next to the clubhouse) Overall, it's an okay course, but for the price point, I'm not surprised that the course was not that busy on a Sunday during peak season.

After 59 nights, even I wondered how this review would read!…read more Here it is. Location: 5 Stars. It's on a golf course. Friendliness of the Desk Staff: 5 Stars. Great Job! (Just be sure to check photo ID before giving out room keys.) Hospitality: 5 Stars. They even had a hospitality room and a nice outdoor lounge for us. That was very thoughtful. Cleanliness: 2 stars. This is a serious problem. The carpets look very dirty and need to either be replaced or deep cleaned something serious in the common areas! I didn't notice it as much in the lobby but on the 2nd floor it was gross. I'm mainly talking about the hallways. They are very discolored and black i'm places and disgusting. Several times I called the front desk because dishes were left on the table right in front of the elevator for multiple days despite all the cleaning staff coming and going right past them. One time, it had been 5 days and the two wine glasses with just a tad bit of red wine had been sitting there 5 days and I called the front desk to let them know after the 4th day. Day 5, still there! How annoying. I don't live like that at home and I definitely don't want to live like that in this hotel for 59 days. Odor... the hotel stinks. The hallways stink, the rooms stink, and the elevators stink. The bathrooms stink too! (The one in the restaurant is the worst!) Pool Area: 5 Stars. I was shocked at how clean it always looked even though getting in the water made my skin itch. I'd rather have a clean pool with strong chemicals than the alternative. Gym: Above average. Nice! Parking: Plenty of parking! Smoking: I understand that there are designated smoking areas outdoors but i'm not positive they were the correct distance from the front doors. Also, it seemed like nobody cleaned that area regularly either. Room Service: N/A, I ordered a plate and silverware one day to eat in my room with no problem. Comfort: 4.5 Stars! Shockingly the beds were decently comfortable and the pillows were good too. The AC worked well and it was nice and cold for me daily. Design: 2 Stars. The bathroom doors, in every room were the most overlooked feature in the hotel when it was built. It swings in, right in your way! The door almost unintentionally divides the bathroom in half and it's very unnatural and hard to navigate in that awkwardly designed bathroom. I'll be back. Hopefully, they can get the cleaning staff straightened out, steam clean the floors or replace the outdated carpets and decor, and update the rooms to something a bit more modern. But overall, it was definitely the best option in Front Royal for long term lodging!

We stayed in Room 15, the Bernstein Suite, and it was incredibly spacious. The bed was so comfortable, and I loved the thoughtful details -- especially the cute vanity room with amazing natural light and the cozy seating area. The decor throughout the inn and in the room really stood out to me and was easily my favorite part of the stay. It felt like such a unique blend of historic charm and comfort. This stay was extra special for us as it was part of our 10-year anniversary trip while driving to New York City, and it ended up being the perfect halfway stop to break up the drive. It made the whole trip feel even more memorable. We also dined at Clem's Kitchen during our stay, and the food was great. (I'm gluten free and there were plenty of options!) I really appreciated that it's part of the inn, which made the overall experience feel seamless and convenient. Overall, it's the kind of place where you can slow down, soak in the atmosphere, and enjoy something truly special. I would absolutely recommend staying here if you're in the Shenandoah Valley area.

Charming Place, Comfortable Stay…read more We enjoy stays at both chains and independent hotels/motels, just do a lot of research to ensure a solid, restful stay at either. This piqued our interest as the longest continuously run motel and it lived up to expectations of being charmingly quirky while also very comfortable -- plus, proving to be easy to access as a quick pit stop. Spouse & I agreed when checking out that we wished we were staying longer, to get to enjoy the surprisingly spacious sitting room and glassed-in porch -- we stayed in room #15 / Bernstein and recommend it to both couples and small families. The bed was cushy and my husband slept later than his norm, always a good sign for bed comfort. It is higher than average, so I took advantage of the provided step to hop in/out. Because the tavern is onsite, there were additional bathrooms handy downstairs when ours was occupied. As noted in our welcome sheet, water took a few minutes to warm up. So if showering and in a rush, run it first for 3-5 minutes while doing other prep. But hot water arrives and pressure was excellent. The rooms were spotless, though of course tiles and other fixtures are vintage and show age -- it's a historic landmark. We also wish we could have stayed longer to take advantage of the porch rockers and both the tavern or (intriguingly combined) Irish-Mexican restaurant on premises. There appears to be patio seating in back, so ask if it's associated with hotel or dining, if looking for other outdoor space. Indoors, there are public spaces (two parlors plus other spots -- it's a rambling building!) with books and a checkerboard handy. Maybe more amenities but we ran out of time to explore. It's not a B&B -- there's just a stocked Keurig in the lobby and some packaged snacks and bottled water (free but donations welcomed). But if the Tavern is closed, as it was on our Memorial Dat visit, there's a small coffee shop just a half-block away, serving breakfast late as well as some sandwiches and bowls, plus good teas & coffees. Incredibly friendly staff. Looked like a few other dining options nearby plus historic sites and walking trails. We arrived very late, and management is not onsite at that hour, but instructions for arrival were provided, comprehensive and very easy to follow. Staff on site in am were very pleasant and helpful. Tip: If arriving late & lugging a ton of luggage, ask which rooms are closest to the late-night entrance. Number 15 is on the far side and up a flight of stairs -- fine for us with just overnight totes & computer bags but just something to keep in mind if you have a lot to unload. Overall, an enthusiastic thumbs-up. It looks like it would be a fun, relaxing hub for a weekend escape. But also great as a highway stop, as it is just a few minutes' drive from the exit.

I found this gem through a friends recommendation when I first started playing years ago. Anyways, I hadn't been in a while and went back recently with all this Covid-19 business going on. It was a way to feel like I'm getting away with also not getting price gouged by every course in NOVA taking advantage of the MD golfers coming in to play. Okay rant over. My buddies and I, after a round on this beautiful mountain top course; decided to ask about booking their cottage for a weekend with our female companions (who do not play golf). I knew this would take some convincing, but honestly, the staff is really the reason it was all possible. They went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of every step of the way. So much so the girls actually left enjoying being out on the course so much I believe some of them are thinking about taking lessons. The value of this place is not in their great pricing (and yes the pricing is great). It's in the personality of every person that you get to meet and talk to through the time you're there. We left feeling like we had just visited long lost relatives. There's something in the water up there that just has everyone so much more connected with each other. It probably doesn't hurt that you can find the owner working most days checking in to make sure everyone's enjoying themselves. I don't think if he even knows what the word "no" is, honestly. We will definitely be back and plan to make it a regular trip we take. Thank you so much for all your help SVGC staff! A special shoutout to Janet and Ronda for keeping up with us as our plans changed the whole time leading up to our stay. To Dan the chef that's prepared us an amazing steak dinner to eat on the outside patio tables for our last night there. And to everyone in the pro shop grill room and starter table. You all rock!

We arrived much later than expected and the woman working the front desk during the evening shift was welcoming and extremely kind upon our check in. Definitely the type of greeting anyone would hope for after a long, late night drive. The TownPlace Suites in Front Royal is located in an area with lots of "life" surrounding it. There are places to eat and shop such as a Target, Walmart, Starbucks, and other popular chain establishments. There was ample parking surrounding the hotel and, even more noteworthy, all parking was complimentary. Pets are also welcome at this hotel for a small fee. Our room was extremely spacious for two adults. We were assigned to a two queen bed accessible room. There was a full kitchen with full size refrigerator, microwave, stove, and sink, a dining table, and a large bathroom. There were ample power outlets to charge multiple devices. Plenty of room to spare for just the two of us. A family or group of four could fit comfortably in this room. Perhaps, even a family with three small children willing to share a bed. Complimentary hot breakfast was served each morning. The breakfast had a good variety of items and was actually pretty good! Without a doubt, a five star stay for us. We could have been happy staying here more than one night as the accommodations really made us feel like we were at a home away from home. If we ever find ourselves back in this area of Virginia, we will definitely look to book at this TownPlace Suites again.
