Too many hills

This was my first time here and don''t think I will come back. Although course was in good shape and play proceeded well till 16th hole, where it was backed up thru 18 with 4somes, just too many hills and valleys and blind shots for me.

Great day!

My son and I played a couple of weeks earlier after a pretty wet week and in extremely windy conditions. This time it was a gorgeous day with mild temps and even with rain the day prior the course was in very good condition. We love the challenging conditions of so many elevation changes. This will definitely be one of our staple courses as we move through this coming golf season!

I like everything about this course.

This course has certainly made a lot of improvements over the last year. A good mix of holes and will challenge you with a lot of different lies. The staff is very accommodating and you can tell they appreciate the business.

Winter course

The sand trap were hard but it’s winter so to be expected. The only thing I really don’t like about this course is the par 3 are way to long especially during the winter! Overall great course.

It’s February and 42 degrees

All things considered the course was in great shape. It is mid February and yet the greens were in really great shape. It was a good day other than freezing and the fact that the ball felt like a rock each time you hit it.

Blue Ridge Shadows is back!

Based on how much conditions at BRS improved in 2018 I think 2019 will be a fabulous year for players. You are getting a quality course for 50% of what you’d pay in Fairfax or Loudon County. It’s wort the drive again.

Worth the drive

One of the several trips I have made out to BRS golf course. Well worth the extra twenty to thirty minutes it takes to get here. Price is great and course always in good shape.

Still A Really Cool Course

Blue Ridge Shadows remains a well-maintained course with a unique layout, friendly staff, and good overall value. Since I last played here last year, they’ve upgraded the sand in all the bunkers, though it was hard to fully appreciate the improvement with all the rain the course had had in recent weeks. Even still, the course played well and there was very little standing water in play.

The course layout remains unique to the area with lots of elevation change, something you don’t get at courses like Shenandoah Valley GC or Bowling Green CC. There is a good variety of holes and you’ll use a full arsenal of shots throughout your round. I’ve always struggled to play well here but this time I posted a score closer to my average than my previous attempts, so I would classify the course as somewhat challenging. As I have mentioned in other reviews of this course, they have tried to make the course more playable in recent years.

Course conditions were decent but with so much rain lately, it was hard to expect any better. The bunkers weren’t completely washed out but didn’t look like they had been groomed recently. Some of the tee boxes looked pretty bad and there were some dead spots on some of the greens but overall nothing that affected play.

With a very friendly staff and good off-course amenities BRSGC is a more complete package than its in-town rivals. I look forward to coming back again when it’s a little drier.

GOlf with GolfNow

I played this course for the good value. Richland GC is to berree me but the tee time is at 11:10am, Black Rock is neerer also but is too expencise and at 10::38am. Also Bowling Green South and North but at 11:52am, Clustered Spires GC too expensive. Shenandoah VallyGC great price but at 9:48am!! And Mountain View GC for the top of what I can pay at a good hour!! Can you revive these prices and hours? I am a VIP member and have to consume the 10 tee times of $20 each after 12m.

Great for all Amateurs!!

You can't beat BRS for layout, conditioning or staff friendliness. Course is in the best shape ever, and greens are super smooth(only a few bare spots on 15 & 16 that need to grow in).

Pick the right tees and it'll be a tough test. You'll need to do everything right to put up a good score. Precision, length and being a good lag putter are all required.

Lunch in the grill is delicious and reasonably priced. Overall, its worth the drive out to Front Royal and i look forward to each and every tine there. They do a great job!
