Blue Ridge Shadows Golf Club

The staff are really kind. The course is simply Outstanding. I always this course and its valleys. The 15th tee is breath taking. It gives you more value for your money.

Played this course with my GF and we both enjoyed it very much. Challenging and varied holes. Greens were in decent shape, but fairly slow as I am used to Maryland National where I am a member. Would definitely play here again! $16 on GolfNow can't be beat!!!!

Fairways and greens were in good shape. Rough was 50% crabgrass. Not a course for beginners, very tight in places with some extreme elevation changes. Some have commented on the quality of the scenery but I found the cheap housing on the course unattractive. The scenery is better at SVGC or even Bowling Green.

The courses is very good condition and staff is very friendly. It's a challenging course.

Really liked this course. It was challenging, but fair! the greens were Airiated which made them bumpy and more difficult to read, but want to play here again when the green are"normal". Water hazards made it difficult but again it was fair. Traffic noise was less than desirable and hotel guests on # 16 distracted play. Lots of ups and downs and the Loupold rangefinder came in very handy at times. # 10 is a two club longer distance uphill. Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. Starter was helpful for a first timer.

Nice course. Unfortunately, through GolfNow there was no warning that the greens on the front nine had just been aerified and that the back nine was closed for aerification. A real disappointment to drive more than an hour to play the front nine twice with greens that were un-puttable.

This is a great course, really enjoyed playing there. Extremely friendly staff.

Great course. We did get paired up with another twosome due to a tournament starting an hour after we did. It is challenging to play, some tight fairways. Great course though for the price and the challenge.

This course could be a great one if they allowed the greens to firm up and roll a bit more true and they monitored the pace of play. Although it was my first time here, the course was well marked and should not have required the 5+ hours it took to play. On every tee box there was a 3-8 minute wait. Requests to on course PA did nothing.

So close yet so far!

The course was wet, so it was cart path only. That naturally slowed pace of play. The dampness did not hurt play as much as my inconsistent swing. I already have a tee time for Monday.

What a ride this course was. I hope to return to play it when the conditions are good. The topography was very interesting and the ly of the land unforgiving....

Several holes are very targeted; course layout is awesome. Level of difficulty increases exponentially with winds from 11mph with gust of 25 and >. Non fare way hits will take their toll.

For March the course was in good shape. The Shadows is one of the premier courses in the Shenandoah Valley - you owe it to yourself to come out for a round.

A bit pricy for the winter conditions. Greens were beat up.

This is the best overall course in the area. They take good care of the course all the way around. Well maintained fairways and greens and a nice challenge for any level of golfer. Also the scenic views that surround the course on almost every hole make for a very relaxing very enjoyable round of golf.

The staff was great the starter went through the card and told us where the best place it hit the ball on a few of the holes. It was a mountain course so sometimes you where hitting to places you could not see. So the info we got from the starter was very helpful. The course was in great shape. The greens were great to putt on except some people need to learn to fix their divots. I enjoy the course it as a great day of golf for all of my group.

Blue Ridge Shadows did their standard magnificent job!

I basically grew up playing a lot of other courses in the area and had driven by Blue Ridge Shadows countless times, but this was my first time playing. This was definitely better than most other courses in the area, especially when playing on a discount through this site.

The afternoon I played, the course was in solid shape. The greens were super soft, which made them easy to hold even from long distance, but unfortunately this also meant that just walking across them left small indentations. There were also a lot of ball marks on each green that hadn't been repaired, but as long as you didn't have to fix those, the greens rolled quick and the lines seemed easier than average to read. Two greens with lots of slope had some problematic patches that must have been under repair, but otherwise were in good shape. The tee boxes were a little spotty, but it was still easy to find a decent spot to use.

Overall this course was a lot of fun. There's a ton of topography which presents interesting and unique challenges on each hole. There are a couple fun tee shots where you're WAY above the fairway and also a par 3 that plays straight up hill. Compared to other courses in the area that have chunk-inducing clay fairway soil, this course was great for taking true divots and shot-making.

All in all, a few things could be improved but it's a great/fun course, especially for the cost.

2 greens are eating. Greens need attention. Quick play. Golfers need to repair their devots.

Great staff and excellent course. Will return in the future...
