Marriott Shadow Ridge is a great resort with great unirs to rent and amenities. We always enjoy our stay here. The check in process is easy, the units are privaye, nice little deck to sit on and watch the golfers and animals go by, the pools are great with lots of sesting and Snake Bites is a terrific pool side bar to grab a drink or a snack. Highly recommend staying here!
Got there on Friday the 6th the room wasnt
Ready but they put us in room that was
Enjoyed Friday Saturday & Sunday 😁
We were their for the Power Trip Festival
Which Was Awesome 😁
The room was clean, and resort is nice- but it was not as pictured. The photos showed a fireplace and a patio area with a table- no fireplace, patio area or a deck. This is basically a hotel room, separated from the rest of the unit's kitchen and living area next door. The common wall is the kitchen of the other unit, and the noise from the cupboards and microwave closing is terrible. Not a good design. Also don't expect any maid service- stayed 9 days with no change of towels.
