You'll want to stay in this beautiful resort. Elegant appointments and fabulous attention to your every need. We stayed in the Falls Cottages, and every suite has a beautiful porch and fireplace. Madison's restaurant has a menu that will impress even the most serious "foodie".

This is the third stay at Old Edwards Inn for my daughters and myself. I really didn't think they could improve on anything, but somehow they have. Maybe because we are here during the week, we were upgraded to a two bedroom suite. It is sumptuous! The service is always spectacular, and with the addition of Arts coffee bar, just... More

What an amazing golf course to play, the views are to doe for. You can tell by the shape of the fairways, greens and roughs that the grounds crew is always hard at work. Great fluff to hit off of and greens are beautiful and a work or art. Hit Pro-V ones off the driving range with staff to answer... More

We had a "Slip Away & Save/Comfort/Joy" package which I thought included breakfast. It did not. Dinner was included and the server was very helpful in helping us decide what to order. The meal was very good, as was lunch and breakfast. The pool area and hot tub were very nice and very clean as was the spa. The only... More

I was extremely turned off at first by the Hotel. 1) Someone showed us around (I thought he was taking us to our rooms) but he was taking us on a tour of the grounds (all the building are disconnected which I don't really like) to the Edwards showroom, the Edwards spa, the Edwards gift shop, where I can spend...

Beautiful property, tastefully and expensively refurbished. Incredible in-town location. Top notch, well-trained staff who seem sincerely eager to accommodate your every request. Great restaurant. This is one of those few places where I can't come up with anything I could suggest they do to improve. I wish whatever staff training procedure they used at this property would be adopted by...

The Old Edwards Inn is an excellent place to step outside of the busy lives we live and recharge. To say the staff is wonderful is an understatement! The food at Madison's and the Wine Garden is great. The Spa, the pool, the gym and the rooms are all fantastic. I love this place! Highlands shopping and walking around the... More
