Bay Valley Golf Resort is a beautiful facility currently in a state of decline. The rooms are spacious and clean. Everything works. However there is a general shabbiness about the lobby and public spaces - torn and stained carpeting, worn and dated wallpaper and furnishings. We ate a few meals in the Players Lounge and they were good. But when I ordered an Old Fashioned from the bar, the server apologetically explained that their resources were limited, basically cold bottled beer, some wine choices and some spirits straight or over ice. It is too bad because the facilities were clearly grand at one time, but no more. The staff were all friendly and accommodating - but more staff are needed for a facility this size.

Look for another hotel pay the extra $100
You can tell it definitely used to be a good spot back in the day, but I don’t think anything’s changed since then, and the room was never cleaned when you asked for towels; they were always out, stayed for 4 days, and had the same towels from day one. The balcony wasn’t even two steps from the door, and there was no room at all to move. And breakfast, yeah, pointless unless you like dry bread and cereal with no milk or any other options of drinks.

The building and grounds are gorgeous. The carpets and mattresses seem to be incredibly old. They are beyond filthy. The mattress and box springs are beyond yellowing. There are no mattress protectors either. Our socks were black from the carpet. Everything had a smell and had to be washed again. I think it's in the materials from when smoking was allowed indoors to be honest. It ruined the whole experience. It seems like it's closing. The pro shop staff was great. Office staff too. Pool is great! But it was so gross we couldn't sleep. I hope someone fixes it up because it could be stunning. The pro shop and deck are literally falling apart. Many things seem to require repair.

Air conditioner worked very wekk and room was clean, but the rest of the hotel was not air conditioned or very clean. Staff was friendly. Third floor rooms are nicer with high ceilings. I'd give free breakfast 2 stars.

Great expectations that fell short. The attraction of a pool, hot tub, restaurant and bar, and included breakfast were the attraction. However, the breakfast arrangements were very poor. Unworkable microwave and toaster. Inadequate supplies of food and very low quality products. Breakfast was a shocking experience; very poor standard. Food in restaurant was excellent. Staff great. Pool and hot tub; welcome facilities but changing rooms very worn condition. Lighting in many areas poor.

The grounds were beautiful. The hotel was older with an elegant charm. The staff were friendly at check in and prompt when we called for extra towels. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The breakfast had a nice selection with good microwaveable breakfast sandwiches and pancakes. The breakfast pastries were homemade and delicious. We would stay again.
