“Pup-Friendly Escape!”
+I wanted to quickly write and let you know that we had absolutely the most magical weekend visiting Barnsley (no one more so than our pup, Charlie!!!). We are so immensely appreciative and grateful for the hospitality your team extended to us throughout our entire stay. We especially adored dining with Reeves at Jules on Friday night (he is sunshine in human form and guided us expertly throughout our meal), and we were so impressed by David B. at Woodlands today as he navigated an influx of parties, schedules, and seating arrangements with absolute aplomb, grace, and warmth. I cannot wait to share my experience with my audience and on The Lauren Letter throughout this week, and my husband and I are already eagerly planning our next trip to Barnsley!!! Thank you again so, so much! xx Lauren, Carter & Charlie

“One of the best hotel / resort experiences we’ve ever had. Unforgettable.”
+Best hotel and Resort in 150 miles!! Unforgettable experience. Don’t waste your money somewhere else. The service is second to none! Shane and Caitlin are THE BEST!!!!!
“A Hidden Gem You’ll Be Glad You Discovered”
+The Barnsley is a hidden gem! I’ve lived in Georgia almost 20 years and never heard of it until a friend mentioned it recently. I love the natural, but sophisticated environment, friendly service and fellow guests, and my cottage was well appointed, comfortable, relaxing and cozy. There is a variety of activities, so whatever your thing - the spa, golf, fishing, hiking, biking, canoeing, horseback, or just hanging out by the pool or conversation around one of the fire pits along the main walk - you will not run out of enjoyable activities. And if you just want to rest and wander the property, the trails and the historic site, and there to enjoy as well. I went alone for a personal retreat and left totally refreshed and ready to book a stay in a few months with my family!
“Wonderful Wedding Weekend!”
+We had the most wonderful wedding weekend at Barnsley! Everything was so convenient and easy, with lots to do! We will visit again!

“Choose the right accommodations for you”
+Overall a very nice resort. Would not recommend Fugger Cabin unless you want a true old cabin experience.Quiet, secluded and beautiful view though. Not particularly clean or good value for the nightly rate paid. Broken chairs for sitting in living room. Room service was reliable but some food items were cold.

“Wonderful place for a family getaway!”
+The property and setting were gorgeous! I loved the walkability from the inn, cottages, and every activity we wanted to do! The variety of amenities kept everyone busy and interested. The nightly s'mores by the bonfires and morning coffee, fruits, breads and biscuits were a nice touch and enjoyed by all! The rooms and cottage was very clean and quaint. The weekend live music was awesome too!! Pickleball courts were a plus!!!
−The Biergarten was closed M-W, which was a shame since the outdoor restaurant was centrally located and easy to grab a bite and watch whatever sports were on. The other main restaurant was good, but slow at times. Our waiter was fantastic and very attentive, however!

“Family Reunion Weekend”
+My family celebrated at Barnsley this weekend (27 people who stayed in 3 different houses, one of which was the Godfrey). Overall the property is beautiful, however the service in general could use improvement. We enjoyed the lodging, but our food experience was beyond disappointing. We ate dinner at the Woodlawn on Friday night. One of our families never got the dinner they ordered, so they left after appetizers. Another family was served the wrong dishes after waiting on hour. On Sunday morning, we waited over an hour for our breakfast and served ourselves coffee and water the entire meal. We inquired numerous times for our food, without a clear update. Separate from that restaurant, the pool (which is lovely) service was unpredictable. They were bringing out wrong orders, several duplicate orders, etc. The pool was crowded, so this can be given extra grace. Again, the property is lovely, but for the cost the service needs to be greatly improved.

“No attention to detail”
+Went to celebrate anniversary and wife’s birthday for weekend. Where is attention to detail in a 800 a night resort? 300 check-in. Room not ready until 430. Dinner reservation for anniversary at 600. Why should we be rushed because they don’t know how to get a room ready in a timely fashion? Parking at cottage. Drove down the lane. 3 other vehicles used double spaces to park vehicle. Mine is oversized too. I parked in double space too. Only to be to be vehicular assaulted by another quest telling me these are assigned spaces and swearing at me because and lying about it. The spaces are not assigned and she just didn’t want to walk an extra 20 feet. I called security. Where I come from if a guest wants to swear at other guests along with her husband about a parking space to another guest at an800 a. Night resort you get get kicked out? No procedures in the resort? To top it off package came with bottle of sparking wine. Didn’t know the red wine they gave us wouldn’t sparkle. Whole evening ruined. We left and got refund. Btw found at the outdoor. Restaurant was pathetic . Burger dry. Fries bland. I can go to McDonald’s for garbage food. Avoid this place. Even a. Tru hotel hotel would

“Entitled membership”
+The resort is top notch however, do not include golf in your trip. There is membership at the course and members apparently don’t like nor want resort guests playing “their “ course. They hit into you if they feel you are not moving quickly enough and the course apparently cannot or will not say anything to the member. Either go private at the course and don’t allow resort play or get your membership under control. It’s a shame because the staff and resort are very professional even the golf staff. Entitled membership will force people to choose other venues.
