Our experience with Shenandoah Lodge & Athletic Club/Regions as the scenario for our daughterâs wedding was nothing short of stellar. The facilities were fantastic, from the lakeside wedding ceremony to the indoor dinner reception. Everything worked to perfection, thanks to the Shenandoah team. We booked this place for 150 guests after looking for a high value, reasonably-priced venue in the Shenandoah Valley area. We were immediately impressed by Savannah and Karen who knew every detail of the venue and how we could best structure the package to fit our vision. Itâs really hard to imagine that you could get a better deal for your money anywhere else. The team did a phenomenal job making sure every detail happened according to plan. The food and service at the wedding were both top-notch, easily the best wedding cuisine we've ever experienced! The bottom line is, on the day of the event, Shenandoah Lodge & Athletic Club/Regions executed every detail flawlessly. Up to this day, we continue to receive compliments from friends and family about how awesome and beautiful the wedding was and how much fun they had. We can't thank the team from Shenandoah Lodge & Athletic Club/Regions enough!

This venue seeved as the perfect location to join both both the bride's and groom's families coming together for my son's wedding. While I was mother of the groom this time, I was privileged to join the brides family in searching for a venue. The Shenandoah Lodge served as an excellent choice when looking for an all-inclusive wedding event where preliminary events and activities as well as rehearsal, ceremony, and reception could be held on one site. The amount of wedding planning stress that was alleviated by the professional staff and day-of coordinator cannot be expressed in words. The venue offered three on-site options for ceremony location and adequate size accommodations for the rehearsal and dinner. My son and daughter-in-law's ceremony was held by the lake. Gorgeous, clean, professionally coordinated; a private feel in a public venue. Having the local Hilton just 3.9 miles away was an added bonus to accommodate guests. If you're planning a wedding, we strongly suggest Shenandoah Lodge for the best experience. The couple shopped many venues ahead of this one due to pricing, but honestly, considering everything that was included in the package, the wedding expense would have been equal if not more if they had tried to piece together vendors, caterers and coordinators. Also, they would have missed out on the beauty of this venue, the excellent food, ambiance and the assistance of their great staff. I am grateful to the Bride's family for choosing the Lodge and for all that everyone did to make the day perfect. Can't say enough about the wonderful experience we had at The Shenandoah Lodge! Thanks to Karen Nottingham and staff for their excellent, professional and friendly service from start to finish!

The Shenandoah Lodge made our wedding day an experience that will forever stay with us. The venue itself, staff, and our coordinator (Karen) instantly felt like a part of our family from day one. Karen ensured that our needs and wants were met. She made our wedding process stress-free and fun! Even on our Big Day, Karen and her staff at the Lodge ensured that our guestsâ needs were met no matter the circumstances. We recommend the Shenandoah and Lodge (and specifically Karen) if you want a beautiful and reliable venue, a diligent coordinator, and an experience that makes you excited for your wedding day rather than stressed. This is the place to go!

Karen and Savannah, the event planning coordinators at Shenandoah Lodge went above our expectations when planning and executing our son and daughter-in-law's wedding in April 2022. Not only did we have the wedding and reception at Shenandoah Lodge we also hosted the rehearsal dinner at the lodge. The ladies not only assisted my daughter-in-law with her plans but were able to help perform duties from decorating to resolving a problem that could have been a major issue on the day of the wedding but was swiftly taken care of and avoided. The wait staff at the lodge did a wonderful job as well and were kind and pleasant to work with. I had no idea how to proceed with or plan the rehearsal dinner and Savannah or Karen guided me from the very beginning and the evening and food was wonderful.I can highly recommend Shenandoah Lodge as a beautiful site for a wedding, or any special event. The staff was very pleasant to work alongside planning this special event in not only my son and daughter-in-law's life but my husband's and mine as well.

Karen, Savannah, Becca, Jason and all the other staff at Shenandoah Lodge were absolutely amazing! I helped my sister and her now husband plan their wedding and from start to finish, Shenandoah Lodge was the best choice. We toured several venues but they ultimately chose to go with the Lodge in Lake Frederick and it was the best decision. Karen walked us through the details every step of the way and was so wonderful to work with. She answered all our questions along the way and helped coordinate and set up the most perfect wedding day for my sister. We couldnât have done it without her! She was a life saver several times over that day. â¤ď¸ Becca, the food and beverage person assigned to our event was amazing! From the tasting to the rehearsal dinner to the wedding and reception, Becca was attentive, helpful and so sweet. Jason, the bartender for cocktail hour and dinner was awesome! He made all the guests comfortable and relaxed and was just the kind of person you need serving drinks to lots of people. He made special considerations for our grandmother and he was a delight for all of us. All the other staff- caterers, room flippers, etc were such a pleasure, very accommodating and so sweet the entire day. I would 100% recommend Shenandoah Lodge and Karen when planning your special day. Thank you guys so much for everything! đ

We spent months, many months, as Iâm sure you are now, searching for the perfect venue for our wedding. I had so many lists, questions, and was overwhelmed with options and feeling like we would never find the place, then I emailed Courtney at the Shenandoah lodge. My wedding planning life changed forever! The venue is stunning, the food is absolutely incredible, and Courtney took care of everything! When we first talked I was sold, then I met her and the staff at lake Frederick weddings. Honest, reliable, so flexible and truly above and beyond service. Our rehearsal dinner was flawless, and our wedding day was perfect. Courtney is so organized, on top of things and experienced, our wedding planning was easy and just enjoyable all around. She doubled as my wedding planner, day of coordinator, maid of honor, and most importantly was my eyes and ears for everything to ensure our wedding vision was not only met, but exceeded beyond imagination. Our guests commented non stop the day of and since on how beautiful the venue was, how amazing the food was, and how helpful and attentive the staff was. If I could I would rate them 100 stars. Did I mention they were affordable and worked with our budget? Hands down the best vendor Iâve ever worked with.

I have to say. I am a stickler for reviews. I always assess to see which ones are being really honest and genuine with their experience. So please take my word when I say that choosing the Shenandoah Lodge and Athletic Club for our wedding venue was the best decision we could have made, next to deciding to get married. We originally made eight appointments to see venues between Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Washington D.C. Never once did we think about Virginia. We found the venue randomly through various Google searches. When we came to visit and saw the gorgeous back yard lake, modern \"mountainous\" lodge, with a HUGE fireplace right in the lobby, I pretty much knew then that this was the place for us, but of course, we still had to work out the logistics i.e. the price. I had a dream of a winter brunch wedding for a price point of no more than 10k for a hundred people. Many in the wedding industry would certainly say I was dreaming. Then Courtney (our Day of Coordinator) sat down with us to explain prices and availability. When she finally told us we were able to do everything we wanted, within the time frame we wanted, for the price we wanted...I was done and totally ready to sign the dotted line. Courtney was fantastic every step of the way. She made things happen I didn't even think of and jumped through hoops to make our requests a reality. As I mentioned before we had a brunch buffet wedding and a cocktail hour before the reception (with signature mimosas :). The food at the restaurant is really good, especially after the tasting I was convinced everything was going to be delicious, but I wasn't sure how it was going to work with that many people. NEVER for a second did a single person go hungry. The staff was ready, professional and constantly brought food. I just know those chef's were sweating away in the kitchen. The for the buffet, more than enough was an understatement. Our entire experience from beginning to end was incredible. The most important part is that we were treated like we mattered and not like another wedding commodity. Weddings are stressful enough without having a venue adding to the burden and not being flexible. Courtney played a huge role in making us feel special. If I could do it all again, I literally would because it was like a perfect dream.

I do not know where to start. The venue is gorgeous. The surrounding area is beautiful. The staff is professional and very helpful. If you are hesitant about having your wedding here, donât be. We had a lot going on during our wedding day, particularly the weather. We had last minute rain but everyone that worked at the Shenandoah Lodge did everything in their power to try to make the wedding as best as possible, and they certainly accomplished anything I asked for. I received countless amounts of compliments from my guests on how amazing the place was - the food, the surroundings, the atmosphere. If I could go back in time and do it all again, I would not hesitate selecting this venue as our first choice. Bravo.

As a photographer, this is my absolute favorite venue to photograph and work at. The staff is absolutely amazing (and that says a lot when we arenât even the clients). I have seen firsthand in a number of weddings how accommodating they are to not only the bride, groom and their families but also to the vendors that are there to serve the couples. This makes it so easy for us to give extra attention to the bride and groom on their wedding day when everything is going so smoothly in the background, thanks to the venue. On top of that, the scenery is abundant and beautiful. One of my favorite parts of this venue is that even with rain, there are endless opportunities for beautiful portraits in covered areas outside (we have had a LOT of rain this year and I was still able to get a ton of outside portraits because of the large covered patio. Highly, HIGHLY recommend!!

As it got closer to our wedding we got the pleasure of working with Courtney. She is so kind and helpful. She answered all our questions in a timely manner. When our big day finally arrived it was raining. They let us decided whether we wanted to have it inside or outside like we had planned. So we went with what we wanted and got married in the rain. I wouldn't have changed it either. It turned out better than I had dreamed. They also cater the food there, and it is to die for! All of our guests were going on and on about how great the food was. Our day was perfect and it was all thanks to the help of DeAnne and Courtney!

I can't recommend this venue highly enough! DeAnne, the special events manager, and Courtney, the special events coordinator, were both incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the almost year long process. Leading up to the wedding DeAnne helped us customize almost everything about our menu and our timeline and everything about our day and was so incredibly flexible and easy (and fun) to work with. If it wasn't something the venue could do for us, DeAnne had the name of someone local who could, which made planning so much easier! The venue really is so gorgeous and unique and as soon as we saw it, we just fell in love with it. It provided a beautiful backdrop for our wedding pictures and was perfect for our 130+ person wedding. DeAnne and Courtney and their staff took care of so many things behind the scenes for us and the day of the wedding everything went so smoothly even though all of our plans changed the day of due to rain. The food was absolutely amazing and we received so many compliments from our guests about not only how great the food was, but also how much of it there was to choose from and how gorgeous the venue was!

As soon as we drove up to the Shenandoah Lodge, we fell in love with the location and building. From the lake views, mountain landscape, and the ceremony and reception locations, we knew this was the place where we wanted to get married and celebrate with our family and closest friends. One of the best things about this venue is the staff and coordinators! DeAnne was amazing at helping us throughout the whole process. I probably had a million questions for her, and she answered every single one in a very timely fashion. She also offered valuable insight on the whole wedding process because of her experience with weddings at this venue. Also, the food is BEYOND incredible! One of our favorite experiences was the food and wine tasting and being able to meet the chef. We were able to taste many delectable appetizers, the salad, and main entrees. We were also able to go over many details at the tasting and I cannot express how helpful that was to me as the bride and wedding planner. I felt so assured and relieved and extremely excited after finalizing the details and working with the staff at the Lodge. If you are looking for a venue that has all the natural and rustic charm of the country, staff that is helpful beyond expectations, and amazing food for your guests, this is the perfect place for you! I hope many more couples are able to experience a magical wedding just like we did. Thanks DeAnne and Courtney for everything!

With the lake on one side and the mountains on the other, the pictures are amazing no matter where you are. We got so many compliments on the amazing atmosphere! They have 2 outdoor ceremony locations (one lakeside one mountain side), both of which can be covered with a tent if you provide one. The reception space is indoors and has a glam barn feel, even though it's an event space and not a barn. LOVE!The staff: From the day we first met with DeAnne we had an amazing experience. Every question was responded to quickly, every detail was covered by the staff, and I couldn't asked for a better venue. All of the staff is amazing and friendly, from the wait staff to the chef to the coordinators. I especially have high praise for DeAnne and Courtney, the event coordinators, as they go above and beyond for everyone. We even had a vendor no-show the day of the wedding, and the two of them went to work tracking down a replacement bus for guest transportation. By the time I learned of the problem, they already found another vendor. They're truly amazing at what they do!The food: I was told by many guests it was the best food at any wedding they've been to. Want to try it first? There's a restaurant on-site open to the public that you can have a try of what the chef has to offer. I've been multiple times there and everything I have tried is amazing. Couldn't have got better food than what they offer. You also get to meet the chef at the tasting and he is amazing!110% recommend!

She was immediately responsive to all of our questions and was delightful to work with! DeAnne kept everything running smoothly both in the planning stages and during the event.
