Beautiful hardwood floors, 7 fireplaces, original Ludowici clay tile roof, elevator, whole house generator and amazing detail work that has to be seen. 1st and 2nd floors = 6,800 sq.ft.

Perfect Place for a large golf group

We had 16 guys stay here for our annual golf trip, great size and great location, house is HUGE but does lack sufficient sized room for a group that big to congregate and watch games on TV. Great back yard for entertaining and the hosts were absolutely wonderful

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Mar, 2020
I'm glad y'all had a good stay but wonder if you didn't find the basement. There is a full basement with card room, another room with a pool table, and another room with ping pong, large TV and plenty of seating. I will make sure future guests realize they are welcome to the basement.

Family Gathering

Shadowlawn is/was absolutely perfect for our annual family golf trip. It is within walking distance of The Village of Pinehurst, and the home is spotless with plenty of space for our group. The back patio was the perfect place to gather at the end of our day and enjoy each other’s company!

Perfect Palace

Everything was perfect from the original booking, to check in, to check out. I would highly recommend this house especially if you have a large group. The beds and bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The downstairs entertainment room was great. We will be back for sure.

"Matches Everything Pinehurst"

When I think of Pinehurst, I think of #2, the Resort, Donald Ross, the Pinecrest Inn, #2, Mid Pines, the heyday of golf in the 1920's, and this Estate fits that narrative. You will get the full experience and feel like you are whisked away from our fast paced smart phone world! That, and this place is big, with plenty of Beds, bathrooms, and meeting space for your whole golf trip to to hang out.

Incredible Historic English Tudor Home!

This is the most perfect place to host a large group outing or fun family vacation. The house is saturated with rich history. Not only that, but there is room to sleep up to over 20 people (including the guest house)! That's unheard of! It is just a few miles away from historic Pinehurst and a quick drive to fun small towns such as Aberdeen and Southern Pines. We loved going out to dinner in Pinehurst and Southern Pines. The basement has great spaces for having fun and playing games. I couldn't think of a better place to stay in the area. It is incredibly unique and the host family was so accommodating.

SHADOWLAWN IS AMAZING!!!

Our group of 15 or so golfers absolutely loved the accommodations at Shadowlawn. Every person had their own bed and the historic elegance of the house provides the full flavor of the southern charm of Pinehurst. The guys enjoyed the pool table, ping pong, card table and large gathering space in the basement. The dining room is beautifully appointed with a table large enough to seat our entire group. Most of the bedrooms have their own private bathroom. This house is amazing!!!
