CONCORD, N.C. – Golfers interested in stay-and-play resort packages in the Charlotte market finally have an option. The Embassy Suites Golf Resort & Spa has teamed with Elite Golf Packaging to offer the Queen City’s first bona fide resort packages.
The packages are built around Embassy Resort and its Dan Maples-designed Rocky River Golf Club. In addition to Rocky River, participants choose from a handful of top-notch area courses, such as Olde Sycamore Golf Plantation, Cabarrus Country Club and Warrior Golf Club.
After their rounds, golfers can enjoy the resort’s full-service spa, indoor pool, whirlpool, fitness center, bar and restaurant. The resort also has an agreement with the Richard Petty Driving Experience for those wishing to add some non-golfing excitement to their trip.
“The uniqueness in this market is that you’re staying at your primary golf course in a self-contained resort,” said resort general manager Terry Crawford. “This is a fantastic place to stay while playing several excellent golf options in close proximity.”
Vickie Fletcher, owner of Elite Golf Packaging, has received positive feedback on these new resort golf packages.
“I worked several golf shows over the winter and people want to come to Charlotte,” Fletcher said. “Charlotte is very much on the national radar.”
Fletcher said the Embassy Suites Golf Resort & Spa is an easy sell because of its amenities. The 11-story hotel has 308 luxury suites, 42,000 square feet of meeting space, fine dining, full breakfast included with room, and is walking distance to Lowe’s Motor Speedway. It’s also a short drive to Concord Mills, North Carolina’s largest shopping mall.
Packages begin at $190 per night, while three-day, two-night packages start at $420.
