This premier resort offers a wide range of top-notch activities on its 250-acre grounds, including two championship golf courses, a full service Mario Tricoci spa and salon, two theaters, a full service gym complete with cardiovascular and conditioning equipment, sauna, with locker room facility, tennis, basketball, an indoor and two outdoor swimming pools.

The resort also offers a wide variety of accommodations from spacious courtyard rooms to two-story whirlpool suites to luxurious penthouse suites with spectacular views.

All of Pheasant Run Resort & Spa’s 473 recently renovated rooms offer direct-dial telephone service, air conditioning, satellite color television, room service and an array of amenities.

Pheasant Run Resort & Spa is full of excitement and fun things to do. Maybe grab the family and meet at the poolside for family-friendly movies each Friday and Saturday evening on a new inflatable big screen. Movies begin at dusk. Or enjoy Live Entertainment in Lilly’s Lounge located on Bourbon Street. With no cover charge.

Guests will also enjoy strolling down Pheasant Run’s beautiful indoor replica of New Orleans’ Bourbon Street and comedy lovers can take in the standup antics of regional and national comedians at Zanies’ Comedy Club.

At Pheasant Run you never need to go out for breakfast, dinner or lunch with having several great restaurants to choose from. The newest addition “Harvest Restaurant” features the culinary talents of Chef Josef Yurisich. This distinctive new restaurant and bar offers traditional and regional cuisine with a twist and features only the finest aged beef, exceptional seafood, extraordinary game selections and seasonal dishes with fresh ingredients that are available in local markets.

For the coffee lover the “Terrace Café” features coffee drinks and snack foods and the “Garden Atrium” offers an exceptional weekend dinner buffet and a great Sunday live Jazz Champagne Brunch with over 100 buffet specialties including made-to-order omlets, waffle stations and other great creations of food. I highly recommend the Brunch, it is exceptionally delicious!
