Known for its two championship golf courses along the Potomac River and a magnificent 40,000-square-foot clubhouse perched above the courses, Lowes Island Club offers members a golf experience unmatched in the region. The family-centered private club, located a short distance from Washington, D.C., in Potomac Falls, Va., is an island paradise to its members.
A Winning Pair
Progressing through wooded valleys, across lakes and marshes and along the banks of the Potomac, every round of golf at Lowes Island is a celebration of the sport.
Legendary golf course architects Tom Fazio and Arthur Hills have created two championship courses over 465 rolling acres that challenge golfers of all skill levels.
Fazio used his unique talents to design a dramatic, memorable Island Course. The front nine is a lowlands course with several holes along the Potomac; the back winds through a wooded ridge that has a mountain-like feel. At 6,902 yards from the championship tees, this course satisfies both high and low handicappers.
Stunning in its own right, Hills’ River Course complements Fazio’s layout with smaller undulating greens that mirror the natural terrain. Stretching 7,006 yards from the championship tees with water in play on 10 of its 18 holes, the River Course offers strategic golfers a true test of their skills.
A Full House
Situated on a 120-foot bluff overlooking fairways and the Potomac River, the Lowes Island clubhouse has formal and casual dining areas, a lounge, an exercise facility, locker rooms and an award-winning golf shop. A full slate of social events, including parties, sports tournaments and special celebrations, is always on tap. In addition to the practice range, there are year-round tennis facilities and swimming programs. Six clay tennis courts, including two indoors, are adjacent to the Tennis Shop, which offers equipment and merchandise. The Island House adjoining the 25-meter swimming pool has a snack bar and locker rooms. While parents are dining or playing golf or tennis, an Island Hoppers program keeps children entertained in a supervised indoor or outdoor activity center.
Golfers and non-golfers alike will appreciate the outstanding amenities at the Lowes Island Club. With several categories of membership, from full golf to social packages, the Club can fit your needs. A limited number of full golf memberships are available.
