8 Benefits of Belonging to a Golf Club

If you’re the type of player who practices putting in your living room and counts down the days until your next round, you’ve probably already asked yourself, “Is a golf membership worth it?” The short answer is… YES! But, to help you make an informed decision, we’re sharing eight golf membership benefits below – some of which extend beyond the fairways and greens!

Nailing Your A-Game

There’s no secret formula here. The more you play, the better you get. And members naturally play more than those who don’t belong to a golf club. Every swing moves you one drive closer to the score you’re aiming for, especially with unlimited use of The Golf Club at Lansdowne practice facilities – which happen to be the area’s largest.

Improved Well-Being

Studies indicate that playing golf delivers an impressive number of physical and mental health benefits. Think: improved cardiovascular function, core and upper-body strength, balance, stress reduction and possibly even a longer life span. Of course, there are also the scientifically proven wellness advantages to immersing yourself in green spaces, like parks or golf courses.

Superior Conditions

With their high volume of play, it’s difficult for public-access golf courses to maintain optimal conditions. As one of the most respected private clubs in the Mid-Atlantic region, The Golf Club at Lansdowne is proud of the exceptional care our expert team gives to all three of our golf courses, designed by Greg Norman and Robert Trent Jones, Jr. And, when summer rolls around, the always-verdant, heat-tolerant Zoysia grass on the Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course is a true member favorite.

Attractive Amenities

Another point of pride at Lansdowne are the world-class resort amenities accessible by our golf club members. These include coveted on-site dining, a fully-equipped fitness center and an immersive outdoor pool complex as well as multiple tennis and pickleball courts. Club members also enjoy preferred pricing in our Pro Shop and highly acclaimed Spa Minérale.

Sense of Community

As a golf club member, you have the opportunity to socialize and network with people who share your passion for the game. That common interest encourages fast and lasting camaraderie on and off the greens. Hallmarks of The Golf Club at Lansdowne include access to our stunning 43,000-square foot clubhouse and a number of highly anticipated members-only social events held at our AAA Four-Diamond resort throughout the year.

Host with the Most

When it’s time to commemorate milestones in loved ones’ lives, you can bring together family and friends for a festive celebration at Lansdowne Resort. Our members can take advantage of generous savings on catered gatherings and golf outings when they host their private, corporate or charitable events on the property.

Far-Reaching Privileges

To ensure the most value for your dues – and avoid the monotony of playing the same course every time – it’s advisable to join a club that provides golf membership for multiple courses. The Golf Club at Lansdowne delivers 45 championship holes – the largest offering in the area – where variety is the name of the game. Members can enjoy the parkland style of the Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course and the scenic setting of the Greg Norman course, which winds its way through the Potomac River’s marshy floodplain.

Players joining at the Young Professional or Premier Golf Membership levels receive the added benefit of Troon Privé. This perk provides exclusive privileges to play at other private clubs in the Troon portfolio for a preferred rate – along with a host of golf and lifestyle benefits to be enjoyed around the world.

Welcoming a New Generation

The nine-hole design of Sharkbite offers the ability for young or novice players to build their skills in a relaxed environment. Members often share their love for game with their children on this course because it is easier, less crowded and unintimidating, as fellow club members understand this is where beginners come to play and learn.
