Lansdowne Resort Named 2024 Smart Stars Award Winner

Lansdowne Resort has been named a 2024 Smart Stars Award winner in the Best Golf Resort category from Smart Meetings Magazine.

The resort’s 45 holes of golf harmonize with its rolling Potomac River Valley setting on 500 acres in Loudon County.  Golf is available exclusively to members and resort guests.

The Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course is a 7,063-yard, par-72 where accurately judging the elevation changes is key to success. While friendly, the strategic layout demands golfers be at the top of their game.

The second 18-hole layout is designed by the legendary Great White Shark—Greg Norman. The course incorporates the undulations of its Potomac River setting as it winds through a mature hardwood forest and beside rocky outcroppings. Those natural elements combine with historic sites on the 3rd and 4th holes to form the course’s distinct character.

Additionally, Sharkbite—also designed by Norman—is nine holes long enough to present a challenge for experienced golfers looking for some quick play yet appealing for players of all ages and skill levels. Five sets of tees deliver total yardage of just over 2,300 from the back tees and just 870 yards from the juniors-only tee box.

Besides the three golf courses, Lansdowne Resort has a double-sided practice range, a golf academy for all levels of players and is among the few instructional facilities in the mid-Atlantic to offer an advanced biomechanics system to capture every swing motion, then analyze it – from address to follow-through – to determine strengths and weaknesses.

The Smart Stars Awards have become a meeting industry touchstone and continue to be an essential tool for planners worldwide. Smart Meetings readers are the dedicated audience that votes for their favorite properties in 31 prestigious categories, from airlines and airport hotels—across the country and the world—to hotel brands, golf resorts, conference centers—even cruise lines.

The winners were announced in Smart Meetings magazine and on the website at Smartmeetings.com.
