Lansdowne Resort has scored a hole-in-one by winning the 2024 Smart Stars Award for Best Golf Resort, as voted by the discerning readers of Smart Meetings Magazine.
Perched in the scenic Potomac River Valley, Lansdowne Resort spans 500 glorious acres in Loudoun County, offering 45 holes of golfing paradise exclusively for members and guests.
First up, the Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course. This beauty stretches 7,063 yards with a par-72 layout.
It’s not just about power here—judging those sneaky elevation changes is the secret sauce to mastering this course. Friendly yet demanding, it calls for golfers to be on their toes.
Then there’s the gem by the Great White Shark himself—Greg Norman. His 18-hole masterpiece makes the most of its riverside setting, winding through mature hardwoods and rocky outcrops.
History buffs will get a kick out of the historic sites on the 3rd and 4th holes, adding a touch of charm to an already stellar course.
For a quicker round, head to Norman’s Sharkbite course. This nine-hole challenge ranges from just over 2,300 yards from the back tees to a mere 870 yards from the juniors-only tees, making it fun for all ages and skill levels.
Beyond the fairways, Lansdowne offers a double-sided practice range and a top-notch golf academy.
It’s one of the few spots in the mid-Atlantic where you can find an advanced biomechanics system to dissect and perfect your swing from start to finish.
The Smart Stars Awards are like the Oscars for the meeting industry, with categories spanning from airlines to conference centres.
Smart Meetings readers, the industry’s movers and shakers, cast their votes to crown their favourites.
Winners were announced in Smart Meetings magazine and online at Smartmeetings.com.
