about the club

Lo ng before Sam Snead teed up the first golf ball at Mount Vernon Country Club, George Washington hunted foxes on its future fairways. The land on which the course sits has a long history – land given by an uncrowned king to guarantee the support of his closest friends; land given as a reward for services rendered; land fairly divided by close friends; land both inherited and purchased by Washington family members – one of them, the country’s first president.

After Harry Driesen and his wife spent many years acquiring the land, Golf Course Architect Russell Roberts designed the original nine-hole golf course which opened on June 3, 1961, later expanding to 18 holes.

Over the past 20 years the Club has continued to develop, including significant golf course improvements designed by Bill Love and Clubhouse and Pool Facility renovations. With rich history and a vibrant family environment, Mount Vernon Country Club has become one of the finest country club experiences in Northern Virginia.
