The Woodlawn course at Fort Belvoir Golf Club occupies land within the Fort Belvoir military installation in Fairfax County, Virginia, roughly twenty miles south of Washington, D.C. Designed by Tom Clark and opened in the mid-1990s, the course serves active duty military, retirees, Department of Defense civilians, and their guests. The property sits in the rolling Piedmont terrain characteristic of northern Virginia, with mature hardwoods framing fairways and elevation changes that add strategic interest to the routing. Clark's design emphasizes playability for a broad membership while incorporating enough length and hazard placement to challenge skilled players. The layout moves through wooded corridors and more open sections, with water features coming into play on several holes. Greens are typically moderately contoured, and bunkering is straightforward rather than severe. The course reflects the practical design priorities common to military golf facilities: durability, efficient maintenance, and accessibility for members of varying abilities. Fort Belvoir Golf Club operates as part of the installation's Morale, Welfare and Recreation program, and the Woodlawn course anchors the facility alongside practice areas and clubhouse amenities. The club serves a transient military population as well as long-term local members, creating a community atmosphere shaped by the rhythms of military life. The course provides a convenient and affordable option for service members and their families stationed in the greater Washington area.
