The Lords Valley Country Club is located within the gated community of the Hemlock Farms Community Association (HFCA) in Pennsylvania. However, the LVCC is not affiliated with the HFCA, and in fact, the LVCC is actually older than the community. This is why you don’t have to be a resident there to be an LVCC member.
Membership is limited to just 400 members, so it’s basically unlikely for anyone to get in unless you get an invitation. Membership does have its perks, including the picturesque surroundings oozing with rustic elegance.
It offers a USGA-rated championship golf course, along with a lush green environment and gorgeous lakes. Even a simple walk around the area offers a serene experience amidst the brilliant foliage. All these are part of the reason why it’s ranked 31st among all the private country clubs in the US.
Aside from the golf, LVCC offers 10 outdoor Har-Tru tennis courts, with plenty of tennis pros to help you out. The 18-hole golf course also comes with a driving range, chipping and putting greens, a golf shop, and a grill and snack bar on the 19th hole. Of course, there are other dining facilities, along with a swimming pool.
No one’s telling anything at all about the membership initiation fees and annual dues. What is known is that the LVCC offers several types of memberships.
The General Membership is the most expensive, as it offers full access to all the club facilities at all times. This member also has votes and can serve on the Board.
The Seasonal Membership also offers full access to everything, but this is only from September 15 to May 15. Seasonal members can’t vote and cannot serve on the Board, though they may serve on club committees. The membership can be renewed each year, but only with the approval of the Board. But seasonal members can convert to a full general membership at any time.
There’s also the Social Membership, and this offers full access only to the dining facilities and swimming pool. However, the Social Members can play golf or tennis a total of 4 times a year.
For new applicants, there is the Preview Membership. It is like the General Membership, but it’s only good for a year.
