The center of the clubhouse, this two level space offers magnificent views of the 9th and 18th greens, as well as the Dominion Lake. The second level features a full-service bar, chandelier lighting, fireplace room with baby grand piano, and a plush leather sofa lounge. Overlooking the 360 degree balcony, you will find a gorgeous spiral staircase and 600 square foot hardwood dancefloor. The lower and upper rotundas may be rented independently, or reserve the entire room for events up to 300 people.
Private Dining Room
Just off the Rotunda, this room is an intimate setting for meetings and parties from 20 to 50 people. As with all of our banquet spaces, the Private Dining Room is adorned with luxurious carpet and elegant wall coverings. The room also features a wraparound porch adjacent to the greens and lake.

Our second story boardroom is ideal for private business meetings and upscale luncheons up to 30 people. Features include a drop-down projection screen, plus wireless internet and conference phone access. A second door leads to a balcony patio with outdoor seating perfect for dining or just pure relaxation.
Lakeside Lawn
This is our most beautiful setting for outdoor receptions up to 300 guests. The lush green lawn and large patio are adjacent to the breathtaking Dominion Lake. Across the water is the Wyndham Gazebo, the perfect site for an unforgettable wedding ceremony.
Swim & Racquet Club
For summer cookouts or casual parties of any kind, this area boasts a junior Olympic size swimming pool, a separate bar with outdoor lounge seating, premium sound system, and a large patio for up to 300 guests.
Room Capacities
These numbers correspond to the maximum capacities given a simple setup (i.e. just tables and chairs).

Function Space
The food and beverage minimum must be met for the space rented. Please refer to the room rates chart above for these fees. Function rooms are assigned according to number of guests and anticipated requirements. The Dominion Club reserves the right to reassign function space and rental fees.
Menu
Menu must be determined at least 30 days in advance of event. Any changes made after this point must be authorized by the Executive Chef and the Catering Director. Any food purchased or made elsewhere may not be brought on the property without the expressed written permission of Dominion Club management.
Bar Service
The sales and service of alcoholic beverages are regulated by the Virginia ABC board. The Dominion Club is the only licensed authority to sell and serve alcohol on the premises. The club does not allow any outside alcoholic beverages brought on the property. If a minor is found consuming alcohol, the club reserves the right to terminate the function at the client’s expense. The club may also refuse service to any guest for any reason. Cash bars are subject to an additional fee of $200 per event, charged to the host client.
Prices
All charges are subject to 20% service charge and 5% state sales tax. This will be included on your estimate. Because of the fluctuating nature of the market, The Dominion Club reserves the right to adjust menu prices accordingly.

Members are exempt from all deposits, but are still subject to the entire cancellation policy. Member events may be posted to member account, or must be paid in full the day of the event.
Final guarantee
A guaranteed count is required for all functions at the time of booking. The Catering Director must be notified of the final guarantee at least 7 days in advance of event. If the final guarantee is less than 75% of the original estimate, this will be regarded as the amount due.
