Facilities/Location
RRC rows on the scenic Rivanna Reservoir out of the Thomas Temple Allan Boathouse at the Magruder Dent, Jr. Rowing Center which we share with University of Virginia women's and men's rowing programs.
The boathouse is situated on a hill overlooking the reservoir and includes a paved driveway, parking lot for 50 cars, and heated bathrooms and showers. We have approximately 5 miles of navigable, protected water with no power boat traffic.
If you are interested in the Rivanna Rowing Club, you may stop by the boathouse, located on Woodlands Rd. Detailed directions to the boathouse can be found on the Map and Directions page.
Alternatively, you can contact us by mail, phone, or email.
