Lowes Island, VA is Heaven on Earth! 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) I honestly don't think if there's a way for me to recommend Lowes Island, Virginia highly enough as an incredible place to live. I have been living in Lowes Island for about 9 years now, and all I can say is that this is one of the best areas in Virginia that anyone could be bles ...Read More sed to call home. Everything about this place is amazing, from the people who live here, the fantastic schools, the great little local shops, cafes, and restaurants that have such charming little personalities of their own, the beautiful streets and neighborhoods and houses with their colorful gardens and fun holiday displays. I really can't imagine a place with more to offer. Even the weather is gorgeous most of the time!


There are some really awesome things to do for fun and recreation here as well. There's iFLY Indoor Skydiving, the Lemon Hookah Lounge, the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, Chibis Indoor Playground, the Escape Room Loudoun, and the Rockville Sportsplex. There's something for everyone here and it will all put a smile on your face. I love this little town and I wish everyone could live here and be as happy as I am. Read Less
