Yes, the hyphen in the name is intentional; the club is the result of a merger in February, 1899 of the Vesper Boat Club and Lowell Country Club.

Donald Ross was the original architect of this course, while in 2009 architect Brian Silva oversaw restoration of the bunkers and the greens, which were rebuilt to the USGA's tri-layer specification. Within their 18-hole course, the club has designated an "Island Course" made up of holes 1-4 and 14-18. That layout is provided here on a separate scorecard since it has been separately sloped-and-rated by the Massachusetts Golf Association.
