Golf in Cape Girardeau

Cape Girardeau is the Cape Girardeau County seat and southeastern Missouri's largest city, perched on the Mississippi River bluffs with dramatic views of the river and the Illinois bottomlands. Southeast Missouri State University's enrollment and the regional medical center's healthcare employment sustain a professional community that gives Cape Girardeau the cultural and economic depth of a true regional center. Rush Limbaugh, the conservative media personality, grew up in Cape Girardeau, and the city takes pride in its role as a birthplace of political media influence. The broader Missouri community's investment in outdoor recreation reflects a quality-of-life commitment that sustains golf courses alongside parks, trails, and civic institutions that define what makes a Missouri community worth living in.
