Golf in Signal Mountain

Signal Mountain is a Hamilton County municipality atop the Signal Mountain plateau, a broad sandstone tableland that rises abruptly from the Tennessee River gorge west of Chattanooga. The mountain's name comes from its Civil War use as a Union signal station during the Chattanooga Campaign, and the bluff-line views across the Tennessee River gorge toward Lookout Mountain and the Chattanooga basin are among the most dramatic in the region. The community on the plateau has developed as an affluent residential enclave for Chattanoogans who value the cooler temperatures, the views, and the separation from the urban valley floor below. The drive down the mountain — whether by the Suck Creek Road or the Signal Mountain Boulevard — is a commute with genuine scenic character. Golf on Signal Mountain shares the plateau's elevated setting and serves the community's prosperous residential population.
