Golf in Covington

Covington is an independent city on the Jackson River in Alleghany County in the western Virginia mountains, an industrial city whose paper manufacturing industry has been the economic backbone of the community for over a century. The WestRock (formerly MeadWestvaco) facility and the surrounding mountain landscape of the Allegheny highlands create an industrial-mountain community character distinctive in Virginia. Cliff View Golf Course serves the Covington community in the scenic Jackson River valley. The broader Virginia community's investment in recreational infrastructure — golf courses, parks, and outdoor amenities — reflects the quality-of-life standards that have made the state consistently one of America's most desirable places to live and work.
