Golf in Harrisonburg

Harrisonburg is the independent city home of James Madison University in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, a city whose growth from a modest valley market town to a vibrant university city of over 50,000 reflects JMU's extraordinary enrollment expansion over the past three decades. The Shenandoah Valley's agricultural landscape, the surrounding mountains, and the university's culture create a dynamic community. Two golf facilities — JMU Practice Golf and Spotswood Country Club — serve the Harrisonburg community. 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.
