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.
