Golf in Marion

Marion is the Smyth County seat in the Holston River valley of southwestern Virginia, a mountain community at the intersection of US-11 and I-81 in the Great Valley of Appalachia. The surrounding mountain landscape of Smyth County and the proximity of the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area — home of Virginia's highest peak at 5,729 feet — create the natural recreational context for a county seat community with strong Appalachian heritage. Holston Hills Country Club serves the Marion professional 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.
