Golf in Roanoke

Roanoke is Virginia's largest western city, positioned dramatically at the junction of the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountain systems in a valley that creates one of the most scenically situated urban areas in the state. The city's railroad heritage (Roanoke was built by the Norfolk and Western Railway), the Hotel Roanoke, and the Star on Mill Mountain create distinctive civic landmarks. Blue Hills Golf Course and Roanoke Country Club serve the city's recreational golf market in the mountain-framed setting. 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.
