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.
