About this course

The Meadows Golf & Country Club sits in Christiansburg, Virginia, in the New River Valley region of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The course was designed by Ray Vaughn, a regional architect active in the mid-to-late twentieth century who worked primarily across Virginia and the Carolinas. The layout occupies rolling terrain characteristic of southwestern Virginia, where elevation changes and natural contours shape the playing experience. The routing takes advantage of the property's topography, with holes moving through a mix of open meadowland and wooded corridors. Players encounter varied lies and approach angles that require thoughtful club selection and course management. Water features come into play on several holes, and the design incorporates strategic bunkering that rewards accurate shotmaking while offering recovery options for golfers of different skill levels. The Meadows serves as a centerpiece for a private country club community in the Christiansburg area. The club provides traditional amenities including dining facilities and social programming for its membership. The course appeals to local and regional golfers seeking a well-maintained layout in a setting that reflects the natural beauty of the New River Valley, with views of the surrounding mountain landscape framing many holes throughout the round.

Getting there

The journey to The Meadows Golf & Country Club begins at Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport (ROA), a compact gateway serving Virginia's New River Valley, roughly thirty minutes north by car. The drive traces Interstate 81 southwest through the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge, then exits onto quieter state routes that wind through pastoral farmland and wooded ridges before arriving in Christiansburg. The final approach reveals the club tucked into the gentle terrain of the valley floor, a serene counterpoint to the dramatic mountain skyline visible to the east - an arrival that feels less like reaching a destination than slipping into the unhurried rhythm of Southwest Virginia.
