Roanoke Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

Roanoke is the ideal place for family vacations that aim to take things easy and have leisurely and wholesome fun. This is why Roanoke lodgings, which are often affordable, are kid friendly and even pet friendly.  One of the things to do is to visit or join the games at the Roanoke Country Club. It is a 9-hole regulation length golf course that will allow all types of golfers, both neophytes and skilled, to practice their swings. The golf course is challenging enough but can be eventually conquered by any Tiger Woods wannabe.

Another thing to do is to go fishing. For travelers who love this activity, they will find that Roanoke offers various opportunities. There is the Bell Lake, which is technically part of the Lake Tuscaloosa. Bell Lake is a major reservoir of the Tuscaloosa County of Alabama. There is also the Bartlett Pond, which is a reservoir for the Randolph County, the same county to which Roanoke belongs. If the enthusiastic anglers wanted to fish and spend time in the Bartlett Pond, it best to have a local guide with them. The other fishing opportunities can be found in High Pine Creek Lakes, the McMurray Lake, the Lake Louise, the Rice Pond, and the Roanoke City Lake.
