An elevated planned community in southeastern Harrisonburg

Built around the Lakeview Golf Course, Crossroads Farm is a planned community on the southeastern outskirts of Harrisonburg with spacious newly-built homes and views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. “Harrisonburg has JMU, so a lot of students’ parents will come here and see the Valley and end up loving it,” says Danielle Sponaugle, a Shenandoah Valley native and Realtor with Re/Max Performance Realty. Many who are relocating to Harrisonburg for the peaceful atmosphere look to newer communities like Crossroads Farm. “Planned subdivisions are more down-to-earth and quieter than the older neighborhoods in Harrisonburg,” Sponaugle says. “You still have people living next to you, but you have a little more land.” The neighborhood has convenient access to the country roads that lead to hiking trails and outdoor spaces, but residents only have to drive 6 miles to go to dinner downtown or go to a football game at James Madison University’s Bridgeforth Stadium. The neighborhood also has a property owners association; annual dues are $600 per household.

Large new builds with golf course and mountain views

Streets wind through parts of the Lakeview Golf Course, creating an oval shape. Development in the planned community began around 2005 and has continued slowly and steadily, and some open lots are still available for buyers to build their homes. Half-acre lots are priced between $160,000 and $180,000. Crossroads Farm doesn’t require incoming residents to use a particular builder, but all home designs must be approved by the Architectural Review Committee. The neighborhood also has minimum housing sizes; one-story houses must be at least 2,100 square feet, and two-story houses must be at least 2,400 square feet. There are also townhouses and single-family homes available. “You have the new builds, and you can get much more bang for your buck for those than you can in Charlottesville,” Sponaugle says. Contemporary townhouses with colonial-inspired facades are priced between $300,000 and $330,000. Colonial Revivals and farmhouse-style New Traditional homes cost between $630,000 and $990,000.

Golf courses, hiking trails and parks near Crossroads Farm

The Crossroads Farm property association maintains Peale’s Park, a small green space with a walking path and benches to sit and enjoy views of Massanutten Mountain. Many homes are built on the Lakeview Golf Club course, and the clubhouse is just southwest of the neighborhood. The public club has three nine-hole golf courses and a couple of indoor simulator golf bays. Rockingham Park at the Crossroads is only a mile away and offers baseball diamonds for kids' games and bright green soccer fields. A one-mile walking loop for after-work walks and the large playground even has a zipline. A new recreational center is being added to the park, which will have athletic courts, an indoor track, and educational spaces; the building is on track to open by the end of 2025. Many residents take advantage of their proximity to the Blue Ridge Mountains and spend weekends on the trail. The Massanutten Ridge Trail, a rocky 2-mile trek that offers hikers sweeping views of the Shenandoah Valley, is about 13 miles from the neighborhood. The Swift Run Gap Entrance for Shenandoah National Park is about 18 miles east. For a slower-paced waterside stroll closer to home, residents can head to Lake Shenandoah—it’s also a popular fishing spot.
Golfers of Crossroads Farm can enjoy three 9-hole courses at Lakeview Golf Club.

Casual restaurants and local produce stands on Spotswood Trail

Harrisonburg’s most popular dining options are downtown, but there are strip malls with a few casual eateries on Spotswood Trail. Crossroads Café and Catering is a family-owned bistro with a contemporary atmosphere. The restaurant is open only Thursday through Saturday but also offers prepared meals for pickup and catering services. When the café is open, residents stop in for a sandwich and a smoothie for lunch at the end of the week or enjoy a waffle or burrito from the all-day breakfast menu. Vito’s Pizza Pie, a casual Italian eatery, is also close by. Locals can stop in for pizza and calzones and enjoy gelato for dessert. There are bins of fresh, seasonal produce and shelves of locally sourced goods at the Massanutten Produce stand, which is only a mile south on Spotswood Trail. Residents only have to drive 3 miles north on Spotwood Trail to reach East Market Street, Harrisonburg’s largest commercial corridor. Reliable chain restaurants and stores line the street; Martin’s, Aldi, Kroger, Walmart and Target are all within a mile of one another, making grocery shopping convenient. The Valley Mall is also on East Market Street; locals browse the racks at retailers like H&M, Old Navy, American Eagle and JCPenney.

Seasonal festivals at Massanutten Resort

There are plenty of seasonal outdoor activities throughout the Valley. Myers Pumpkins is a family-run pumpkin patch 2 miles from Crossroads Farm. Every fall, residents pick their own pumpkin or gourd, sip apple cider, and find their way through the corn maze. The Massanutten Resort organizes ticketed events like the Base Camp Summer Concert Series, where locals sip beer and wine, play lawn games like cornhole and giant chess, and enjoy live musical performances. At the resort’s fall festival, locals appreciate the golden foliage on scenic chairlift rides and shop local art vendors. In the winter, the ski slopes and snow tubing courses open as soon as temperatures drop, and the resort can produce machine-made snow.

U.S. Route 33 leads to downtown Harrisonburg

There aren’t sidewalks or public transportation options nearby, so the area is very car dependent. Crossroads Farm is located off U.S. Route 33, or Spotswood Trail, which is the major roadway that takes residents 6 miles northwest to downtown Harrisonburg or southeast toward towns like Elkton and Stanardsville. Drivers can also cross through the Blue Ridge Mountains and travel about 50 miles southeast to Charlottesville. Residents drive 3 miles northwest to East Market Street to merge onto Interstate 81, the highway that heads north toward northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. Locals can also drive south on Interstate 81 to link with Interstate 64 near Staunton, which goes to Charlottesville and Richmond. Residents don’t have to travel far for medical resources, as Sentara RMH Medical Center is 4 miles northwest.
