Luigi's Italian Gourmet Restaurant has a history that goes back more than 60 years, before we opened the first Italian restaurant offering authentic Italian cuisine in Roanoke, Virginia. It all started with a soldier returning from deployment, who happened to stop by a small Italian restaurant back in 1945.

Nestled in the beautiful mountains of Botetourt and Roanoke Counties not far from Hollins University, Carvins Cove Natural Reserve is the second largest municipal park in the United States. This 12,700 acre park contains an 11,200 acre watershed that drains into the Western Virginia Water Authority's Carvins Cove Reservoir, the largest source of drinking water in the Roanoke Valley.
The 50-mile trail system and service roads at Carvins Cove Natural Reserve are available for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. The terrain is moderately to steeply sloped, with an elevation gain of more than 1,000 feet from the reservoir to the peaks of the surrounding mountains. Guests can also enjoy boating and fishing in the reservoir. Hours do vary seasonally. Land use and boating rules and fees help provide recreational opportunities for visitors to the cove while still maintaining the safest, highest quality drinking water possible.
For more information about Carvins Cove, please call 540-563-9170 or visit www.westernvawater.org.
