Description

Fincastle Country Club is unique because it is located in the Greater Bluefield Area and is a mountainous community made up of not one, but two cities - Bluefield, Virginia and Bluefield, West Virginia. Known as "nature's air conditioned cities," free lemonade is served when the temperature reaches 90 degrees or greater.

Designed by noted golf course architect Dick Wilson, the course opened for play in 1963. Fincastle was on of Mr. Wilson's last designs before his death in 1965. Mr. Wilson is noted for his design of the "Blue Monster" at Doral, Laurel Valley and Seminole.

Fincastle has hosted two West Virginia Opens, two Virginia Junior Championships, one West Virginia Junior Championship, one Virginia Golf Association 4-Ball Championship and annually serves as a qualifying site for USGA and VSGA events. Fincastle hosted the 1997 Women's Western Junior Championship.

At 2600 feet in elevation, the course places a premium on shot making with the short irons and the putter.

Amenities

With a recent $100,000 renovation to the Olympic size pool, the Fincastle Members are taking full advantage of the mountain views while lounging in the cool mountain air. The pool is ideally located between the clubhouse and tennis complex. A snack bar and bathing facilities are also located at the pool area for the members convenience.

Once again, with the spectacular views, it is very difficult to keep one's concentration while playing on one of our four Har True tennis courts. Two courts are lit for nightly enjoyment.
