On March 21, 1946, the vision for Troy Country Club became a reality when the club's incorporation papers were filed in Pike County, Alabama. The club was established with a simple but enduring mission: to promote fellowship among its members, provide an exceptional golf experience, and offer the social and recreational amenities traditionally enjoyed at a premier country club.

​

The incorporation documents were officially recorded on March 25, 1946, by Pike County Probate Judge Hon. Alex Brantley, with Pete Scarborough serving as witness. The original membership included a dedicated group of community leaders whose vision and commitment laid the foundation for what has become one of southeast Alabama's most treasured institutions.

​

Golf has always been at the heart of Troy Country Club. The original course featured nine holes, providing members with an outstanding golfing experience for many years. As the club grew, the course expanded to 18 holes in the early 1960s, further establishing Troy Country Club as one of the region's premier golf destinations. In 1998, the golf course underwent a renumbering to accommodate improvements and enhance playability.

​

Construction of the club's first clubhouse began in 1946 and was completed in the fall of 1947. For more than fifty years it served as the gathering place for generations of members and their families. In 1998, Troy Country Club entered a new era with the opening of its current clubhouse on Labor Day. Designed with sweeping views of the golf course, the new facility features expansive windows overlooking the 18th green, inviting dining spaces, and welcoming areas where members can relax, celebrate, and enjoy fellowship. Additional enhancements included an updated swimming pool and expanded kitchen facilities.

The years that followed brought continued investment in the club's future. In 2001, improvements included the addition of golf cart paths, expansion of maintenance facilities, and extensive tree replacement following damage caused by Hurricane Opal. In 2005, the club introduced a new fleet of golf carts, expanded membership opportunities with new membership categories, and launched initiatives designed to welcome a new generation of members.

​

Today, Troy Country Club proudly continues the legacy established in 1946. For nearly eight decades, the club has provided a place where families gather, friendships flourish, and traditions are passed from one generation to the next. Countless rounds of golf have been played, celebrations have been shared, and lifelong memories have been made on these grounds.

As we look toward the future, we remain committed to preserving the traditions that have defined Troy Country Club while continuing to enhance the experience for generations to come. Whether you have been a member for decades or are discovering our club for the first time, we invite you to become part of the next chapter in our story.
