Cedar Point Country Club is located at the confluence of the Nansemond and James Rivers in Suffolk. The Civil War ironclads, Monitor and Merrimac, battled in the waters of Hampton Roads just outside the clubhouse windows. Since its founding in 1964, Cedar Point has evolved into one of the premier country club environments in Southeast Virginia.

The crown jewel of the club is the recently renovated 18 hole championship golf course. The course is immaculately maintained with greens that are fast and true. Well groomed bunkers and attractive landscaping reflect the conscientiousness of the caretakers. The golf course is challenging and presents plenty of temptations to the more polished golfer.

A first class 9 hole par 3 course presents some of the most spectacular vistas in the entire Tidewater area. Other diversions at the club include a complete tennis center with both indoor and outdoor courts, croquet court, driving range, putting and chipping greens, and a seasonal swimming pool. Both the golfing and tennis centers are staffed with certified professionals and include well stocked pro shops.

The Cedar Point clubhouse offers a formal dining room and casual grille room; both with panoramic views of the water. Additionally, the facility contains a private meeting room, art gallery, locker rooms, and the golfing center. An outdoor terrace is a nice area to relax and mingle with friends after any activity. Weekly events keep the clubhouse alive with members and their guests.

Mature pines, oaks and sycamores overhang the marsh, adding beauty and majesty to the design.
