About Pineville
Tucked into the rugged hills of southern West Virginia, Pineville serves as the welcoming county seat of Wyoming County. The town sits right where Rockcastle Creek meets the Guyandotte River, framed by forested ridges and its signature natural landmark, Castle Rock. While it originally grew as a hub for timber and coal, today's Pineville offers a quiet, close-knit mountain lifestyle with quick access to river fishing, scenic drives, and nearby ATV trails.
At the center of town stands the historic Wyoming County Courthouse, a handsome 1916 building crafted from locally quarried stone that anchors the community. Living here means enjoying a slower pace, familiar faces around town, and the convenience of being a central hub for the surrounding valleys. With its deep Appalachian roots and peaceful river setting, Pineville offers a classic small-town West Virginia feel for anyone looking to settle down in the mountains.
