Golf, food, and service were superior

-Rob G. “

We had a most amazing time

“Was there four years ago with a group of 26 lady golfers. We had a most amazing time. The villas were beautiful as were all the amenities. Looking to book another group vacation some time in 2019.”
-Susan B.

Welcoming staff and it carried thru

“From the moment we pulled in we were greeted with a welcoming staff and it carried thru to all working at this fine golf club. (Felt like a member at my own GC) Course was excellent in my opinion and greens ran true. Very windy day for us so it made things interesting. Lots of sand yes but only if you hit into it. 😉 Carts have GPS to help with distances and scoring. 👍🏻 Keep up the good work…I’ll be back.”
-Stephan B.

Wonderful…one of the best spots in Florida

Challenging but friendly, plenty of bailout areas

“Wonderful layout. Challenging but friendly, plenty of bailout areas if necessary. Long if you want, I had a lot of 4-6 irons coming home. Lightning fast greens!”
-Jeff M. “

Great golf courses and friendly staff.

“Great golf courses (played both Flamingo and Mustang) and encountered friendly and helpful staff. The Rangers did keep us playing at a good pace and I appreciated the friendly but firm way it was handled. Looking forward to our next visit already. Finished off the afternoon with a fantastic meal at Sam Snead’s.”
-Don F.

Lovely complex, beautifully maintained

“Lovely complex, we were at Green Links, beautifully maintained. We saw some fabulous sunrises!”
-Elizabeth F.

The greens were immaculate

“I played the Mustang course on 11/14. The fairways were generous considering the course is located in a resort neighborhood. The greens were immaculate and not as fast as I would have guessed. It was a fun course. I’m a 17 HCP and had no issues playing bogey golf. I was able to get a tee time as a single and was grouped with 3 great guys. This is one of the nicer courses near Marco Island that will allow non-members or non-resort guests to play. It was an exceptional experience and the staff was great.”
-Jason K.

Veal special cooked perfectly

“Menu is wonderful. Chopped chicken salad was great. Veal special cooked perfectly. Staff are usually very good and friendly. Atmosphere inside is great and the outside patio overlooks the golf course.”
-Edd K.

Voted best community multiple years

“What an amazing place to be in Naples. Voted best community multiple years. The 3 golf courses and resort amenities made it special.”
