The staff there is very pleasant. Especially in the pro shop. Abby is very pleasant and always helpful. Garrett and Kevin are always ready with a smile.

The Fazio layouts are incredible. Staff is excellent. Hayes is the man. Hes like an air traffic controller for a golf course. Hundreds of rounds a day and runs totally smooth. The courses are always in great shape with the amount of play they gets. Its almost hard to believe. Tons of nature awaits. Birds, gators, etc. Even the cart girls are great. Cant wait till next time.

Very upscale community. This event was outdoors so challenging for all. They went to great lengths to take care of residents in spite of 56 degree weather.

Always a great time....we played the Gator course today. Great greens!

As summer members of Pelican Nest, we attended the Summer Members Appreciation evening on Friday, June 22. We were impressed with the warm hospitality extended by full members, making us feel right at home. The staff extended themselves to ensure we felt comfortable locating a table and directing us to food stations. The food was wonderful and the entertainment and wine tastings added to the enjoyment of the evening. We arrived at this event as strangers but left with lunch and golf invitations in hand. By the way...we have also taken advantage of golfing both courses and found it playable for our differing golf levels.Thank you, Pelicans Nest, for enriching our summer!Janet & John Niedzwicki

Fazio courses in great shape!

Excellent golf course and facilities

Over the past two years, one thing has been constant at Pelican’s Nest Golf Club: change. During that time, both The Gator Course and The Hurricane Course, have been completely renovated, from tee to green. The results will amaze you.In renovating The Nest Bel Jan created a “course within a course.” These “scoring tees” eliminate a lot of the fairway hazards and make each course a lot easier to manage and navigate your way around. While the championship tees are identified with Roman numerals, the scoring tees are identified with an “S” and have their own scorecard. Many members use them on a regular basis and comment on “how much more fun the game has become” since they started incorporating them into their weekly rounds. After all, lower scores mean happy members!Number 18 (Teaser) is a par 5 that plays 498 yards (Tee III) and is one of the best finishing holes of golf in southwest Florida; in fact, it’s rather scenic standing on the tee. It’s one of those holes that yields as many birdies and eagles as it does the dreaded “others,” and presents yet another risk/reward opportunity at The Nest. The hole is a dogleg right around a lake with a narrow landing area. The water on the right can come into play for longer hitters. A good drive down the right side will present a good opportunity to go for the green in two. It’s about a 220 yard carry over water to a relatively flat green. If you play it as a three-shot hole, be sure to avoid the sand that protects the green on either side. This hole provides a fitting end to a great round of golf.Also of note is the first hole; after all, how many times do you start your round out with a par 3?The Nest also boasts some pretty impressive practice facilities including a full length driving range where you can hit every club in the bag; trust me, you’ll need them all. There’s a short game area complete with practice bunker in a separate area near the 18th green as well as a good size practice putting green. The driving range is conveniently located a short walk from the clubhouse.Although The Nest features 36 holes of spectacular golf, members need more than just a great golf course. The Nest delivers by putting together a very active social calendar for their members full of programs and the events that are unrivaled by any other country club in the area. Each event has a well thought out theme; many are centered around special days such as Valentine’s Day, Easter and Mother’s Day.

Just spoke to AJ , director of sales. I was very impressed with the information about the courses. Apparently they just renovated both courses. This will definitely be on my list for courses as I pursue a private membership in the near future.

Two excellent Fazio golf courses. Staff very helpful.Great overall experience

No too bad

One of best golf clubs in SW Florida!
