GOLF & TOURNAMENTS

Long Mean The Long Mean is widely considered one of the best golf course designs in Southwest Florida. Designed by Ron Garl and opened in 1983, the Long Mean pays homage to traditional Scottish course architecture by incorporating natural design and strategic play. Course enhancements were made by Kipp Schulties in 2018 with an upcoming project in 2026 led by architect Kris Spence to modernize infrastructure and hone numerous design elements. The Long Mean has hosted the 2022 U.S Women’s Mid Amateur, the 2021 Florida Open, and the 2010 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur.

Loch Ness The Loch Ness provides an appropriate challenge for players of all skill levels. A Ron Garl design, the Loch Ness originally opened in 1983 as the “Wee Friendly”. The course underwent an extensive renovation in 2018 led by architect Kipp Schulties and was renamed the Loch Ness, inspired by newly created lakes and inlets. The Loch Ness is a shot-makers course that will test every club in your bag and provides scenic views incorporating natural stone and native landscaping.
