The Hammock Bay Golf Course is a fully-refurbished layout on what was once the site of Marco Shores Golf Club. WCI, a property developer and management company, contracted with PGA Tour player Peter Jacobsen to completely rebuild the site into a brand new golf course, and since opening in January 2004 Hammock Bay Golf Course has become one of Naples most popular venues.

This golf course represents the best in both design and conditions: the greens and fairways are impeccable - lush and green the year round. It’s an exclusive, private golf club, but you can play the course by taking advantage of the golf special listed below. And speaking of the golf special, with in-season fees at Hammock Bay of $175, this one represents incredible value for money.

The 18-hole Hammock Bay course plays just under 7,000 yards from the tips for a par of 72, a course rating of 73.4 and a slope of 134. Designed by Bruce Devlinand Robert von Hagge, and redesigned by Peter Jacobson, the Hammock Bay golf course re-opened for play in 2004. The facility is managed by WCI Communities, Inc.

Green Fees: $175 weekends, $175 weekdays, $60 twilight, includes cart; subject to change, so please check with the golf club for up to date rates
