Country Club Renovation

Recent Renovation

In 2014, The City of Fort Myers embraced renovation of the nearly 100 year old, 100 acre municipal golf course. The course closed for six months for extensive renovation, re-opening on October 31, 2014. Golf architect Steve Smyers transformed the course during the $5.8 million project with elevated bunkers and greens. The course received extensive modernization to drainage, turf quality, pro shop and bathroom renovations and operational efficiency. Six new water hazards in the form of filter marshes and lakes were added.

Renovation of the Fort Myers Country Club was designed and constructed to provide increased accessibility for players with disabilities. The new design allows all players to access routes to teeing grounds, putting greens, teeing stations, cart rental areas, bag drop areas and golf course restrooms. The “Fort” also provides an accessible cart for players that require such accommodations.

Fort Myers Country Club changed during the renovation from a par 71 to 70 for the men and 72 to 71 for the ladies.

Fort Myers Country Club does not have a driving range. If looking for a driving range, please visit our other City owned golf course; Eastwood Golf Course.
