Concert Golf Partners, which holds a portfolio of 35 private golf and country clubs nationwide and is focused on preserving each Club’s culture, identity, and traditions, has acquired the Golf Club of the Everglades from PulteGroup. The 261-acre club, designed by golf architect Rees Jones in Naples, FL, is the 35th private club nationwide to join the company’s portfolio.
Pulte remarked in a media release that it “identified Concert Golf as a ‘discerning purchaser’ that shared in its ‘commitment to preserve the historical exclusivity of the club’ and work with the surrounding 500-home, high-end Greyhawk community.”
Based near Orlando, FL, the Concert Golf family of clubs includes nine across Florida. The Golf Club of the Everglades joins the nearby Club at Renaissance (Fort Myers, FL), Gaillardia Country Club (Oklahoma City, OK), Glen Oaks Country Club (Des Moines, IA), TPC Jasna Polana (Princeton, NJ), The Club at Pasadera (Monterey, CA), and Marsh Landing Country Club (Ponte Vedra, FL).
“The Golf Club of the Everglades boasts a fantastic golf course, and we are proud to feature this club in our collection of exclusive private clubs nationwide,” said Concert Golf Partners Senior VP of Corporate Development, Jordan Peace. “With Concert Golf based in Florida, we are especially proud to invest in the Naples community, which has shown tremendous resilience and resolve through the recent hurricanes. We look forward to delivering exciting enhancements and first-class service to the Golf Club of the Everglades’ members.”
A pure golf experience, the Golf Club of the Everglades is a private, members-only club that is one of the most exclusive and respected in the Naples community. The community has one of the highest demands for private clubs in the country. Naples remains No. 1 in the “Best Places to Live in the United States 2024/25” rankings by U.S. News & World Report.
“We believe Concert Golf is the right partner to continue the exclusive and high-end service that is part of the fabric of the Golf Club of the Everglades,” said PulteGroup Director of Land Planning, Scott Brooks. “And we’re excited that the club is poised to thrive for many years to come under their ownership.”
Golf Digest recently described the Golf Club of the Everglades as a “hidden gem.” The club is home to a 7,352-yard, par 72, open links-style championship course Jones debuted in 2000, with a members-only clubhouse, restaurant and expansive practice facilities. Unlike most area clubs, Golf Club of the Everglades does not have tee times and members play at their leisure. The course carries a 75.1 rating and 137 slope. The club also features an 8-acre practice facility that Golf Life Navigators has ranked among the Top 5 in Naples, describing it as “the perfect setting to work on your game.”
