Bay Colony Golf Club • 18 Holes • 300-Member Cap

Golf & Membership at Bay Colony Golf Club

Bay Colony Golf Club is a private 18-hole championship course designed by Robert von Hagge at 9740 Bent Grass Bend in the Pelican Marsh area of North Naples. Membership is capped at 300 golf members, the club follows a no tee time policy, and the 75-home Estates at Bay Colony Golf Club surround the course.

Bay Colony Golf Club is one of the most exclusive golf addresses in North Naples. Gently rolling fairways, large greens guarded by bunkers, and water on many holes make the par-72 layout a real test, while the low membership cap keeps the course uncrowded. The club is a separate private equity club, not part of the gated beachfront Bay Colony community inside Pelican Bay.
