About Vanderbilt Country Club

Vanderbilt Country Club is a private, gated bundled-golf community in North Naples, located off Vanderbilt Beach Road east of Collier Boulevard. Encompassing more than 322 acres, the community includes 800 residences surrounded by an 18-hole championship golf course, lakes, natural preserves and mature landscaping. Housing is divided among 102 single-family estate homes, 120 detached villas, 338 carriage homes and 240 condominiums, providing buyers with several distinctly different residential and maintenance options within the same country club environment. Established in 1999, Vanderbilt Country Club has continued to reinvest in its golf, clubhouse, recreational and lifestyle amenities, creating a mature community with updated facilities.

One of Vanderbilt Country Club’s most important distinctions is its bundled membership structure. Every homeowner is also a club member, and golf and club privileges are included with residential ownership rather than requiring buyers to separately secure a golf membership. The lifestyle extends well beyond the golf course with clubhouse dining, resort-style swimming, fitness and wellness facilities, tennis, pickleball, bocce and an extensive calendar of social and recreational activities. This combination makes Vanderbilt Country Club particularly appealing to buyers who want golf to be an integral part of their Naples lifestyle while also having substantial amenities available away from the course.
