Quail Creek Country Club
Quail Creek Country Club is a full-service, member-owned Club that was one of the first established in Naples. While we are located in the Quail Creek Estates community, you don't have to live here to be a member. In fact, seventy percent of our members live near the beach or in other neighborhoods. Our clubhouse and golf courses are surrounded by 291 estate-sized homes on lots of nearly an acre or larger. This, combined with mature trees and accent landscaping, creates feelings of spaciousness and tranquility, unlike most other clubs in Southwest Florida. When it comes to golf, our program and facilities are second to none. We feature two Arthur Hills-designed, 18-hole golf courses. And, by limiting our golfing members to 480, our members can always get a tee time. Our organized and casual golf groups, which are active all year long, will welcome you. As a full-service country club, we offer so much more than golf. In fact, we have something for every member of your family to enjoy. Participate in our active social and league tennis programs. Work out with a personal trainer or have a massage. Relax by the pool or play a game of bocce. Join any of our busy social groups, including bridge, investment, mahjong and book clubs, among others. Our culinary expertise is unsurpassed. Our outstanding chefs make dining a true experience here at Quail Creek. From casual lunch and dinner in our Greenside Grille, to spectacular buffets, theme nights and fine dining in our Cypress Room, you’ll enjoy memorable experiences when you dine here. Most importantly, Quail Creek members are truly exceptional. These successful, down-to-earth people are among the friendliest you will ever meet. They come here to relax, have fun and socialize. From the moment you step on campus they’ll welcome you in. You'll feel like you belong because you will.
