Wilderness Country Club Real Estate

One of Naples’ most established private country club communities, Wilderness Country Club was developed in the late 1970’s and the aptly named golfer’s haven is a sanctuary set on 200 acres of Florida’s most scenic land.

Wilderness is named as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary, recognized for their natural surroundings and being home to an amazing variety of birds and native wildlife species.

Perfectly located with “in-town” Naples convenience off Goodlette Frank Road just north of Golden Gate Parkway, Wilderness is only 2 miles from the major north-south artery of U.S. Highway 41, also called Tamiami Trail.

The history of this golf course community is rich and colorful, with the development occurring on the Frank family’s cattle ranch in the early 1970’s. The family knew that there was a great need for more golf courses for wealthy Naples visitors and new residents, he partnered with the esteemed team of Wes Downing and Early Frye, who would later form the prominent Downing-Frye Real Estate firm.
