Forest Glen
Real Estate in Naples, FL
Forest Glen Golf & Country Club was ranked Number One, and the only Florida course in the Top Ten in North America, in 2013 by The Golf Channel’s GolfNow for its online booking program. The community advertises itself as “A club of distinction for those who desire a community with friendly people, superior golf, quality tennis, and first-rate dining in the serenity of a nature preserve.”
Forest Glen defines convenience. The gated and 24-hour guarded main entrance is only a mile south of Interstate 75 Exit 101 on Collier Boulevard. That makes Forest Glen convenient to Naples, the Gulf of Mexico beaches, Marco Island, Southwest International Airport, Ft. Myers, and even Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. Forest Glen’s immediate neighbor across Collier Boulevard is Cedar Hammock Country Club.
Most of the 630 acres is nature preserve, providing a buffer around the entire community, keeping outside noise to an absolute minimum.
Forest Glen is comprised of six different neighborhoods with executive, estate, single-family homes, condos, coach homes, and attached villas. (Read More)
