Nestled among the lakes in Windermere, Florida, the idyllic little town on the outskirts
of Orlando is a beautiful parcel of land. For many years this land was a top producing
orange grove.
In 1998, two great companies, Castle and Cooke and Jack Nicklaus’ Golden Bear
Enterprises partnered to develop this land into one of the outstanding private golf
club communities in the state of Florida. Taking what Mother Nature provided, the
developers shaped and enhanced the land into something that is really special.
With approximately 1,000 acres of land, 250 of which is golf course, this community was
designed so that residents and golfers aren’t on top of each other. Many home sites boast
beautiful views of the golf course, ponds, preserve or lakes.
