I used to live down there. Some fantastic tracks. Some of my favs below.

 

Raptor Bay - Bonita Springs, but one of my favs

The Rookery - Marriot Course

Hammock Bay - Marriot Course

Tiburon

TPC Treviso

Lely - OK but I always seemed to have fun on the Mustang Course

 

and last but not least if you want to play night golf go to The Links of Naples. Course is a hole in the wall, but playing at night down there is just plain fun. Anytime a friend would come down from Michigan when I was down there we went and played and usually had the most fun. Pack up the cooler with Yuengling and have a blast.

 

Have great trip. I'm jealous

Going to play Tiburon end of January, wondering if it is worth playing both courses or just the Gold course? Playing the same day since I am taking a day trip to play Tiburon.

 

Black is better (tougher, more interesting). They play the pro tourneys on Gold b/c it’s better for spectators and closer to the Ritz. Both are good. See if you can save some $ by playing 36

For those that are open to the public Old Corkscrew is where it's at. Beauty and a beast truly. Tpc T Bay is also good if you can get a time, They have a lot of members. You'll love Naples grande if you haven't played it yet. A lot of the really good track, like Calusa are private but if you have the connect don't hesitate to go, one of the best in Florida imo.

I just returned from Naples over New Years. I played Old Corkscrew and Calusa Pines. Obviously, Calusa was incredible, but Old Corkscrew was also fun, the greens were tough! Pins were at the edges of ridges and near the collars all day. Lots of water and bunkers come into play as well. Can't comment on the others in the area, but I think you can get out to Corkscrew for under $100 if you search around on golfnow or another of the tee time sites. Enjoy the warm weather while the rest of us freeze.

+1 on old corkscrew. just played it last month with two of my fiends and we all three agreed it was our favorite in the area. very difficult track, 146 slope @ 6617 yards and 144 @ 6262. public jack nicklaus course with no houses. overall experience was awesome! also worth checking out are hammock bay and tpc treviso. we did not play any private courses

Heading just north of Naples in Ft Myers next month. Going to try to play 2 rounds as I'm going with family. No private connections but I'm thinking Old Corkscrew and Tiburon might be my choices! If anyone else has any recent info please let us know! I don't mind spending up a bit to play some of the best in the area, but travel needs to be around 40 each way tops.

Old Corkscrew?? I have played it once and found it to be unplayable. Based on the comments maybe they have made some changes but I would not go back to this course if I were paid to play here.
