Shadow Wood Country Club

Shadow Wood Country Club is a private, gated golf community in Estero. The club offers 54 holes of championship golf across three courses designed by Bob Cupp and Arthur Hills. Amenities include two clubhouses, tennis, bocce, multiple dining options, and several social events. The Club will add a resort-style pool, cabana bar and an indoor pickleball facility in 2026.

The community features a variety of homes across 32 neighborhoods, surrounded by lakes and preserves. The Preserve development is located in the southern part of Fort Myers, roughly 15 minutes away from the main community in Estero. Residents have the opportunity to join the Commons Club, which adds private beach access, state-of-the-art fitness center, another restaurant, and several other amenities at an extra cost. The community is conveniently located a short drive away from Coconut Point, Miromar Outlets, RSW airport, and several other shopping and dining options.
