About The Nest Golf Club

The Nest Golf Club in Bonita Springs predates the surrounding Pelican Landing development. It was originally created by Pelican's Nest Associates, a partnership of Westinghouse Communities, the Ritz Carlton Hotel and the Registry Hotel, with the aim of building a championship golf destination. Westinghouse Communities operated the course, while the two hotels held priority for tee times for their guests.

The first 18 holes, laid out by architect Tom Fazio, opened to public play in 1985. In its early years the course drew well-known players including Gary Player, Sam Snead and Lee Trevino.

Early facilities on the property included a golf shop, a practice putting green and a small clubhouse with a meeting room, bar and dining space. A compact restaurant named Redfish stood beside the eighteenth green, serving food prepared largely in the main Nest kitchen and brought over each day.
