Golf at Fiddlesticks
Two Ron Garl-designed championship courses offering distinct challenges — The Long Mean at 7,077 yards and Loch Ness at 6,243 yards. Both exclusively for members and their guests.
Our Courses
Widely considered one of the best golf course designs in Southwest Florida, The Long Mean pays homage to traditional Scottish course architecture with natural design and strategic play. Course enhancements were made by Kipp Schulties in 2018, with an upcoming 2026 project led by architect Kris Spence to modernize infrastructure and refine design elements. The Long Mean has hosted the 2022 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur, the 2021 Florida Open, and the 2010 U.S. Senior Women's Amateur.
#18 — A dramatic par 5 finishing hole. Reachable in two for the bold, with water guarding the approach and green. One of the most exciting closing holes in Southwest Florida.
Originally opened in 1983 as "The Wee Friendly," the Loch Ness underwent an extensive renovation in 2018 led by architect Kipp Schulties and was renamed to reflect the newly created lakes and inlets. A shot-maker's course that will test every club in your bag, Loch Ness provides scenic views incorporating natural stone and native landscaping. It offers an appropriate challenge for players of all skill levels.
#9 — The number one handicap hole. A narrow, demanding par 4 with water in play that tests every aspect of your game. Don't let the yardage fool you.
