The single most important thing to understand about The Vineyards is that the country club is separate from the homeowner associations. It's privately owned by the founding Procacci family, debt-free, and run as a non-equity club. You buy a home in one of the gated enclaves, and you decide — independently — whether to join the club.
About 75% of residents do choose to join. But because the club carries no debt, members face no capital assessments and there are no food & beverage minimums — just a non-refundable initiation fee and annual dues. For buyers comparing Naples golf communities, that's a meaningfully different (and often lower-risk) cost structure than an equity or mandatory-bundled-golf community.

Designed by Mark McCumber, opened 1989. Underwent a ~$2M redesign in 2024 (Kipp Schulties Golf Design) adding tees and re-contoured greens.
Designed by Bill Amick, opened in the early 1990s and a former host of PGA Champions Tour events. Closed January 2023 for a ~$3M renovation — expanded greens and rebuilt bunkers.
Roughly 1,600 members play the two courses, generally on a cart-fee basis. Full Golf members can reserve tee times about a week out; Lifestyle members have more limited access. There are no public green fees except for accompanied guests.
The Vineyards has put real money into its amenities in recent years: a multi-million-dollar clubhouse and spa renovation completed in 2021, a ~$3M South Course renovation beginning in 2023, and a ~$2M North Course redesign in 2024. For a family-owned, debt-free club, that ongoing reinvestment is part of what keeps both the lifestyle and the home values competitive.
No. Membership is entirely optional. The club is privately, family-owned (the Procacci family) and operates separately from the homeowner associations. About 75% of residents choose to join, but you never have to buy a membership to purchase or own a home in The Vineyards.
Yes. The Lifestyle membership is designed for exactly that — it includes the wellness spa, fitness, tennis and pickleball, pools, dining and social events, with limited (rather than unlimited) golf access.
