The Nest Golf Club (formerly Pelican's Nest)Bonita Springs

Pelican's Nest Golf Club is a 36-hole Tom Fazio design within the Pelican Landing community of Bonita Springs - two distinct eighteens of private golf refined to the standard of one of America's most respected architects. Both layouts weave through the wetland corridors and mature landscaping of the community, with the variety of routing that Fazio's reputation demands. Private membership community; members and sponsored guests only.

Tom Fazio designed both courses for the Pelican's Nest club in Bonita Springs. Jan Bel Jan carried out a renovation between 2016 and 2018 that earned ASGCA Design Excellence recognition, and the club has since rebranded as The Nest Golf Club.

Tom Fazio built two eighteens here, so the club is a 36-hole facility rather than a single course: the Gator, a par 73 of 6,930 yards from the tips, and the Hurricane, a par 72 of 6,743. Fazio worked the Bonita Springs site in his characteristic manner, using water and native vegetation to frame corridors rather than block them, which keeps the golf visually open while still asking for a committed line. Jan Bel Jan renovated both between 2016 and 2018, and both were re-grassed in Bimini Bermuda in 2024 and 2025.

Two Tom Fazio eighteens on one Bonita Springs property, both renovated by Jan Bel Jan and both re-grassed in Bimini Bermuda within the last two years. Play is restricted to members and their guests.
