Where history meets modern play

Fort Myers Country Club, affectionately known as “The Fort,” opened in 1917 and is one of the oldest golf courses on Florida’s west coast. Designed by Donald Ross, the course is nestled along the picturesque McGregor Boulevard, just about a mile south of the historic Edison/Ford Winter Estates. In the 1920s, notable figures like Thomas Edison and Henry Ford were frequent players here [Source].
