NAPLES, FL, UNITED STATES, December 12, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Vineyards Country Club officials today announced the completion of the extensive redesign and renovation of its iconic North Course, a championship 18-hole course originally designed by renowned golf architect Mark McCumber.

The project, which began in March 2024, culminates in a state-of-the-art, visually captivating, environmentally mindful course which enhances the golfing experience for players of all skill levels.

This milestone follows the successful transformation of the community’s South Course, completed in December 2023.

Led by acclaimed architect Kipp Schulties and implemented by QGS Development, the North Course renovation reflects Vineyards Country Club’s continued commitment to premier golf experiences, sustainable course design and member satisfaction.

“Our North Course renovation takes Vineyards Country Club’s golf experience to unprecedented heights,” said Vineyards Country Club Chairman and Co-Owner, Michael Procacci Jr. “These enhancements deliver not only a visually appealing, strategic course layout but they also embrace the natural beauty of Florida’s landscape in a way that enriches both our members' enjoyment and our community's ecological balance.”

Key North Course renovation highlights include:
Enhanced Course Design: Expanded yardage from the professional tees brings the North Course up to championship level, offering unique challenges with newly contoured fairways, larger greens and natural aesthetic elements such as stone cap walls, wood bridges and indigenous South Florida landscaping.

Upgraded Greens and Turf: The entire course has been re-turfed with Bimini Bermudagrass on tees, fairways and roughs, complemented by TifEagle greens for optimal playability and resilience.

Bunker and Drainage Innovations: Bunkers have been refurbished with Par Angle White sand (also known as Pro/Angle bunker sand), while advanced drainage systems and a new Toro irrigation system improve water efficiency and course durability.

Environmental Considerations: With reduced maintained turf areas, water usage and chemical inputs are minimized, reinforcing Vineyards Country Club’s commitment to sustainable practices. The new drainage system, approved by Collier County, enhances stormwater management, benefiting the club and surrounding areas.

The North Course’s new design embraces a distinctive “Old Florida” aesthetic, integrating native palm trees, oaks and lush ground plantings to create a scenic, environmentally thoughtful layout complementing the South Course’s character while providing an entirely different golf experience.

Vineyards Country Club officials will celebrated the North Course completion with a grand reopening celebration including two shotgun start tournaments, enabling members to experience the course’s enhancements firsthand.
