Fort Myers, Fla. – Colonial Country Club has completed a comprehensive, multi-million-dollar renovation of its amenities, including the golf shop, cart barn, pool area, and community center. This project follows the recent $9 million golf course renovation, further elevating the member experience at the club.
The golf shop underwent a complete remodel, focusing on offering quality apparel and goods at member-friendly prices. The cart barn was rebuilt and expanded, reopening with a new, upgraded fleet of carts; a new storage mezzanine with double the bag storage capacity; a club fitting room; additional merchandise storage and a staff break room. The wellness center now features additional meeting spaces, a revamped selection of athletic wear, new gym equipment, an enhanced sound system, acoustic paneling in fitness areas, complimentary daily coffee and fruit stations, and digital signage. The pool deck has been remodeled to include weekend DJ entertainment, chef-attended grills, and drink specials.
These enhancements have significantly contributed to the club’s vibrant atmosphere, leading to the largest revenue month in Colonial’s food and beverage history this past March.
“Over the last several years, Colonial has remained focused on making thoughtful investments that enhance the overall member experience while also positioning the club strongly for the future,” said Colonial Country Club Board President Dan Casciano. “We committed ourselves to doing these projects the right way the first time. Through strong planning, teamwork, and oversight, these projects were completed on schedule, under budget, and without sacrificing quality. We are extremely proud of the outcome and appreciative of everyone who played a role in bringing this vision to life.”
“We wanted every enhancement to feel intentional and member focused. What makes me most proud is not just the physical transformation, but the people behind it,” said Colonial Country Club General Manager and COO Robert D. Podley CCM, CCE, CAM. “Our team remained incredibly committed throughout the process, continuing to deliver exceptional hospitality and service while operating through construction and change. Their passion, adaptability, and dedication to our members are what truly brought these enhancements to life.”
Earlier this year, golf course architect Gordon Lewis led course renovation work that focused on improving playability, aesthetics, and sustainability of the 24-year-old course.
