Foxfire Country Club

What Foxfire Country Club does

Foxfire Golf & Country Club is a private, for-profit bundled residential community located at 1030 Kings Way in Naples, Florida, spanning 385 gated acres and encompassing 931 residences ranging from condominiums and verandas to villas and single-family homes. The community was established in 1984 by U.S. Homes Development Corp., with membership in the club automatically bundled into every property purchase, eliminating separate initiation fees and tying club economics directly to the residential real estate cycle.

The club's core asset is a 27-hole championship golf course masterfully designed by renowned architect Arthur Hills, featuring a distinctive Florida-shaped signature lake and configurable as three nine-hole routings. Supporting amenities include a 20,000-square-foot contemporary clubhouse housing three dining venues (a Main Dining Room seating 220, a Grille Room, and a Halfway House with terrace), a state-of-the-art fitness center equipped with Matrix machines and operated in partnership with TriCore, three lighted Har-Tru tennis courts, three professionally designed bocce courts, an Olympic-size main pool, a golf shop, and PGA/LPGA instruction. The community supports a dense social calendar of clubs, leagues, themed dinners, and private events.

Foxfire operates on a subscription-recurring revenue model driven by member dues, assessments, and bundled real estate activity, supplemented by F&B, golf shop, instruction, and private event catering revenue. The club completed an extensive 2024 capital program covering irrigation, fairway regrassing, fitness center, dining, pool, and recreational facilities. It employs 101-250 staff led by General Manager Donald Shea (promoted from Head Golf Professional in December 2012), and uses the MembersFirst platform for its member portal and website. No institutional or private equity ownership has been disclosed; current ownership appears member-based through the homeowner structure.
