Frequently Asked Questions

How can I play The Old Collier Golf Club if I'm not a member?

This is a truly private club, so getting on isn't easy. Your best bet is to know a member who can invite you as their guest, which is how we've been fortunate enough to experience it. Don't expect public tee times here; it's all about exclusivity and a pristine experience.

When is the best time of year to play The Old Collier for ideal conditions?

We highly recommend visiting between November and April. During these months, you'll enjoy Florida's perfect golf weather - sunny, low humidity, and comfortable temperatures, which makes the walk around this Fazio masterpiece even more enjoyable. Avoid the summer unless you love heat and humidity.

What's unique about The Old Collier's course design compared to other Florida courses?

Tom Fazio really outdid himself here, creating a course that feels much older and more natural than its actual age. You'll find a distinct lack of housing development, focusing instead on the natural Florida landscape, which is a refreshing change from many modern designs. The bunkering is strategic and the greens are always a challenge.

What should I expect regarding the cost of a round at The Old Collier?

As a guest, you're looking at a premium experience, and the green fees reflect that exclusivity. While exact guest fees vary, expect them to be on the higher end, comparable to other top-tier private clubs in Florida. It's an investment in an unforgettable day of golf, not just a casual round.

Beyond the golf, what kind of overall experience does The Old Collier offer?

The focus here is purely on golf and an understated luxury. You won't find a sprawling resort, but rather an impeccably maintained clubhouse, top-notch practice facilities, and service that anticipates your needs. It's a place where the golf is the star, and everything else supports that world-class experience.
