Lennar is Building Calusa National Golf Club…Will It be More of the Same?

This is the question we all want to know about Calusa National Golf Club in Lakewood Ranch: will it be more of the same?

I should first say that “more of the same” is not necessarily a bad thing—if prospective customers keep coming back to the well to drink water, you keep filling the well. For Lennar, the builder of Calusa National Golf Club, the formula has been to rinse and repeat a bundled golf course concept and sell a very similar assortment of floorplans. But as we learned in Lakewood National, Lennar had to adapt—they took some of the very same floorplans in River Strand Golf & Country Club and simply offered them in Lakewood National. While that worked for a while, interest ultimately waned—the floorplans needed a “reboot”…the well was running dry. So they modernized the plans and it was a resounding success—the floorplans became more open and contemporary finishes were incorporated.

So what will Lennar do this time around? Lennar is rumored to have a fresh concept in store for the golf course—the preliminary word on the street is that there will be an 18 hole golf course and a 12 hole executive course at Calusa National Lakewood Ranch. So, that is an exciting development. My hope is that we also see a fresh assortment of floorplans too. As much as I love vanilla ice cream, I also love chocolate and strawberry.

One thing I can tell you—when the floorplans come fresh off the press, you will see them right here. Is Calusa National Golf Club the right fit for you? Maybe. I worked for Lennar and have SOLD HUNDREDS of bundled golf course homes. Let me show you your options…you decide.
