After previewing a Pelican Marsh home for a customer coming to Naples this weekend, I thought I'd drop by the clubhouse and golf course to see what was going on. Armed with video camera in hand, I was hoping to get some shots of Pelican Marsh just in case the staff would be nice enough to allow it and guess what...they couldn't have been more accommodating! Everybody was SO nice!
So, I took a ride...I've shown and sold properties in Pelican Marsh for years now and feel very in tune with the real estate aspect but I must admit...I'm not a golfer. This was my first venture around the Pelican Marsh golf course. I couldn't get over how happy and relaxed everybody looked. All of the staff was helpful and cheerful and the other golfers were friendly and warm.
The Pelican Marsh golf course was in impeccable condition. The golf paths were scenic and spotless as well as the many magnificent Pelican Marsh properties that line much of the course. It was if I was just now figuring out why Pelican Marsh had such a loyal following although I knew it was a special community long before today.
While I was filming I came across a few other golfers on the course. The first group appeared to be a grandfather/grandson. I actually caught a few shots and put them in my video...it's a true testament that regardless of what's going on in the world it really is all about how you want to spend your time. It was a precious moment I bet those two remember for a long time. I know I will. I saw couples playing together too but primarily today I saw more groups of gentlemen than anything. When I say gentlemen, that is what I mean. They were all so friendly by inviting me to continue my track without making me wait for them to swing and even had one who joked, "you forgot your golf clubs"!
I continued around the course driving past places I've shown, places I've sold and places where past friends once lived. There are good memories and fun times and I can't help but imagine that magical place called Pelican Marsh holds the same experience for most who live there even if for only part of the year.
So without further adieu, here's Pelican Marsh Naples Florida as seen through my eyes...at least for today.
Best Regards,
Your Naples Smart Girl!
