Bonita Fairways Golf Club, Bonita Springs, FL

Jimmy Lynn – President of Lifestyle Management Group of Florida – has come a long way since we first met in 2011. After spending 10 years in the golf industry, running sales and marketing for the largest publisher of golf travel information in the world, I had taken a position outside of golf but was still doing a little writing about golf courses and equipment. On the occasions I was sent some equipment, I would head over to the driving range at Gateway Golf and Country Club. I had worked out a deal with then General Manager, Jimmy Lynn, mentioning his club’s facilities in those earlier articles. Our friendship grew and we ended up playing a fair amount of golf together. Life happened; Jimmy moved to a club down in Naples and I relocated to Lakeland to be closer to family.

Fast forward 12 years and we both have new, successful career paths. Jimmy found an investor and they created Lifestyle Management Group of Florida which owns and/or manages four clubs in Southwest Florida: The Club at Westminster, Quail Creek Village, Bonita Fairways, and The Club at Gateway. As a management company, LMGOF’s goal is to elevate each private club and make them relevant in every aspect of services, facilities, and finances, thus creating sustainability for the long term with elating membership.

In the words of Jimmy Lynn, Bonita Fairways Golf Club in Bonita Springs “Is an amazing success story. During the season, the tee sheets are always full, and the Cafe is packed.” The par 61, 3500-yard golf course was designed by Gordon Lewis and is anything but a pushover with six holes in the 300-yard range. The golf course is surrounded by a nature preserve and the lakes that you’ll encounter as you play your way around the course will challenge both your short game and your long game as well! The course was renovated in the summer of 2021, and with its impeccable conditioning, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a quick round of golf with family and friends.

Before your round, warm up your short game and putting stroke on the full-size putting green. There’s a fully stocked pro shop in case you need any last-minute necessities, and the Bobcat Café can handle your thirst and hunger before and after your round.

Lifestyle Management Group of Florida has proven to be a top-notch golf management company in SW Florida. Lynn adds “We don’t want to be a big company but only want to be truly hands-on in all things we do and partner with the clubs we manage. If you need help or just want to talk shop please call Jimmy Lynn at 813-767-3855. I’ve known Jimmy for a long time and one thing is certain, he always delivers! Good things will come from Jimmy Lynn and his staff at LMGOF.

Felt like robbed by poor service. Booked tee time 3:03 by telephone call. Specified we will do 18 holes. Paid at the clubhouse for 18 holes, never got to 1st tee until 3:20. Finished the front 9 by 5:05 because it was so cramped only to fined out the clubhouse had closed... could not use any washroom facilities which are none existing on the course. Never got any further than the 10th hole because it was getting darker and we were busting at the bladder... It was alright to take our money and disappear at 5 o'clock sharp. The course is not bad but I WOULD DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMEND IT BECAUSE OF THE POOR SERVICE. Even on line booking tee times specifies past 4 o'clock bookings!!!!! The person at the clubhouse must have known for sure how busy it was... the starter knew.
