If you are looking to live in a neighborhood without a cookie-cutter feel, this is a neighborhood to consider for your next home.
The Clubhouse
The Clubhouse of Scenic Hills Country Club Estates has been serving the community since 1958 and had a complete renovation in 2008. The club offers a robust calendar of activities. It’s a perfect location for weddings, receptions and events, but also fills its calendar with smaller community events and fundraisers. The last event I attended was a charity BINGO event.
The Clubhouse also has an excellent restaurant and bar area to enjoy a meal with your family, or a bite after a round of golf.
Membership at the Scenic Hills Country Club includes discounted privileges to golf course and cart rental, choice tee times, and advanced use of the full facilities and event access.
Close to Essential Businesses and Amenities
Scenic Hills Country Club Estates is in a very convenient area. The neighborhood is less than a mile from banking, gas, coffee, groceries, pharmacies, gyms, and medical facilities. Within 5 miles, there are over 70 restaurants. When you aren’t eating at the clubhouse, there are numerous other options to choose from. The neighborhood is near Target and Walmart Marketplace and close to the upcoming Cosco location.
The Scenic Hills Golf Course
Scenic Hills Country Club Estates is found on the Scenic Hills 18-hole championship golf course. There are a wide range of tee boxes to challenge golfers of any level. This course was also the host of the 1969 USGA Women’s Open, the only course in the state of Florida to host a US Open.
The course has a newer fleet of quiet-tech gas carts and has invested in all new machinery for course maintenance, so that you know when you play here, you will be playing a well-kept course.
Hiking and Biking and Other Outdoor Activities
Scenic Hills Country Club Estates is located near a variety of outdoor activities, aside from golfing. It is less than a mile from popular hiking and biking trails at the University of West Florida. You can hike, bike, or even ride a horse on the West Campus Trails, enjoy a hike on the half-mile boardwalk through the Thompson Bayous on the Edward Ball Nature Trail, or any of the three scenic walking routes of the Main Campus.
The neighborhood is also just over a mile away from John R Jones Park, a 63-acre park with baseball fields, playground and adult softball complex.
