After several delays, golf and entertainment company BigShots Golf aims to open their newest location in Naples next year.
BigShots Naples will offer a 12-hole golf course, restaurant, and virtual golfing experience.
Collier County purchased the Golden Gate Golf Course in July 2019 for $29.1 million with the goal of saving green space and preventing overdevelopment in the area. It was a 165-acre property bought with $28 million of borrowed funds.
Back in 2021, the Collier County Board of County Commissioners gave BigShots approval to revamp part of the Golden Gate Golf Course property with a new entertainment facility and golf course.
Collier County Commissioner Burt Saunders said BigShots faced financial issues afterwards which caused the company to refinance the project. At Tuesday’s Collier County Commission meeting, commissioners voted to give BigShots a sixth and final extension to finish financing the project. In 60 days, BigShots representatives will provide the commissioners with an update on the project and evaluate if they are able to move forward.
