Located in historic Venice, Florida, just west of I-75, The Venice Golf and Country Club is minutes from beautiful Gulf beaches and the picturesque Venice downtown shopping district, known for its interesting shops and dining.
The Club is a short drive from Sarasota, and convenient to Tampa to the north, and Ft. Myers and Naples to the south, but without the traffic found in those cities.
Golf at The Venice Golf and Country Club
This Ted McAnlis designed golf course is built around 26 lakes and 56 acres of nature preserves, some of the natural elements that define its beauty and difficulty. Wildlife is plentiful, and the International Audubon certified the golf course as a Audubon Sanctuary in 2005.
The golf program is managed by our PGA Head Professional, Mike Passilla, Assistant Professionals, Keith Kralis or Michael Fream and their staff. The Golf Shop offers private lessons, playing lessons, club fitting and repair, club demo days and a variety of clinics, from beginner to advanced for men and women.
In addition to administering all league play for men, women and couples, the PGA staff schedules rules seminars and golf course tours with new members.
Membership at The Venice Golf and Country Club
VGCC is a private member-owned equity Club with 587 homes. Since its inception in 1992, members at The Venice Golf and Country Club have enjoyed the benefits of being a requisite membership community. Membership to the Club is integrated with each property and as such every household has a voice in determining the future of the Club. Requisite membership is key to sustaining the economic viability of The Venice Golf and Country Club. Homeowners choose from either Golf or Club Membership.
The Club maintains a solid long-range plan that protects existing capital assets and provides for new capital expenditures to enhance the Club amenities. The Venice Golf and Country Club is financially sound and committed to maintaining the highest standards for excellence and value. Two member run boards, (The Club Board and The Master Association Board) provide direction and oversight for Club management and maintenance of all common grounds and property standards.
Homeowners at The Venice Golf and Country Club must choose one form of equity membership, Golf or Club. This gives every homeowner a tremendous amount of protection for their investment and ensures ongoing financial security for the club.
