How to swing
summer savings
The weather isnt ideal for golf,
but the prices sure are
By Laura J. Cummings Gates
If you can stand the heat and the occasional downpour, summer is the best
time for locals to hit the links. Most golf courses offer discounted rates, and
many private clubs open to non-members who purchase special passes.
Stoneybrook resident Pete Bartlett usually sticks to his home course
during season, but he likes to play more high-end courses in the summertime.
Through discount programs, hes gained access to some of Southwest
Floridas top courses, including Tiburn, Olde Cypress, and Bonita Bay.
They are expensive, Bartlett says, and normally, if you dont play with a
member, you dont get to play them.
Old Corkscrew, a Jack Nicklaus signature golf
course, is discounting summer membership. For
$350, golfers get unlimited play through Oct. 15. They
pay only a $25 cart fee each time they hit the course,
says golf director Don Edwards, adding, We have
specials on our website every day.
Heres a look at some other great golf deals in
Southwest Florida:
Ultimate Golf Experience
The Ace Groups Ultimate Golf Experience
Book offers discounted golf rounds at 30 of the
best golf courses in Southwest
Florida, including many private
courses. In Estero, that elite list
includes Grandezza, Miromar Lakes,
Old Corkscrew, Pelican Sound,
Copperleaf, West Bay Club, and
Wildcat Run.
At Miromar Lakes Golf Club,
annual membership is $14,000 while
an afternoon-only membership for
the summer months (May-October)
runs $3,000. With the Ace book,
golfers can skip the membership fee
and enjoy unlimited golf through the
end of October for $45 a round.
The Ultimate Golf Experience
Book is available online at www.
theacegroupclassic.com/ultimate-
golf-experience-boooks or by calling
(239) 593-3900. Books are $48 or
two for $67, with discounted golng
through October at most courses,
with a few running year round.
Big Summer Golf
The Big Summer Golf Card offers
similar benets, with discounts at
67 courses in a 15-county area. Lee
County courses include Eagle Ridge,
Coral Oaks, Copperhead, and Majestic
Golf Club, where cardholders can
LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM | JULY 2013 13
play for $22 instead
of $50 during the late
summer months.
The card also
includes Quail Run
Golf Club in Naples.
Golfers can play a
round for just $25 on
this private course
through the end of
October.
The Big Summer
Golf Card may be purchased for $60 at www.

discounts at 14 championship courses: Tiburn, The
Colony, The Dunes, Gateway, Hammock Bay, LaPlaya,
Naples Grande, Pelican Marsh, Pelicans Nest, Pelican
Preserve, Raptor Bay, The Rookery, The Strand, and
Wyndemere.
A round of golf at Tiburn designed by golf legend
Greg Norman runs just under $200 during peak

with the Player Pass, the cost plunges to $45. Player
Pass discounts are good for four rounds of golf at each
participating course.

ABO SAN LUCAS,
Mexico also known simply
as Cabo, is a great spot for
tourists and beach-goers
world-wide. What began as a small shing
village is today one of the top tourist
destinations lled with fantasy, adventure
and 360 days of sunshine!
Located at the very tip of the Baja
California Peninsula, Cabo is bordered by
the Pacic Ocean and Sea of Cortez. The
most popular activities involve the water.
Cabo is also known as The Marlin Capital
of the world, as well as The Aquarium
of the World. With one of the largest
reefs in the world the snorkeling and
scuba diving are well worth the trip and
for the sherman in you, Incredible! If
golf is your thing, then youve come to the
right place. Championship golf courses
are both challenging and unbelievably
beautiful. High season runs from
November to May with the Christmas
holidays being the busiest time and youll
nd plenty of spring breakers and families
in mid-March.
According to Lisa Crawford, Founder/
CEO of SitInMySeats VIP Tickets, Travel &
Concierge Services, a stay at Las Ventanas
Al Paraiso is your window to paradise. I
feel very comfortable recommending one
of the most acclaimed resorts ever to
our most discerning clientele who visit
time and time again and seem to always
capture their rst magical moment.
Las Ventanas has redened luxury,
pampering, and hospitality. The desert
beach hideaway in Los Cabos captivates
guests with expansive suites, inspired
cuisine and the salon and spa, the resorts
recently unveiled sanctuary of renewal
and revitalization. One of our clients
recently visited Cabo and requested a
private Tequilla tasting paired up with
food from a well-renowned Mexican chef.
No problem for the Team at SitInMySeats.
And what can you say about a sultry
Cabo night? What happens in Cabo,
stays in Cabo the longtime mantra. Club
and bar hopping on foot is easy and the
lounge music and theme parties draw
beautiful people to the wide array of hip
international clubs. The celeb hangouts
have all-day and all-night happy hours,
beautiful people, and the latest grooves
from the hottest DJs in downtown. So as
you can see for yourself Cabo Rocks!

You dont have to go far
to get away and for a good price
18 JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM
L
ast summer, Dawn Balliets family went on vacation just 20
minutes from home. She didnt have to endure the incessant,
Are we there yet? chorus from her three young girls, and
she could easily sneak away for a couple hours if work
demanded it. Plus, the off-season rates on Little Hickory
Beach were terric.
We get it for cheaper, and its like a little mini vacation, says Balliet,
who owns a local Home Watch company. We have the best beaches in the
country, so why not just stay here?
Many locals choose to staycation in Southwest Florida, enjoying a
relaxing change of scenery while taking advantage of the smaller crowds
and lower rental rates of summer.
The off-season rates are very appealing to vacationers who live in
Florida and are looking to get away but still stay in paradise, says local
Realtor Kevin Yankow, who rented the summer retreat to Balliet.
Vacation spots like Sanibel and Captiva are a good place to visit while
the trafc to and from is lighter, he adds.
Balliet said her girls ages 8, 5, and 3 love to simply play in the sand.
Shes planning to rent another place on the beach this summer, whether its
for a long weekend or a full week.
You dont have to deal with the crowds on the beach in the summer
time, she says. Its so nice and relaxing.
The Balliets usually bring the family dogs and take them to nearby Dog
Beach, so they get a chance to run free in the surf. Christine Goll and
her family like to take their Chiweenie, Bella, to the dog park at Estero
Community Park.
Shes just a puppy, so she needs to run her energy out, Goll says. We
like letting her run free.
While Bella plays, the three Goll girls ages 9, 11, and 13 venture over
to the beach volleyball area or the big hill in the park. While theyve nearly
outgrown playgrounds, the family enjoys outdoor recreation together. The
Golls own kayaks and often launch onto the Estero River in the morning
or evening to beat the heat.
Its really peaceful going up and down the river, Goll says. People are
real friendly along the riverbank. Sometimes youll see a manatee, birds,
or jumping sh.
The downside of summer is the heat. Many local families look for indoor
activities to have some fun without working up a sweat.
Summer camps, Vacation Bible School, and library programs are the
staples of summer for many Estero families with children. They also look
forward to free or discounted movies offered at local venues.
The Carofano family often heads to Gulf Coast Town Center on Tuesday
nights for a free outdoor movie, along with $1 burgers from Bar Louie
and $1 ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery. They usually catch a few
$1 movies at Regal Cinema in Gulf Coast Town Center, as well. Her two
daughters also enjoy free skating at Bamboozles once a week (sign up for
the Skating Club).
Aimee Skolmutch started the summer with a trip to the newly opened
Zoomers Amusement Park with her daughters graduating fth grade class.
Her girls also like to jump around at Pump It Up and participate in special
events through the Lee County Library Systems Summer Reading Program.
We try to do things indoors in summer, Skolmutch says.
An array of childrens activities and summer camps are offered at the
Golisano Childrens Museum of Naples (CMON), the Imaginarium Science
Center and the Edison and Ford Winter Estates. The three malls in Estero
also are offering a great lineup of summer fun including outdoor movies, a
talent competition, and street-corner musicians.
Here are some additional suggestions for summertime boredom busters:
GET WET
If the heat makes your family want to cool down at the pool,
try Sun-N-Fun Lagoon at North Collier Regional Park. Attractions
include ve water slides, a lazy river, an aquatic playground, tadpole
pool, and a high-dive near the lap pool. www.napleswaterpark.
com.
The Skolmutch family likes to visit the Fort Myers Aquatic
Center, where admission is just $3 for kids and $4 for adults. The
center features a Junior Olympic sized competition pool and a
zero-entry kiddie pool, as well as a 30-foot Slide Tower. www.
cityftmyers.com/aquatics.
GO GEOCACHING
If your family hasnt tried geocaching, summer offers the perfect opportunity.
More than 50 caches are hidden near the CREW Marsh Trails and the CREW
Cypress Dome Trails, and another 34 are hidden at the Bird Rookery Swamp Trails.
Caches are lled with fun trinkets if you can nd them! Find GPS coordinates
on www.geocaching.com and begin the hunt while enjoying a walk through
the wetlands. The Golisano Childrens Museum also maintains some caches for
curious kids. Visit www.cmon.org for descriptions and links to the coordinates.
Geocaching.com also has coordinates to other caches around Lee and Collier
counties and beyond.

Sleeping Beauty in the Childrens Theatre

THE ESTERO SUMMER SAVINGS
DINING GUIDE
As a father of two preschoolers and another one on the
way, Kevin Yankow doesnt even attempt to dine out with
his family during peak season.
You can easily be waiting 45 minutes to sit down, says the
owner of Key Real Estate. Not every restaurant has a good plan
to occupy a 3-year-old and a 5-year-old.
Summertime offers the Yankows an opportunity to get into
their favorite restaurants Marsalas, Outback Steakhouse, and
Carrabbas without a wait. They also venture to new restaurants
during the summer.
Estero has so many dining options with the three large malls,
you could probably eat at a different restaurant every day of the
year, Yankow says.
While a few local eateries choose to close down for the summer,
others capitalize on full-time residents appetite for good food
without the wait. Summertime can be the perfect time for families
and couples to grab a deal on a high-quality meal.
