Shadow Wood was recognized as having one of the Top 10 patios in 2022 by Club & Resort Business Magazine!
Shadow Wood’s outdoor patio expands over 6,000 square feet, seats 188 comfortably, and has held as many as 300 for cocktail parties. Separated into 3 distinct but connecting areas, the patio space offers members everything from comfortable lounge seating, bar seating, dining tables, and seating around 6 fire pits. Weekly outdoor entertainment on the patio brings members together to enjoy the beautiful Southwest Florida weather while watching the colorful sunsets. From the west end of the patio, Members can watch golfers play the 18th hole of Shadow Wood’s South Golf Course or enjoy expansive views of the golf practice facilities from the south side. The patio was expanded in 2017 with the addition of the Bocce complex situated next to the outdoor bar, then again in 2019 in conjunction with a 10,000 sq ft casual dining expansion to connect the new outdoor areas. Due to the increasing popularity of the outdoor spaces, Shadow Wood is now in the process of building another outdoor area, which will be known as The Players Patio, opening Fall 2022. The new patio will be located on the East end of the building, adjacent to the Golf Shop and Locker Rooms, and will feature two fire pits and seat 120 members in both covered and uncovered spaces.
“So many of our members are seasonal and come to Southwest Florida to enjoy the beautiful winters here. Our goal was to provide a patio area for members to enjoy the weather in many different capacities that was more than just outdoor dining. There are numerous areas within our patio for the members to meet for cocktails after golf, watch a football game on Sunday, or enjoy live music by the firepits. The patio is the gathering spot at the club, and not only is it a popular venue for camaraderie within our membership, it also showcases the perfect glimpse into life at Shadow Wood for any prospective member who sees the energy and atmosphere on the patio.” - Danita Osborn, Director of Membership & Marketing
