Fiddler’s Creek, a private, 3,964+ acre master-planned community offering complete resort lifestyle amenities, has contracted to sell 227 single-family and coach home sites to Lennar Corp.

Lennar, a national homebuilder, plans to initiate construction on the sites soon beginning with the village of Millbrook within the Aviamar section in Fiddler’s Creek. The purchase represents the company’s entrance into the community and commitment to working with Fiddler’s Creek.

Construction is complete on the Chelsea model, the first of 38 classical Mediterranean style single-family homes to be built within the new village of Amador within the Veneta section of Fiddler’s Creek.
Offered by D.R. Horton, the Chelsea is a three-bedroom, two-bath floor plan with 2,159 square feet under air. Features of this home include a gourmet kitchen, lanai, courtyard entry, two-car garage and adequate space for an optional swimming pool.

Fiddler’s Creek has introduced the village of Amador, an enclave of 38 classical Mediterranean style single-family homes to be built within the master-planned luxury residential community.

Offered by D.R. Horton, America’s Builder, the village of Amador will offer a choice of three expansive three-bedroom floorplans, ranging from 2,582 total square feet to 3,562 square feet. Additionally, most of the homes within Amador will be situated with desirable water views.

A delightful blend of features will be evident throughout each home in the village of Amador, including a spacious kitchen to delight any chef, inviting courtyard entry, two-car garage and adequate space for an optional swimming pool. Home prices currently start from $379,990.

Hundreds of underprivileged children will find toys, games and other gifts under the Christmas tree thanks to the generous support of a group of Fiddler’s Creek homeowners.

This is the 10th consecutive year in which the homeowners have collected and delivered the toys to Manatee Elementary School in East Naples. This year, a record amount of items – approximately 400 – were delivered to the school for the young students and their siblings.

Each year, residents of Fiddler’s Creek and a few other organizations around town collect as many gifts as they can for the kids, whose parents are not as fortunate to be able to afford them on their own. The holiday gifts are distributed over two well-orchestrated days in which the unwrapped items are divided based on age and gender. Then, parents visit the portable “toy store” located on the school premises to pick up items with dignity and pride.

This year, the gifts collected by Fiddler’s Creek homeowners included games, dolls, trucks, educational toys, stuffed animals, books, novelty action figures, balls and other sports items.

Time to kick off the holidays here in Fiddler’s Creek! Check out the photos on facebook!

Fiddler’s Creek recently kicked off the peak buying season with an Open House Extravaganza that was attended by over 200 real estate professionals at The Club & Spa at Fiddler’s Creek.

The event gave the real estate professional the opportunity to experience first-hand the resort-style amenities and lifestyle opportunities available to Fiddler’s Creek homeowners. These amenities are a key factor in successfully selling and marketing of residences and the added value at Fiddler’s Creek.

More than 500 fiddler’s Creek members and their guests dined on a scrumptious buffet and enjoyed dancing poolside under a clear starlit sky.
The setting was appropriate for the party themed “White Hot Miami Nights.” But this was not South Beach. Rather, the location was The Club & Spa at Fiddler’s Creek, which had been transformed for the evening to welcome Fiddler’s Creek homeowners and their invited back to the community for the peak season.

The Welcome Back Party is one of several large parties provided annually for residents. There also are events to celebrate the Holidays and New Year’s Eve as well as the annual Passport Party, which treats residents to a buffet of international cuisine from the Pacific Rim, Latin America, the Caribbean and more. The social events at Fiddler’s Creek provide an opportunity to bring residents together to enjoy the superb resort-style amenities that are available at Fiddler’s Creek. Residents enjoy seeing their friends and neighbors who may have been away for several months and catching up on all their news while enjoying fine food and entertainment.

At the Welcome Back Party, residents were met with cool blue lights and live music entertainment by Final Countdown. Meanwhile, four professional dancers clad in white outfits performed on raised platforms, stopping occasionally to pose for photographs with the guests.

Along the pool area were several large banquet tables set with produce from the Farmer’s Market, the Grill House with Texas BBQ brisket, a Seafood Feast with fresh shrimp and oysters, a Hibachi Station and Chef’s Sushi Station, and a Sweet Endings dessert table. The menu was prepared by the Club & Spa Caxambas Restaurant team under the direction of Chef Eric Long.
After dinner, the energy moved to the dance floor as dozens of residents danced along with the band. The evening progressed with a breathtaking fireworks show and further entertainment.
The decorations, the entertainment and the food were over the top.
