Golf in Cape Coral

Cape Coral is a large planned city in Lee County on the Cape Coral peninsula, separated from Fort Myers by the Caloosahatchee River. The city was developed around an extensive canal system and is among the largest cities in Florida by land area. Two courses serve Cape Coral — Coral Oaks Golf Course and Hunters Run Executive Golf Course — in a city where the dense residential fabric and the canal network define the suburban character. No hole-count data is in public records for Hunters Run. The proximity to Fort Myers and the year-round subtropical climate sustain the local golf market, though the ratio of courses to population is modest compared to some other Southwest Florida communities given the city's extraordinary land area.
