Pre-launch answers for North Venice / Venice golfers.
Clear expectations before you join the founding list.
Is Shellwood Bay Club open now?
No. Shellwood Bay is in the founding-interest and demand-validation stage.
Where is the initial location focus?
The Venice-area location focus is near SMH Venice, with convenient access from the Technology Drive / I-75 corridor and nearby residential communities.
Who is this location best for?
Medical professionals and hospital staff, PGT and nearby corporate teams, Venice-Nokomis Elks/community members, retirees, snowbirds, North Port/Venice golfers, and regional players from Sarasota, Bradenton, and Lakewood Ranch.
Does joining the list cost money?
No. The list is no-payment and no-commitment.
Why is realistic putting emphasized?
Because simulator golf often loses authenticity near the green. Shellwood Bay is built around completing holes and preserving scoring pressure.
Will there be leagues and events?
Leagues, corporate events, guest access, family/social use, Elks/community groups, and private hosting are all being validated through founding-list responses.
When will pricing concepts be shared?
Pricing concepts depend on site costs, buildout, bay count, operating hours, and founding demand. The form collects budget ranges so the first tiers are grounded in real local interest.
How is my information used?
Your information is used for Shellwood Bay planning and launch updates. It is not a membership contract and no payment is collected.
