Good Morning!
We are pleased to announce the addition The Islands of River Wilderness, a private, gated golf and boating community on its own secluded Florida Gulf Coast island, to the GolfCourseHome Network. Hundreds of acres of land surrounding the community, including an adjacent island, are protected with conservation easements.
Recreational boaters living in The Islands of River Wilderness enjoy direct access to the Manatee River and the Gulf of Mexico, as well as an internal harbor system that connects directly to the river without the need of a lift system.
