Current Homes For Sale in Collier’s Reserve

In Collier’s Reserve, Size Does Not Set the Price

Every home here is a single-family house, most of them between 3,500 and 4,500 square feet. That makes the spread in what they sold for all the more telling.

Same size, more than double the price
Seven homes between 3,650 and 3,960 square feet sold in 2026, for anything from $1,550,000 to $3,400,000. That is $402 per square foot at one end and $917 at the other, for houses of almost exactly the same size.
The bands prove it
Homes that sold under $2 million had a median size of 3,851 square feet. Those that sold between $2 million and $3 million had a median of 3,845. They are the same size and sit about $700,000 apart.
What the sales records do not show
MLS data does not record condition, renovation or what a lot backs onto, and in a community built mostly in the 1990s and 2000s those are the likely drivers. Whether a house faces the river, the preserve or a fairway, and how recently it was updated, needs to be established for every comparison.
The cheaper homes negotiated hardest
Homes that sold under $2 million closed at a median of 82% of their final asking price, against about 94% for those above. The discount in this community sits almost entirely at the bottom of the range.
What to do with it
Price a listing against homes of similar condition and setting, not similar square footage. And ask what it originally asked, because thirteen of the fourteen 2026 sales closed below list, by a median of $285,000.

Collier’s Reserve Country Club Membership Is Required

Every owner joins the club, but golf is a separate and capped category. How much that cap matters depends on the year.

Membership is required of owners
The club states that membership is required if you own a home in the community. A social membership is the minimum, and golf is a separate category above it. The club is private and member-owned.
Golf is capped at 300
Full golf membership is limited to 300 members, and new homeowners are placed on a priority waitlist ahead of existing members and non-residents who want to upgrade.
Ask where the queue stands
The length of the resident golf waitlist varies as members join and leave, and at times it has been close to empty. Confirm where it stands with the club before counting on playing soon after you buy.
Some homes come with golf attached
Certain listings offer a full golf membership available at closing, which skips the waitlist entirely. That changes what a house is worth to a golfer, so ask whether a membership transfers with any property you are considering.
What it costs
The most recent published figures put golf initiation at $225,000 with annual dues of $26,450, and social initiation at $80,000, but they come from a single agent site and older sources quote lower. Owners also pay a master association fee, a food and beverage minimum and a capital reserve contribution, so ask the club for the current schedule in writing.

What to Know Before Buying in Collier’s Reserve

Collier’s Reserve is one of the smallest private club communities in Naples: 224 single-family homes on 450 acres, with no condominiums or attached homes behind the gate. It was built around the land rather than through it, and about 130 acres remain permanently protected as sanctuary.

That setting is the reason people choose it over larger clubs nearby. Live oaks and preserve rather than manicured palms, the Cocohatchee River along its edge, and a single Arthur Hills course shared among a membership capped at 300.

What Does Collier’s Reserve Cost?

Fourteen homes in Collier’s Reserve sold between January and August 2026 at a median of $2,400,000, from $1,550,000 to $3,700,000. In a community of similar-sized houses, the spread tells you more than the median does.

Thirteen of the fourteen closed below asking, by a median of $285,000, and the median marketing period was 93 days. Across all sales buyers paid 91% of final list price, but that average hides a sharp difference between the bottom of the range and the top.

The same house, at two very different prices

The first two rows are the ones to compare. Their median homes are the same size, 3,851 and 3,845 square feet, and they sold roughly $700,000 apart. Size is not what separates them.

Condition and setting are the likely reasons, and neither appears in the sales records. A house updated recently and backing onto the river or preserve is a different proposition from an original one facing the road, even at the same square footage, and the bottom band’s 82% sold-to-list suggests many of those were priced as if they were the former.

Collier’s Reserve sits between Audubon and Grey Oaks on price, and all three require every owner to join the club. Where it stands apart is scale and setting: fewer homes, a river rather than a bay, and a club boathouse from which members can paddle out to the Gulf.

For a golfer the practical difference is the queue. Both clubs cap golf membership, and Collier’s Reserve gives new homeowners priority on its waitlist, so ask each club where its list stands before choosing between them.

Where is Collier’s Reserve?

Collier’s Reserve sits in North Naples along the Cocohatchee River, less than two miles east of Vanderbilt Beach. The river runs along the community’s edge and is where the club’s Boathouse sits, with a launch for kayaks and canoes that leads out to the Gulf.

The map also shows how much of the site is left undeveloped. About 130 of the 450 acres are permanent sanctuary, and the golf course is routed through preserve rather than around lots, which is why so many homes back onto trees rather than onto each other.

Mercato, Waterside Shops and the US 41 corridor are a few minutes away, and Audubon and Pelican Bay are the nearest comparable communities.

Additional Collier’s Reserve Information

Collier’s Reserve suits a buyer who wants a private club without the scale of a large one: a single course, a membership capped at 300, and a natural, preserve-heavy setting less than two miles from the beach. It also suits a golfer, since new homeowners are given priority for golf membership.

It is the wrong choice if you want to avoid club dues, which points to Pine Ridge Estates, or if you want more than one course, which points to Grey Oaks or Bonita Bay. Buyers who want a gated golf community with optional membership should look at Pelican Marsh.

For two courses rather than one, Quail Creek lies a few minutes east with optional membership and no CDD.

For a larger club a few miles east, Quail West offers 36 holes and a mandatory house membership.

Collier’s Reserve Schools

Collier County Public Schools serves Collier’s Reserve. The schools below are the assignment returned for a representative address in the neighborhood.

Assignment runs by parcel, not by neighborhood. Two houses on the same street can be zoned differently, and the district redraws boundaries from time to time. Check the specific address before relying on it.

Collier’s Reserve shares its school assignment with Audubon and Barefoot Beach. Aubrey Rogers High opened recently enough to have changed zoning in this part of North Naples, and older published lists still show other high schools, so confirm the specific address rather than relying on the community name.

Private school distances are straight-line approximations from the neighborhood, offered for orientation rather than as a recommendation.

The district states that its maps provide general information and that accuracy is not guaranteed, nor should a result be taken as a guarantee of placement. Look up any address on the CCPS attendance zone locator, or call the Department of Student Assignment on (239) 377-0540.

Collier’s Reserve FAQs

Where is Collier’s Reserve?

Collier’s Reserve is in North Naples, Florida, in the 34110 ZIP code, set along the Cocohatchee River less than two miles from Vanderbilt Beach. The clubhouse is at 11711 Collier’s Reserve Drive. Mercato and the shops along US 41 are a few minutes away.

Do you have to join Collier’s Reserve Country Club to buy a home?

Yes. The club states that membership is required of every homeowner, with a social membership the minimum. Golf is a separate category capped at 300 members, and new residents go onto a priority waitlist. How long that list is changes as members join and leave, so ask the club where it stands before you buy.

What do homes cost in Collier’s Reserve?

Fourteen homes sold between January and August 2026 at a median of $2,400,000, with the middle half between $1,925,000 and $3,275,000 and a full range from $1,550,000 to $3,700,000. Median size was 3,864 square feet at $597 per square foot, and buyers paid a median of 91% of final asking price.

Are there condos in Collier’s Reserve?

No. The community is made up entirely of 224 single-family homes, with no condominiums, villas, coach homes or attached townhomes behind the gate. Most lots are oversized and back onto the golf course, a lake, the river or preserve. Buyers who want a condominium in this part of North Naples look elsewhere.

Can you get to the Gulf from Collier’s Reserve by water?

Yes, by paddle. The club’s riverfront Boathouse on the Cocohatchee has a launch for kayaks and canoes, and members can paddle down the river and out to the Gulf. Very few private clubs in Naples offer anything like it, and it suits a buyer who wants the water without the upkeep of a dock and boat.

What is an Audubon Signature Sanctuary?

It is the highest environmental certification from Audubon International, and in 1994 Collier’s Reserve became the first golf community in the world to earn it. About 130 of its 450 acres are permanently protected, and the Arthur Hills course was routed around them. The name has no connection to Audubon Country Club, which is a separate community nearby.
