Questions residents ask
Is Vineyards gated?
Yes — Collier County records list it as a gated community.
What evacuation zone is Vineyards in?
Zone E, per Collier County Emergency Management (checked August 2026). Always confirm your exact address on the county's official lookup before a storm.
Is golf mandatory at The Vineyards, and who developed it?
No — The Vineyards' club is non-equity and open to both residents and non-residents, so a golf or club membership is optional and sold separately, not bundled with a home. It was developed by the Vineyards Development Corporation (the Procacci family) as a large master-planned country-club community of roughly 2,800-plus residences across about 38 enclaves on around 1,400 acres in central Naples. Note the community association is still professionally managed by a developer-affiliated firm (PMP of SW FL) alongside a resident officer board (club and community materials, checked August 2026).
Is Vineyards in a flood zone?
Its mapped flood features break down as 41% zone X500, 37% zone X (outside the high-risk area), 12% zone AE (high-risk area), 11% zone AH (high-risk area). That's county map data — not a flood determination for insurance or lending purposes — so check your parcel on the official lookup.
