Bay Colony is a separately walled 200-acre enclave at the north end of Pelican Bay, with its own beach club, tennis club, and optional von Hagge golf club inside Pelican Marsh.
The Bay Colony Community Association official site describes approximately 200 acres inside Pelican Bay, 11 luxury condominium communities (6 beachfront, 5 bay/preserve), and five residential neighborhoods (villas and estate homes), plus a staffed sentry gate. Residents have membership privileges at the Bay Colony Beach Club (Gulf dining, pool, Sunset Terrace, Chickee Bar) and six hydro-clay courts at the Tennis Club. Golf is a separate equity opportunity at Bay Colony Golf Club — official golf site: Robert von Hagge 18 (1996) on 120 acres inside Pelican Marsh at 9740 Bent Grass Bend, renovated 2014; not Tom Fazio (that attribution appears only on some brokerage blogs). Bay Colony owners also remain in the Pelican Bay Foundation layer. This is a distinct community_slug from pelican-bay and from the Estero Bay Ritz residences.
