Perhaps the finest example of home, lifestyle and environment working in unison to meet those expectations is Fiddler’s Creek, next to Marco Island.
There are already more than 1,700 Fiddler’s Creek condos and family homes constructed in 35 communities across the overall development.

Commitment To The Environment
Wherever you live in the south Naples area, be it Fiddler’s Creek, Marco Island or Hammock Bay, the surrounding natural beauty is a major attraction for residents. But not many residential developments manage to marry the need for modern conveniences and amenities, and a sincere commitment to the environment.
Despite covering an overall area of 4,000 acres, less than 1,500 acres will ever be used in the construction of Fiddler’s Creek condos and homes. The rest has been reserved for green areas, sports and recreational facilities, 3 golf courses, and numerous nature reserves.
Already the Marsh Pointe Nature Reserve borders to south, occupying some 750 acres where bird, animal and plant life can safely live. Fiddler’s Creek conservation policy has also seen almost 5 miles of waterways constructed to enhance the living environment for local fish breeds, many with extended littoral zones to accommodate flora and fauna that depend on the waterside.
