Along the banks of Estero Bay Aquatic Preserve, endless greens, weaving trails and lakes stretch before me. I have always loved this location—the former Raptor Bay Golf Club course was one of my favorite places to tee off. Today, I’ve returned to uncover the secrets that lie within the site’s new resident: Saltleaf Golf Preserve.
The elevated Saltleaf experience begins when golfers venture into the remodeled clubhouse. The course and amenities are part of London Bay Development Group’s master-planned community, Saltleaf on Estero Bay—home to the emerging The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay development, expected to open in 2026.
