COUNTRY CLUB LIVING FOR YOUR UNIQUE LIFESTYLE

With only 250 memberships available annually, the Oak Harbor Club offers up elegance and social events, a variety of sport options designed for active seniors in their golden years, combined with innovative living concepts that provide tailored continuum of care with an array of health services. The Club’s intimate size is intentional. It allows for members to get to know each other as they enjoy the many amenities the Club has to offer. The 42,000 sq ft square foot clubhouse is all one story with no stairs, designed for ease of access for all. Inside, the formal dining room hosts dinners for members as well as large events from fundraisers to weddings. The Sunroom presents casual dining and neighbors the cocktail lounge where Friday happy hours are hosted. Enjoy a good puzzle in the distinguished library, take part in the Bridge Club fun inside the card room, or exercise daily in the fitness room. Then, head outside to take advantage of the sunshine at the pool with its relaxing cabana. In addition, the Club’s Wellness Center, overseen by an RN, offers physician visits and lectures as well as coordination of a continuum of care for Club members.

Socially, the club is a place to enjoy gourmet cuisine prepared under the direction of the Club’s award-winning Chef Dean, make new friends, and enjoy live music Thursdays with well known pianist, John Ryan. Plan on taking in a newly released movie or enjoy a good classic during Monday Movie Nights. Maybe test your knowledge during Tuesday trivia inside the lounge or have some fun playing Bingo on one of the two Friday nights it is hosted inside the Harbor Room. For those wishing to stay in, who live in Oak Harbor, home delivery of food is available nightly and 6 days a week for lunch.

Equally important for many is access to good golf. Residents from neighboring communities enjoy this well thought out course immensely as their competitive golf game changes with age. As a result, available at a special introductory rate until June of 2024, is the new Simply Golf membership tier. Designed by Joe Lee, this Executive golf course is gently rolling and winds through the Oak Harbor neighborhoods as well as its waterways offering up beauty and enjoyment at each of its nine holes. This new membership allows for golf as a daily option to the member, as well as the possibility of dining in the clubhouse for lunch during their weekly Tuesday and Saturday lunch experience, ideal after a day out on the course. The next tiered membership is the House Membership. Though no sports are included, all the clubhouse activities and dining options are.

From yoga to jazz concerts, mahjong to the acclaimed Speaker Series, this membership provides full access to the clubhouse itself including the private dining room ideal for a group of up to 16. Both memberships, Simply Golf and House, are open to non-residents and give its members a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle outside the luscious oasis Oak Harbor provides. More importantly, its available at a fraction of the cost of other country clubs throughout the region; value and sophisticated seclusion yet just minutes from everything.

To take full advantage of the additional sports, healthcare options, and more, one would take part in the Associate Membership. It is the most sought after and provides its members with complete access to all the amenities. In addition to golf, pickleball on its grass court, along with bocce and croquet provide seasoned players with more cushion and comfort. These sports offer play at all levels including intra and inner club games. In fact, membership liaison, Lizzie Hallinan informed us their best croquet player presently is a spry 92 and is consistently taking down other club players at each game. Beyond the sports, ala carte access to home maintenance, housekeeping, salon, home health, and more abound including prioritization into Somerset House.

Wrapping up the membership options is the premier Country Club. At this level, the primary member and spouse enjoy all the amenities of the Oak Harbor Club as well as a priority for all sports with no additional fees for themselves or guests. The trusted professionals of the maintenance team make needing to hire outside contractors for small tasks a thing of the past for higher tiered members, and in this level an hour per month is included as well as primary access to the Somerset House and home health services. Also available at this level is hurricane readiness for your home. With so many perks in this package, it cannot all be spelt out here though Lizzie Hallinan encourages prospects to sign up for a tour to visit the Club to see all its advantages.

With so much to offer, now is the time to act and enjoy the many offerings Oak Harbor Club provides to its residents, club members and neighbors alike. The cost-effective tiered memberships operate with monthly billing, taking into account budgeting needs during our glory days of retirement. To learn more or schedule a tour call the membership office at 772-778-2352. Or contact the Club’s real estate office to view the current homes available

Cilantro Lime

Chicken Salad

Sugar, Gluten, Dairy, & Grain Free

Ingredients

1 Rotisserie Chicken – diced

1 medium sweet onion –apx ½ cup diced

1 cup diced organic celery

Directions

Diced fresh cilantro –apx ½ cup fresh (to taste)

1 fresh lime

Sugar Free Mayo – apx 1 cup Salt and Pepper – to taste

1. Remove all the meat from the chicken and cut into cubes for your chicken salad - you can dice or cut the pieces however you like them. I use both dark and light meat from the chicken because I find it much more flavorful. Put the entire cut up chicken into a big mixing bowl.

2. Add the diced onion, celery, and cilantro.

3. Squeeze the lime over top of the chicken and mixture. If it is a large lime try it with only half of the lime first. If it is a smaller lime you will probably want to use both halves.

4. Add the salt and pepper to your taste.

5. Mix in the sugar free mayo (you can use vegan mayo if you like as well)

6. Enjoy with any allergen free crackers or bread of your choosing or try my coconut arrowroot wraps from my website! They are outstanding

More recipes at EatingWithV.com

Tip: Find a mayo without added sugar because you don’t need sugar in your mayonnaise. These amazing salads taste great without the added sugar. Be sure to look at the food labels for added sugars and choose a mayo without those pesky added sugars. The cilantro and lime give this cold salad an amazing taste!

Making Memories Exploring & Glamping

Bonita Springs Lives Up to the Name

With our truck and jeep loaded, we set out around noon, taking the backroads southwest to Bonita Springs for the President’s Day weekend. Excited for some fishing, our son, Charles brought along his buddy, Ryan, for the trip. Having reserved an Airbnb with two apartments within one home, it was perfect lodging to bring an extra person as well as the dog. Better still, this tropically designed home had a boat dock, bonus!

Somewhere in the downtown of Alva, the boys, driving mom’s car took a different route from us. With this being the first time, our son has driven separate from us completely on a trip that moment was stressful, yet we all rolled with it. Turns out they beat us by about 10 minutes but had to get on a very congested I75 during the Friday afternoon rush hour. If given a choice, we prefer to avoid the highways when towing our boat and that we did in the truck. It was interesting to see the massive growth eastbound from the Gulf’s coastline, new roads and communities in every direction!

Once at the house, it was big and airy with a screened in porch and grill. It was right off Bonita Springs Boulevard and close to everything. With a bit of research ahead of time, we knew the Imperial Public Boat Ramp was just a quick six-minute drive, however, by boat back to the dock is was a forty minute tool. With rain forecasted all day that Sunday, which was to be our second day on the water; we had to pivot. As a group, we decided to keep the boat on the trailer for our Friday night and get up early to start at the Estero River by way of the Koreshan State Park. So, after waking the neighbor and taking in damages that remained from the 2022

Hurricane Ian, we then grilled some burgers and played a few card games before retiring to our rooms.

Next day, the traffic was much lighter than upon arrival the afternoon prior. It was a quick drive to the state park, once inhabited by a cult like society who disbanded in the early 1960’s. Their boat ramp was in a great location and in stellar condition, we entered the Estero River for #94 and headed northwest. Many small modular homes on the river abounded and soon bigger ones, lots of family kayaking out on the water from the state park made for a lot of waving that day; it was lovely. Though we didn’t get to see it ourselves, it is said a natural spring really does exist this far south in Florida and can be found at the Shrangrala Hotel. After an hour or so we turned around and passed the boat ramp to explore a bit of the eastern part of the river which became more natural as it meandered through the state park.

Once loaded back up we headed south for 15 minutes to the Imperial Boat Ramp. The boys took the truck back to our weekend rental and us adults enjoyed the slow cruised to our dock. The homes were each individualized and plentiful, many spoil islands made for fun options to let our dog, Seger run and explore. Back at the dock, we loaded up the boys as we headed towards Wiggins’ Pass via the Imperial River our 95th. This pass was such a blast and allowed for fast speeds and big windy waters. As we got closer to the Cocohatchee Bay the water turned a brilliant blue; it was breathtaking.

Instead of heading out to the Gulf, we headed east and found a giant sandbar that allowed us all to get off the boat, run, explore, and take in the sights of the many boats enjoying the waters. The Cocohatchee River was #96 and it is clearly a well-loved river with lots of homes and toys adorning its edges. Though we had wanted to go out to dinner, with all that sunshine, we settled for Jets Pizza delivery. Known for their signature Detroit deep dish style pies, it was delicious and introducing it to Ryan for the first time yielded two thumbs up.

The weather forecast was right, and it rained all day that Sunday which allowed us all to sleep in, read, and play card games. Brief strolls in between down pours made for a relaxing day. Then, we were up early and ready to head back to the Treasure Coats a mere 3.5 hours northeast. Happy roaming ya’ll!
