Misty Creek Real Estate

The Preserve at Misty Creek Country Club, Sarasota Florida

Misty Creek

The Misty Creek complex is located in a 780-acre property in Sarasota City and is short drive away from Interstate 75. The meticulous planning and development of the enclave resulted in a wondrous combination of a 350-acre golf links and a residential community composed of 302 single-family homes. Oak forests, lakes, and wetlands were so deftly incorporated into this layout that Misty Creek too has justifiably been called as The Preserve.

The lush environment created by the real estate development has attracted different wildlife species like bald eagles, sandhill cranes, and red-tailed hawks, along with alligators, wild boar, bobcats and deer. Stocked fish likewise thrive in the Misty Creek lakes providing added delight to the community’s residents. This environmental excellence has been recognized by the environmental concern Audubon International, which designated Misty Creek as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary.

The stunning views of the Misty Creek golf course can be best appreciated at the community’s sprawling clubhouse which provides outstanding amenities. Among these is the Eagle Lounge which serves breakfast and lunch daily. The clubhouse’s main dining room is likewise open every day, with Friday nights reserved for fine and casual dining. Delightful sandwiches, soup and beverages are available at a snack bar which is also open seven days a week from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Near the clubhouse are four tennis courts accessible to Misty Creek residents for free. Training lessons can be arranged with a tennis pro who has programs tailor-fit for specific age groups and playing skills.
