Lake Fairways Country Club, North Fort Myers FL

Recently bought a house in Lake fairways. I have found they have very high Hoa fees. Which would be fine if they if they did some upkeep. The pool has not been heated nor the hot tub. I have been here over a month and still not working. But, Do not pay your 6 months of HOA fees late. The lawns have not been mowed in over three weeks. Starting to look like a jungle. Hated to pay 6 months of HOA fees when in fact probably will not be here that long. I feel that ELS is taking advantage of the people that live here. It just gets worse and worse here. So many amenities but there always broken. The pool is dirty. Very run down. Hard to believe people give them 5 stars. There living in a fantasy world. I wanted to update this review since getting new management for the park there has been a total 180. Things are being updated. They hired a new pool company to take care of the pool and has been very clean. When things get broken we don't have to wait a year to have them fixed. New photos to come.

Seems like a very short course for being an executive course. The greens have more divots and bumps in them than Del Prado. Really not worth $45 per person. I assume they were locals since they had their own custom carts were snobby and slow. Group ahead of us had 6 people playing together and wouldn't let a 3-some play through. No course direction or layout of the course on the score card. Pro shop was closed by the time we were done golfing.

Lived at Lake Fairways for 7 yrs.very hard to get maintenance to fix anything or no what they are doing. As far as management.left hand doesnt know what right is doing, and always with stories or put you off to someone else. U can call & never get return calls.terrible communication with office. Golf course GolfGolf.course

I'm writing this review on behalf of my friend who recently moved out. On October 26th 2022 the guard at the entrance of the property let someone in to see her without her permission. The man they let in broke into my friend's house while she wasn't there. When she arrived home the man was hiding in the spare bedroom, jumped out with a knife and attempted to murder her. She broke away from him screaming. She felt uneasy on the way home and called for a police escort. It's a good thing she did or she would be dead today. Lake fairways took no responsibility for letting that man on property who came very close to taking my friend's life. In fact Brian the property manager and Tracy the sales manager threatened to evict her as if the incident was her fault after they violated property protocol. Tracy straight lied to her about any and everything. It didn't end there. Brian told her she had 3 days to move without any eviction process in place. They continued to harass her until she finally moved. Now they are refusing to refund her security deposit for reasons unknown. They won't answer or return her calls. She has also made several attempts to contact the Home Office ELS Equity lifestyles from January 12th to February 20th leaving several messages, to this day they also refuse to return her calls. They also refuse to do repairs they were responsible for during her stay there. This is a very unsafe place to live, they don't follow or enforce their own rules and guidelines. Because of their incompetence my friend has to live with this traumatizing event for the rest of her life. That's not fair to her.

If I could give minus stars I would. This mobile home park is absolutely the most impossible folks to deal with. They do not answer phones and if you have questions they will avoid any answers. Ever since then we have been trying to remedy this situation and have received nothing but bills and increases in every aspect. Upon attempting to ask questions, office staff become rude, speak over us and do not let us speak. If we had a choice we would steer clear of this organization. They send paperwork with the incorrect lot numbers on. They ask for the lot number, upon reading the number off the paper that was sent to us I am told that information is incorrect. Its the information given from them that is being read back.incompetent staff.nothing but harassment and no explanation of anything they do.all just give us the money.sad
