Rivergrass Village · Naples, Florida

A new village is taking shape in eastern Naples

Rivergrass Village is an approved master planned community along Oil Well Road, with up to 2,500 homes, lakes, open space and a planned Village Center. Two builders are bringing very different lifestyles to it. Here is what is approved, what has been announced, and what is still to come.

The master community

Rivergrass Village is bigger than any single builder

Rivergrass Village is one of the major new communities shaping eastern Collier County. Planned on both sides of Oil Well Road, east of DeSoto Boulevard, the approved village includes up to 2,500 homes, neighborhood commercial space, civic uses, lakes, open space and a Village Center.

Today, buyers have two very different residential stories to follow inside it. Rivergrass by Lennar is marketed around trails, racquet courts, pools and an event lawn. Esplanade at Rivergrass by Taylor Morrison is planned around an 18 hole championship level golf course with a resort and club lifestyle. Both sit inside the same master planned village, and understanding that structure is the key to comparing them properly.

Rivergrass is also part of the broader Town of Big Cypress framework in eastern Collier County, which connects Rivergrass with Longwater, Bellmar, protected conservation land and future services across the region. That larger vision is genuinely exciting, and it is also the part of the story that deserves the most careful reading, because timing is not guaranteed.

Two residential components inside Rivergrass Village

Both neighborhoods below sit within the larger Rivergrass Village master community. They are not competing developments. They are different residential experiences inside the same approved village plan, which is exactly why comparing them side by side matters so much.

Rivergrass by Lennar

Lennar markets Rivergrass as a trails and courts community built around active outdoor living. Four product collections are planned, from villas and townhomes through to larger single family designs, with a Racquets Pavilion, resort style pool, splash park, lap pool, lounge areas and an event lawn with a stage.

Side by side

Which Rivergrass fits the way you actually live

The honest answer is that they suit different buyers. If your weekends look like pickleball, a lap swim and a food truck night on the event lawn, Lennar is likely the better fit. If they look like an early tee time, lunch at the club and a spa appointment, Esplanade is built for that.

Cost structures differ too. A golf and club community carries fees that a trails and courts community does not. Neither builder has published its full fee schedule for Rivergrass yet, which is precisely why it is worth comparing them with someone who reads these documents for a living.

Homes and floor plans

What is planned, plan by plan

Every home collection the two builders publish today, in one place. Choose a collection to filter the list. Square footage comes from builder material. Plan level pricing is not consistently published yet, so individual prices are shown as coming soon rather than estimated.

Plan data comes from current Lennar and Taylor Morrison community pages. The only public Lennar price for Rivergrass today is the community wide from the $300s. Taylor Morrison publishes Esplanade single family homes from the $400s to more than $1 million and condominiums from the low $400s. Plan availability, specifications and pricing are subject to change without notice.

Amenities and lifestyle

More than one way to live at Rivergrass

Amenities belong to different layers of Rivergrass, and keeping them separate is important. Some are part of what Lennar plans. Some belong to Esplanade. Some sit in the approved village plan or the wider Town of Big Cypress vision and will arrive over time. Filter by layer to see exactly who is planning what.

A note on timing

Rivergrass is being built in phases. Everything marked planned is announced by a builder or shown on the approved plan, and is not open today. Delivery dates, features and the final amenity mix can change. Ask for the current construction and delivery schedule before you rely on any amenity in a buying decision. Photographs on this page are conceptual lifestyle images and do not show completed Rivergrass facilities.

Golf lifestyle

Golf arrives at Rivergrass through Esplanade

Rivergrass Village itself is not a golf community. Golf comes to the village through Esplanade at Rivergrass, where Taylor Morrison plans an 18 hole championship level course with a pro shop, an on course snack shack and a club lifestyle built around dining, wellness and social programming.

For a golfer, that makes Rivergrass unusually flexible. You can buy into the golf and club experience at Esplanade, or live elsewhere in the village and enjoy a quieter trails and courts lifestyle a short drive from the course. The right choice depends on how often you actually play and how you feel about club commitments.

Before you budget for golf: membership structure, initiation or capital contribution, annual dues and any dining minimums have not been published for Esplanade at Rivergrass. Nothing on this page should be read as a golf cost estimate. Ask for the current fee sheet in writing.

The Rivergrass Village master plan

Approved today, delivered over time

Rivergrass Village is an approved Stewardship Receiving Area in eastern Collier County under the Rural Lands Stewardship Area framework. The approved plan spans roughly 998 acres on both sides of Oil Well Road, east of DeSoto Boulevard.

Inside that boundary the plan sets out residential neighborhoods, lakes, amenity areas, a golf and club area and a Village Center of roughly 20.9 acres. The 2025 county summary lists 100,000 square feet of commercial development and 25,000 square feet of civic and governmental space.

Those elements are approved, not open. Timing and the eventual mix of shops, services and civic uses have not been announced. The wider Town of Big Cypress framework connects Rivergrass with Longwater, Bellmar, parks, trails and thousands of acres of protected conservation land, and it describes a longer term live, work and play vision for eastern Collier County. It is a genuinely ambitious plan, and it will unfold over years rather than months.

Buying new construction

Talk to Magaly before your first builder registration

Builder websites and sales centers exist to sell that builder's product, and the onsite team represents the builder. That is normal and it is not a criticism. It simply means the comparison work across builders, plans, homesites and total cost is yours to do, or yours to delegate.

Builder policies on working with an outside agent, including whether and when your agent must be registered, vary by builder and can change. Compensation and representation terms are set out in the written agreements a transaction requires. Ask about registration requirements before your first sales center visit or online registration, because those rules are much easier to work with at the start.

What Magaly helps you compare

  • Builders and floor plans
  • Homesites and premiums
  • Upgrades and design selections
  • Incentives and lender offers
  • Association, club and district fees
  • Construction timing and resale implications

Questions worth asking early

  • What is the total cost, not the base priceHomesite premium, options, closing costs, taxes, insurance, dues, club fees and district assessments.
  • Can I see the written fee sheetAssociation documents, master association documents and the special district disclosure for the homesite.
  • How do deposits and timing workDeposit schedule, cancellation provisions, construction milestones and the expected completion window.
  • Can I have independent inspectionsAt appropriate construction stages and at final walkthrough, subject to builder policy and contract rights.

Nothing on this page is legal, tax, insurance or financial advice, and no promise is made about compensation or representation terms. Those are settled in the written agreements for your transaction. Please also obtain current homeowners and flood insurance guidance for the specific home before you finalize a budget.

Market status

What about Rivergrass resales

Rivergrass Village is still in its early new construction phase, so traditional resale inventory is limited. As completed homes begin to close, resale opportunities will start to appear. If you are weighing a new builder release against a future resale, Magaly can compare price, upgrades, homesite, fees, timing and contract terms.

Meet Magaly Moreno

A local Naples resource, on your side of the table

Magaly Moreno is a REALTOR with Premiere Plus Realty in Naples, Florida. She built this website because buyers researching Rivergrass Village kept running into the same problem: builder pages tell you about one neighborhood, and nobody explains the village that contains them.

Her approach is straightforward. Separate what is confirmed from what is announced and from what is still conceptual. Put the two Rivergrass communities side by side on the things that actually drive cost and daily life. Then help you decide, with the documents in front of you rather than a brochure.

Whether you are relocating to Naples, buying a seasonal home or planning several years ahead, Magaly can walk you through builders, floor plans, homesites, upgrades, fees, timing and the resale picture as Rivergrass develops.

Frequently asked questions

Rivergrass Village, answered plainly

The questions buyers ask most often, answered with what is actually published today rather than with guesses.

What is Rivergrass Village?

Rivergrass Village is an approved master planned village in eastern Collier County, Florida, along Oil Well Road east of DeSoto Boulevard. County planning material allows up to 2,500 dwelling units plus 100,000 square feet of commercial space and 25,000 square feet of civic and governmental uses, across a master plan of roughly 998 acres.

Is Esplanade at Rivergrass the same as Rivergrass Village?

No. Esplanade at Rivergrass is a Taylor Morrison golf and resort neighborhood inside the larger Rivergrass Village. Lennar is separately developing its Rivergrass collections in the same village. Rivergrass Village is the master community that contains both, which is why this website treats it as the main subject rather than as a footnote to either builder.

Who is building homes in Rivergrass?

Current official Town of Big Cypress material identifies Lennar and Taylor Morrison as the residential builders taking shape in Rivergrass Village. Lennar markets Rivergrass, and Taylor Morrison markets Esplanade at Rivergrass. Other builders are active elsewhere in the wider Town of Big Cypress, but that does not make their projects Rivergrass neighborhoods.

When will Rivergrass open?

Lennar currently markets Rivergrass for fall 2026. Taylor Morrison currently markets Esplanade at Rivergrass for early 2027. Builder timing can change, so ask for the current release schedule before you make plans around a date.

How much do homes cost in Rivergrass?

Lennar currently advertises Rivergrass from the $300s. Taylor Morrison currently advertises Esplanade at Rivergrass single family homes from the $400s to more than $1 million, and condominiums from the low $400s.

Those are the only published figures today. Individual plan prices, homesite premiums and incentives are still shown as coming soon and can change. You will not find invented plan prices anywhere on this website.

Does Rivergrass have golf?

Golf comes to Rivergrass through Esplanade at Rivergrass, which is planned around an 18 hole championship level golf course. Lennar markets its Rivergrass community primarily as a trails and courts lifestyle rather than a golf community.

Membership structure, initiation or capital contribution, annual dues and any dining minimums have not been published for Esplanade at Rivergrass. Please request the current fee sheet before budgeting.

What amenities are planned at Rivergrass?

Amenities vary by neighborhood. Lennar markets a Racquets Pavilion, tennis, pickleball, a resort style pool, a splash park, a lap pool, lounge areas and an event lawn with a stage. Taylor Morrison markets golf, a Culinary Center, a Wellness Center, fitness, spa services, tennis, pickleball, bocce, a resort style pool and spa, cabanas, a Bahama Bar, a Bark Park, fireside seating and walking trails.

The approved village plan also includes a Village Center with commercial and civic space. None of these amenities are open today, and delivery is expected in phases.

Are there HOA, club or special district fees at Rivergrass?

A Rivergrass Master Property Owners Association exists as an active Florida not for profit corporation, and the wider area sits within the Big Cypress Stewardship District, an independent special district created by a Florida special act. The district can levy assessments and issue bonds to fund public infrastructure and services.

Home level association dues, club fees and district assessment amounts have not been published for Rivergrass. Please ask for the builder disclosure and the assessment information specific to the homesite, and ask for association dues and district assessments separately. This website deliberately publishes no fee figures, because the honest answer today is that they are not public.

What schools serve Rivergrass?

Corkscrew Elementary School and Corkscrew Middle School are nearby Collier County public schools on Oil Well Road. Rivergrass is new and eastern Collier County is growing quickly, so attendance boundaries can change. Always verify the assigned school for a specific address with Collier County Public Schools before you buy. Nearby is geography. Assigned is a separate question.

Are Rivergrass resale homes available?

Not yet in any meaningful volume. Rivergrass is still in its early new construction phase, so a mature resale market has not developed. Third party portals may show nearby 34120 listings under broad Rivergrass or Esplanade search labels, and those are not necessarily Rivergrass homes.

As completed homes begin to close, genuine resale opportunities will appear, and Magaly can compare a resale against a new builder release on price, upgrades, homesite, fees and timing.

Can I use my own real estate agent to buy new construction at Rivergrass?

Builder representation and registration procedures vary by builder and can change, and the onsite sales team represents the builder. Contact Magaly before your first sales center visit or online builder registration so the current rules, registration requirements and representation options can be reviewed together.

Compensation and representation terms are set out in the written agreements a transaction requires. This website does not promise that representation is free, because that is not a promise anyone can responsibly make in advance.

Is this the official Rivergrass Village website?

No. rivergrassnaplesflorida.com is an independent real estate information website operated for the real estate services of Magaly Moreno, REALTOR with Premiere Plus Realty. It is not the official website of Rivergrass Village, Collier Enterprises, Lennar, Taylor Morrison, Esplanade at Rivergrass, the Rivergrass Master Property Owners Association, the Big Cypress Stewardship District, any homeowners association or any government agency, and no affiliation, sponsorship or endorsement is implied.
