Firefly’s 18-hole championship course designed by acclaimed golf course architect Andrew Green is slated to open for member play in fall 2026. Best known for his masterful restorations of East Lake, Oak Hill, Scioto, and Interlachen, Firefly marks Green’s first original golf course design.
Firefly will also feature a nine-hole short course, opening late this summer, and an array of luxury amenities, including a clubhouse, fitness center, family club, separate adult and family pools, a bowling alley, golf simulators, and a racquet club with tennis and indoor pickleball courts. The Golf Shop and food and beverage venues at the courses’ Fieldhouse and Outpost are anticipated for completion in early 2027.
“Firefly will be defined by its culture and elevated member environment, and with his experience at top leading clubs, Aaron will bring hands‑on leadership, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence that members will see every day,” said Todd Huizinga, General Manager, Firefly.
Homesites range from $575,000 to over $1,675,000. Construction of homes at Firefly should start in 2027, and the community will have around 400 homes once complete. For more information and to learn more about the community’s offerings, please visit www.fireflyliving.com.
