Discover River Creek: Estero’s Newest Community Redefining Luxury Living

SUSAN KOSCHALK May 2, 2025

Tucked along East Corkscrew Road in the heart of Estero, River Creek (formerly known as Corkscrew Crossing) is making waves as one of the area’s most exciting new residential developments. Developed by GL Homes, this gated community blends upscale living with environmental stewardship, offering future homeowners a peaceful lifestyle in a thriving location.

A Thoughtfully Planned Community
Set across 395 acres, River Creek will feature 544 thoughtfully designed homes, surrounded by lush landscapes and nature preserves. In fact, over half the land—including 200 acres—has been preserved, maintaining the area's natural charm while allowing residents to enjoy wide open spaces, scenic lakes, and tranquil surroundings.

River Creek is bordered by:

With its prime location, residents will enjoy easy access to nearby amenities, shopping, dining, and beaches, all while tucked away in a serene, gated setting.

A Home for Every Lifestyle
Buyers will find a variety of home styles to suit their needs, from single-family homes and twin villas to townhomes and condominiums. With floorplans ranging from 1,900 to 4,300+ square feet, these homes offer:

  • Up to 5 bedrooms
  • Master suites upstairs or down
  • 2-3 car garages
  • Flexible living spaces perfect for home offices, media rooms, or gyms
  • Luxury finishes come standard, and the price points start in the $600s and up, making River Creek a great value for a premium lifestyle in Estero.

Amenities & Community Features
Residents will enjoy access to a 12,000-square-foot clubhouse (currently under construction, with work beginning in February 2024), a common recreation area, multiple lakes, and sports courts with shaded awnings. Bike racks, walking paths, and lush landscaping will create a community that supports active, outdoor living.

A Growing, Sustainable Neighborhood
River Creek is being built in three phases, and already, 459 homes have been sold. The grand opening was celebrated on August 27, 2023, marking the start of something truly special in Estero. In Phase III, the developer received approval to construct 200 additional single-family homes on 56.25 acres.

In a move that supports sustainability and lower density, Estero’s Village Council approved a zoning change reducing the total number of homes from 724 to 590, while shifting the focus from multi-family units to primarily single-family homes. This change not only helps preserve the area's wetlands and wildlife, but also enhances the long-term value and quality of the community.
