Barefoot Boat Club is a 108-unit boat storage condominium at 5025 Bonita Beach Rd, beside Barefoot Beach but outside the Lely Barefoot Beach planned community, in unincorporated Collier County, Florida, with a Bonita Springs mailing address. Its 108 units are 90 dry storage racks inside one building and 18 wet slips on Little Hickory Bay. None of them is a place to live.
A deeded boat unit is real property under Florida’s condominium act. It carries a county tax bill, an association, a recorded deed and, for the wet slips, a lease from the State of Florida for the bay bottom. It does not carry a mailbox, a kitchen or a school zone. The words real estate uses everywhere, such as home, listing and homestead, have to be read carefully here: wherever this page says “home” for a Boat Club unit, it means a deeded dry rack or wet slip.
We wrote this page the way we would brief a boater we were representing. Every fact carries a source, every conflict between sources is printed with both sides, and every figure that comes from the Southwest Florida MLS is taken from the boat dock listings pulled October 3, 2026 and printed as a count or an actual sale, never an estimate.
The recorded declaration creates one Dry Storage Building, about 155 feet by 115 feet, holding 90 Dry Storage Units, plus docks holding 18 Wet Slip Units. 90 plus 18 is 108, and the county’s property roll lists exactly 108 parcels at the address, all coded as condominium units. The roll labels the dry units DS-1 through DS-90 and the wet slips WS-7 through WS-24. It is not 108 slips: only 18 of the 108 units are slips. The source is the recorded Declaration of Condominium, OR 2197 PG 88, read by our research team on October 1, 2026.
Neither city limits includes the Boat Club. The property is in unincorporated Collier County, the postal city on the roll is Bonita Springs with ZIP 34134, and the City of Bonita Springs ends at the Lee and Collier county line that runs along Bonita Beach Road, according to Census TIGERweb boundary geometry that we queried. Fire and rescue come from the North Collier Fire Control and Rescue District, law enforcement from the Collier County Sheriff, and the land is in Collier County Commission District 2. For the wider area, read our Bonita Springs page and our Collier County page.
The Boat Club sits on the south side of Bonita Beach Road at the fixed bridge over Little Hickory Bay. It fronts Bonita Beach Road, not the gated Barefoot Beach Boulevard, and the county’s address point sits at 26.3298 north, 81.8362 west. All 108 units share one land polygon. That polygon measures 2.14 acres on the county’s parcel layer, and the zoning layer draws the same parcel as 2.5 acres. We print both and do not choose, because the two layers use different boundaries. By road, the Barefoot Beach Club condominium building at 260 Barefoot Beach Blvd is about 1.3 miles and 4 minutes away, an estimate from OpenStreetMap routing without traffic.
Three other names sit close to this one. Barefoot Beach Club is a separate community of 348 residential condominium units in twelve buildings, eight on the Gulf side of the boulevard and four east of it, and we found no legal relationship between it and the Boat Club in the public record. The Club at Barefoot Beach, Inc. is a separate private beach and tennis club inside the gates. Hickory Bay Boat Club appears on the county roll as a different condominium with 109 parcels south of Bonita Beach Road; we did not research it and nothing here describes it.

If you’re searching for the best realtor for Barefoot Boat Club in Barefoot Beach, Bonita Springs, whether you’re ready to sell your Barefoot Boat Club home or buy your next one, McGreevy and Comisar is the team that delivers. We lead Domain Realty Group, the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012, Top 1% Nationally since 2008, with over $2.5 billion sold as a team and $900 million in personal sales between Jesse and Marc. A Barefoot Boat Club “home” is a deeded boat storage unit, a dry rack or a wet slip, and we treat it that way. If you are weighing agents, our comparison of the best real estate agents in Barefoot Beach shows how we work.
Recent Barefoot Boat Club track record (last 12 months): Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings, pulled October 3, 2026, show 1 Barefoot Boat Club closing in the last 12 months: a wet slip that sold for $90,000 on May 7, 2026, against a final list price of $95,000, after 16 days on market. One sale gives no median or ratio. Over 60 months the MLS shows 7 closings, 2 wet slips and 5 dry racks, the highest a wet slip at $160,000 on May 21, 2024. McGreevy and Comisar closed no sale at Barefoot Boat Club through the Southwest Florida MLS in those 60 months, on either the listing or the buying side, so our team’s share is 0 of 7. From public records: the Collier County Property Appraiser’s file shows 3 county-qualified Boat Club sales since October 2025, between $45,000 and $155,000; the county and the MLS count differently, because the MLS misses off-market transfers. We tracked every one of them, and every Boat Club sale in the county’s qualified record since 1996, for this page.

A Barefoot Boat Club owner gets a deeded place to keep a boat close to the Gulf: either a dry storage rack in a 90-unit building or one of 18 wet slips on Little Hickory Bay, plus a clubhouse, a pool and a boat ramp shared with the other owners. The trade is a recorded set of rules, an association whose assessments are not published, and a State lease under the wet slips.
A Boat Club unit suits an owner at Barefoot Beach or Bonita Beach whose property has no private dock, or a boater from farther inland, who wants a deeded boat space minutes from open water instead of a monthly marina contract. It also suits an owner who wants the boat stored indoors and launched by staff, because the club’s own site markets valet boating. The club says it is open from 8 AM to 5 PM every day, so it works best for people who plan trips inside those hours.
Look harder if the boat needs shore power, a lift, water or pump-out at the berth, because none of that appears in the sources we read. Look harder if the boat stands taller than about 10 feet above the waterline, because the route north runs under a fixed bridge charted at 12.8 feet, and the Big Hickory Pass bridge beyond it is charted at 10 feet. Look harder if you plan to live aboard, rent the space to others or run charters, because the rules on those uses are not published. And look harder if you need a mortgage: we did not research lender appetite for a non-residential condominium unit, and a lender will have its own view.
The Barefoot Boat Club website calls itself “THE PREMIER BOAT CONDO MARINA in SW Florida” and describes 90 indoor storage racks, which it calls “rackominiums,” and 18 wet boat slips, which it calls “dockominiums,” available for sale or rent. Its services page lists a swimming pool, a clubhouse, a public self-service gas dock and a 24-hour security system. Our researchers also read the phrases “90 Inside Dry Slips,” valet boating and an event center on the site. No fee is published there. We have not verified current fuel availability, pricing or security-system details.
Ask first for the full recorded set: the declaration and its four amendments, the articles and bylaws, and the current rules. Ask second for the current annual budget and financial statement, which is where assessments and reserves would appear. Ask third for an estoppel certificate, which states what the unit owes and whether a transfer fee, approval or right of first refusal applies. Under Florida Statute 718.503, a purchaser under contract is entitled to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules and the annual financial statement and budget at the seller’s expense. The estoppel certificate is a separate request to the association under Florida Statute 718.116.

The Collier County Property Appraiser’s recorded-sales file shows 11 county-qualified Barefoot Boat Club sales in the 36 months ending October 1, 2026, with a median of $45,000, a low of $35,000 and a high of $170,000. Dry racks and wet slips trade in very different ranges, so that single median hides two separate markets.
Data updated: October 2026
These figures come from the Collier County Property Appraiser public data files dated August 29 and 31, 2026. The newest recorded sale anywhere in the county file is August 24, 2026, so later sales are not in it. The file counts only improved sales over $1,000 that the county coded as qualified. This is a county record, not the Southwest Florida MLS. Each window below runs from the first of the month, counted back from October 1, 2026.
Window | Sales | Median | Low | High | Total volume |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
12 months (since October 2025) | 3 | $90,000 | $45,000 | $155,000 | $290,000 |
24 months | 6 | $95,000 | $42,500 | $170,000 | $602,500 |
36 months (first window with 10 or more sales) | 11 | $45,000 | $35,000 | $170,000 | $834,500 |
60 months | 17 | $42,500 | $20,000 | $170,000 | $1,030,900 |
All recorded history since June 1996 | 253 | $26,000 | $12,000 | $170,000 | $9,257,700 |
We lead with the 36-month window because it is the shortest one with 10 or more sales. The shorter windows have a higher median because wet slips make up two of the three sales in the last 12 months and four of the six in the last 24. The record high in the file is $170,000, paid for wet slip WS-21 on September 22, 2025 (OR 6524 PG 3317).
Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings, pulled October 3, 2026, show 7 Boat Club closings in the 60 months to that date: 1 in the last 12 months, 2 in 24 and 4 in 36. The 2 wet slips sold for $90,000 on May 7, 2026 (final list price $95,000, 16 days on market) and $160,000 on May 21, 2024 (final list price $150,000, 62 days). The 5 dry racks sold from $20,000 to $42,500, after 10 to 154 days on market. That is too few for a median or a ratio, so we print the sales themselves. On October 3, 2026 there were 7 active listings, 2 wet slips at $100,000 and $159,000 and 5 dry racks from $43,000 to $60,000, and none under contract. Against 1 closing in 12 months that is an indicative 84 months of supply. County-qualified sales are a public record and cover only the deeds the county accepted; the MLS adds listings that never closed and the asking price of units now for sale, so the two sources count differently.
The county roll carries no base area for these units, so no price per square foot can be computed and this page does not show one. The list below is complete for the window, from the county file.
Date | Price | Unit | Type | OR book and page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
2021-10-28 | $30,000 | DS-51 | Dry rack | 6190/1400 |
2021-11-16 | $35,000 | DS-10 | Dry rack | 6045/3571 |
2021-11-22 | $37,500 | DS-47 | Dry rack | 6047/2100 |

2025-09-22 | $170,000 | WS-21 | Wet slip | 6524/3317 |
2025-12-31 | $155,000 | WS-22 | Wet slip | 6541/2815 |
2026-04-28 | $45,000 | DS-56 | Dry rack | 6585/2158 |
2026-05-07 | $90,000 | WS-8 | Wet slip | 6587/904 |
The county file has no qualified Boat Club sale between February 2022 and February 2024, a span that includes Hurricane Ian in September 2022. Why the gap exists is not stated in the file.
Read separately, the two unit types are far apart. In the 36-month window, the 7 dry-rack sales have a median of $45,000 and run from $35,000 to $65,000. The 4 wet-slip sales run from $90,000 to $170,000, and with only four sales the median is the average of the middle two, $100,000 and $155,000, which is $127,500. Across 60 months the 13 dry-rack sales have a median of $39,900, and the six sales in late 2021 and early 2022 had a median of $34,500 against $45,000 for the seven dry-rack sales since February 2024. Those are small samples, and we draw no trend from them.
The county’s own 2026 preliminary values follow the same split: $34,179, $35,179 and $36,179 for the three tiers of 30 dry units each, and $80,592 for each wet slip. Our research reads the three dry tiers as three rack levels, which is an inference; the roll does not say.
Two further recorded deeds over $100,000 in the same 60 months were not coded as qualified: $1,415,000 for WS-23 on May 18, 2024 (OR 6370 PG 257) and $110,000 for WS-11 on June 21, 2024 (OR 6374 PG 2670). In this file the county’s qualified flag is thin in 2022 and 2023, with one qualified sale in 2022 and none in 2023, against six in 2024; 2022 and 2024 were the years of major storm damage on this coast. That the flag reflects storm-changed property is our inference; the file does not carry the reason. We keep these deeds out of every median above and do not average them with qualified sales. We also cannot say what the $1,415,000 deed conveyed: it is more than eight times the highest qualified wet-slip price, so it should not be read as the price of one slip.
The county-qualified record gives a low turnover rate. Three sales in the last 12 months on 108 units is 2.78 percent a year. Eleven sales over 36 months is 3.40 percent a year, and 17 over 60 months is 3.15 percent a year. By comparison, the file shows 102 sales recorded in 1996 alone, which was the developer’s sell-out year. The homestead share is 0 of 108, which tells us nothing about residency because no unit is a residence.
The table compares the Boat Club with three neighboring communities on the yardsticks we have for all four. The comparison is of records, not of products: a boat storage unit and a residential condominium or a bay-front house answer different needs. Each row uses its own county file and its own 60-month window.
Community | Parcels | Form of ownership | Year built on roll | Flood zones present | Lease minimum, as recorded | County-qualified sales, 60 months | Median 2026 preliminary just value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Barefoot Boat Club | 108 | Condominium (boat storage) | Not on roll; declaration 1996 | AE 10; bay-side VE 12 | Not published | 17 sales, median $42,500 | $35,179 |
348 | Condominium (four associations) | 1991 to 1995 | AE 10 to 11; VE 12 to 16 on Gulf side | 30 days, three leases a year | 32 sales, median $1,862,500 | $1,582,030 | |
112 (100 improved) | Property owners association | 1990 to 2025 | AE 10 to 11; one VE sliver | 60 days, three a year | 29 sales, median $3,850,000 | $2,603,340 | |
35 (27 improved) | Two homeowners associations | 1990 to 2024 | AE 10 | 30 days at Bayside, three a year; not confirmed for the 23-door Bayfront Gardens association | 6 sales, range $3,026,000 to $6,650,000 | $3,108,994 |
The lease minimums for the three neighbors come from recorded declarations and rules read by our research team. The Boat Club’s rules are not published, which is why its cell says so. The Boat Club’s median just value is 2.2 percent of the Barefoot Beach Club median and 1.4 percent of the Southport median: $35,179 divided by $1,582,030 is 0.0222, and $35,179 divided by $2,603,340 is 0.0135.

Barefoot Boat Club began as a 1990 Collier County rezoning to Community Facility on a roughly two-acre bay-front parcel, became a condominium when its declaration was recorded on June 20, 1996 at OR 2197 PG 88, and began selling units a week later. Four recorded amendments followed between 1998 and 2007. Its association was filed with the State on March 12, 1996.
Data updated: October 2026
Collier County zoned the parcel CF, Community Facility, by Ordinance 90-55 on June 19, 1990, under rezone petition R-89-22. The land is an unplatted metes-and-bounds tract in the northeast quarter of Section 6, Township 48 South, Range 25 East, with adjoining submerged land in Little Hickory Bay, according to the recorded declaration. The recorded documents do not say whether the parcel lies inside the Lely Barefoot Beach planned unit development boundary. We read the county’s zoning layer and found CF zoning with no planned unit development. We follow the county layer and say so, because the county’s map is the zoning authority.
The Declaration of Condominium runs 79 pages. Each amendment below was read by our research team in the Collier County Clerk’s official records on October 1, 2026.
Instrument | Recorded | Official records | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
Declaration of Condominium | June 20, 1996 | OR 2197 PG 88 | Creates the dry storage building, the docks, the 108 units and the common elements |
January 29, 1998 | OR 2384 PG 1110 | Amends the declaration; we do not summarize its subject here, so read the instrument | |
August 18, 2000 | OR 2712 PG 1700 | States that the condominium land excludes the submerged lands and the leasehold | |
May 30, 2001 | OR 2833 PG 1814 | Amends the bylaws to provide for five directors | |
February 7, 2007 | OR 4180 PG 291 | Section 20 on transfer of units: written notice to the board before a sale, gift or lease of a slip |
The first county-recorded sales in the file are dated June 27, 1996, a week after the declaration was recorded: 73 that day, including 45 dry units at $22,000 each and 22 at $24,500 each. The file shows 102 qualified sales in 1996 alone, out of 253 across all history, which is the pattern of a developer selling out a new project. The developer was a Florida development company; we do not name individuals from recorded documents.
Barefoot Boat Club has 108 deeded units: 90 Dry Storage Units numbered DS-1 to DS-90 inside one building about 155 feet by 115 feet, and 18 Wet Slip Units numbered WS-7 to WS-24 on docks over Little Hickory Bay. The shared common elements are a clubhouse of about 2,000 square feet, a swimming pool, a boat ramp and six temporary wet slips, according to the declaration.
Data updated: October 2026
The table shows each unit group with the county’s 2026 preliminary just value and the tax that value would produce at the preliminary millage of 9.4020 mills. These are illustrations for a non-homestead owner before exemptions and non-ad valorem charges, not the county’s actual bills.
Unit group | Units | County 2026 preliminary just value each | Tax at 9.4020 mills |
|---|---|---|---|
Dry racks, lower value tier | 30 | $34,179 | $321.35 |
Dry racks, middle value tier | 30 | $35,179 | $330.75 |
Dry racks, higher value tier | 30 | $36,179 | $340.15 |
Wet slips | 18 | $80,592 | $757.73 |
All 108 units | 108 | $4,616,766 combined | Not applicable |
The county’s own tax bills run from $278 to $758 a unit, with a median of $321, so the illustration at the median value of $35,179, which is $330.75, sits about $9 above the county’s median bill of $321. The file does not say why the two differ.
The roll numbers the wet slips WS-7 to WS-24, which is 18, and WS-1 to WS-6 do not appear as separate parcels. The declaration lists six temporary wet slips as common elements. We did not confirm that those six are the numbers missing from the roll, so that match is an inference. If it holds, the dock has up to 24 wet positions, 18 of them deeded units and six shared.
The dry storage building is about 155 feet by 115 feet. The club’s website describes indoor storage racks and valet boating. Rack height, weight limit, maximum boat length and beam, forklift or lift procedure and the retrieval notice required are not published in anything we read, so they are questions for the association. Our research reads the three dry-unit value tiers as three rack levels, which is an inference from the roll’s $1,000 steps; the roll does not state it.
The declaration names a clubhouse, a swimming pool, a boat ramp and six temporary wet slips as common elements. The county roll carries no year built, no base area and no building count for these parcels, so this page cannot show a building age or a price per square foot. The Boat Club also has no homestead exemptions on the roll, 0 of 108, as expected for units no one lives in.

The 18 Barefoot Boat Club wet slips sit over Little Hickory Bay bottom that belongs to the State of Florida and is held under a lease from the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund, not owned outright. The 2000 amendment says the condominium land excludes the submerged lands and the leasehold, so a slip owner owns the unit and shares the lease.
Three later lease instruments are recorded against the Boat Club: October 10, 2011 at OR 4725 PG 3390, December 8, 2020 at OR 5856 PG 1788, and December 4, 2025 at OR 6532 PG 2034. Our research read the index rows for those instruments and not their text. The lease term, annual fee and renewal conditions are therefore not published in the sources we read. The newest instrument is under a year old, which suggests the lease was renewed or amended in December 2025; that is an inference, and the instrument would settle it.
Section 253.77, Florida Statutes, says a person may not begin any excavation, construction or other activity involving the use of sovereign or other lands of the state held by the Board of Trustees until the person has received the required lease, license, easement or other consent. Chapter 18-21 of the Florida Administrative Code is the State’s rule chapter for sovereignty submerged lands. A buyer cannot read either as a statement about this lease’s terms; they describe the rule that makes a lease necessary.
Ask the association for the current lease and every amendment, the date it ends, the conditions for renewal, who pays the annual lease charge and how it is allocated across the 18 slips, and whether a sale of a slip needs the State’s consent. Ask what the association’s plan is if renewal were refused. These are questions, and the answers belong in the estoppel certificate and the association’s financial statement.
A buyer’s lender, insurer and attorney will each want to know what is owned and what is leased. The four wet-slip sales since June 2025, from $90,000 to $170,000, all exceed the highest dry-rack sale in the county’s 60-month record, which is $65,000, so every recorded wet-slip price in the window sits above every recorded dry-rack price. We have no data to say how the lease affects any price.
Barefoot Boat Club has a clubhouse of about 2,000 square feet, a swimming pool, a boat ramp, dry storage in one building, wet slips on the bay, and, according to its own website, a public self-service gas dock and a 24-hour security system. We found no Barefoot Beach amenity attached to a unit in the recorded documents. Details we could not confirm are listed below.
The declaration names the clubhouse, pool, boat ramp and six temporary wet slips as common elements. The club’s website adds a pool with bay views, an event center, valet boating and a public gas dock, and gives its hours as 8 AM to 5 PM every day. The phone number our researchers found on the event page is (239) 498-6112. Whether the pool and clubhouse are open to guests of owners, and for what fees, is not published.
The Boat Club is not a member of the Barefoot Beach Master Association, which owns the gated boulevard and staffs the gate, so a Boat Club unit does not by itself bring boulevard or gate rights that we could find. Read our Barefoot Beach community page for what the Master Association and the residential associations provide to their own members.
The Club at Barefoot Beach, Inc. is a separate private member-owned beach and tennis club on Shell Drive. By its own site, its membership capacity is 425 and its waitlist applications were paused from June 1, 2026. Membership is not conveyed with any deed, including a Boat Club unit. For a public ramp and fuel nearby, Cocohatchee River Park has four launch lanes and Gulf access through Wiggins Pass, and sells fuel by credit card daily from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., according to Collier County Parks.
We do not list slip length, beam or water depth, rack height or weight limits, lift capacity, shore power, water or pump-out service, or fuel prices, because none is published in the documents and pages we read. A boat owner should ask for each before an offer, in writing.
Barefoot Boat Club’s assessments and fees are not published: no dollar figure appears on the association’s website or in the recorded declaration and amendments our researchers read. The routes to the real numbers are the current budget, the rules and an estoppel certificate, which the association must issue within 10 business days of a written request under Florida Statute 718.116.
Data updated: October 2026
We found no regular assessment, special assessment, reserve schedule, capital contribution, transfer fee or rack or slip fee for the Boat Club in any primary document. The club’s website publishes none either. We therefore print none, and this page never imports a fee from a listing, a directory or a forum post. If you see a figure quoted elsewhere, ask for the budget that shows it.
Under Florida Statute 718.116, the association must issue an estoppel certificate within 10 business days after a written or electronic request from a unit owner or the owner’s designee. The statutory form states the regular assessment, the date it is paid through, the next installment, an itemized list of anything owed and scheduled to come due, whether a capital contribution, resale or transfer fee is due, whether board approval is required for a transfer, whether a right of first refusal exists, the other associations the unit belongs to, and the association’s insurance contacts. The certificate is effective for 30 days if delivered by hand or e-mail and 35 days if mailed.
The fee is capped by statute, and the statute adjusts the caps every five years. A request that is not answered in 10 business days carries no fee. The Boat Club’s actual resolution on the fee is not published.
On our reading of the recorded documents, a Boat Club owner funds one association layer, not three as at Barefoot Beach Club, because the Boat Club is not a member of the Barefoot Beach Master Association. Whatever the association charges for the State submerged-lands lease is not published, and the county tax bill is separate. Owners at Barefoot Beach Club fund three layers, their own condominium association, the Club umbrella and, through it, the Master Association; the Boat Club has no such stack that we found.
Owning a Barefoot Boat Club unit means county property tax at 9.4020 mills, association assessments that are not published, insurance on the boat and on whatever the association requires of owners, and one-time transfer costs that include Florida’s 70 cents per $100 deed tax. Each layer is shown below with its arithmetic or its source.
Data updated: October 2026
The county’s 2026 preliminary roll applies the same 9.4020 mills to every Barefoot Beach parcel: 3.9293 county, 4.1470 school and 1.3257 other levies, with no municipal levy because the property is unincorporated. At the Boat Club’s median 2026 preliminary just value of $35,179, the illustration is $35,179 times 9.4020 divided by 1,000, which is $330.75 a year. For a wet slip at $80,592 it is $757.73. These are illustrations for a non-homestead owner before exemptions and non-ad valorem charges. The county’s actual median bill for the 108 units is $321, and its bills run from $278 to $758.
The preliminary rate is lower than 2024’s final total of 9.5700 mills, which the Florida Department of Revenue’s copy of the Collier millage table breaks into the General Fund, Big Cypress Basin, North Collier Fire Control and other levies. Non-ad valorem assessments, if any, are collected under Florida Statute 197.3632 and are not in these figures; the tax collector’s bill shows them.
Florida Statute 201.02 sets the documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents on each $100 of consideration. On a $45,000 sale, the 36-month median, that is 450 times $0.70, or $315.00. On the $170,000 record sale it is 1,700 times $0.70, or $1,190.00. The statute taxes the deed, and the contract decides who pays; by Florida custom the seller usually pays it. In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, and the contract controls. Whether a boat-unit buyer buys a title policy at all is the buyer’s choice with the closing agent’s advice.
The association’s duty to insure the condominium property comes from Florida Statute 718.111(11), which also makes property-insurance deductibles and damages beyond coverage a common expense of the condominium. That is how a storm deductible can become an assessment on every owner. Whether the master policy covers the dry storage building, the docks, wind, named storms and flood, and at what deductible, is not published. Your boat needs its own marine policy, and we found no premium figure for any of these and publish none. Ask the association manager for the certificate of insurance and the declarations page.
The fourth amendment (OR 4180 PG 291) requires written notice to the board before a sale, gift or lease of a slip. A capital contribution, resale fee or transfer fee is not published; the estoppel certificate must state whether one is due. Ask whether the association charges a fee when a unit changes hands, and ask before you sign.

Barefoot Boat Club is governed by a 79-page recorded declaration, four recorded amendments, bylaws that provide for five directors and rules that are not published. The 2007 amendment requires written notice to the board before a unit is sold, given or leased. Whether the board may approve or refuse a buyer is not stated in the sources we read.
The declaration and its four amendments are public in the Collier County Clerk’s official records; the links are in the origins section above. Beyond those, Florida Statute 718.503(2) entitles a purchaser who has signed a contract for a condominium unit to a current copy of the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, the milestone summary where one applies, the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none has been completed, and the association’s frequently asked questions document, all at the seller’s expense. The statute writes the cancellation clause in paragraph (2)(d), 7 days excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, for the resale of a residential unit, and the Boat Club’s declaration creates no residential unit, so ask a closing agent or a Florida real estate attorney whether it applies to a storage unit or slip. We give no legal advice.
The Boat Club does not appear in the Division of Florida Condominiums’ public extracts that our research searched, even though the extracts show 1,797 other Collier County rows and the five residential Barefoot Beach condominiums. Why a recorded condominium is absent was not determined. A missing row is not evidence of any problem with the association; the Division’s public records page is where to look, and the recorded declaration remains the legal source.
Who may own a Boat Club unit is not published. The club’s website markets wet slips for sale or rent to boaters, and the research summary of the declaration does not show a residency requirement, but we could not confirm that none exists. Ask the association whether ownership is open to anyone, whether a buyer must be approved, whether the association or other owners hold a right of first refusal, and whether there is a waiting list.
The 2001 amendment provides for five directors, and the state filing shows five officer rows. We do not name individuals. The association’s state filing lists a Cape Coral management company; whether it is the current manager is not confirmed. Ask the association for the name of its community association manager and for the date of its last annual meeting.
Florida Statute 718.111(12) lists the official records an association must keep, including the recorded declaration and each amendment and the recorded bylaws, and gives unit owners the right to inspect them. Florida Statute 718.1255 governs how condominium disputes are resolved. Neither is a statement about the Boat Club’s own records, which are not public online.
Barefoot Boat Club’s website says its 18 wet slips are available for sale or rent, and the 2007 amendment requires written notice to the board before a sale, gift or lease of a slip. Rental terms, minimum periods, fees and any limit on the number of leases are not published, so an owner who wants to rent a slip or rack should read the declaration and rules first.
The club’s website describes its wet boat slips as available for sale or rent. It does not say who sets the rent, what the association takes, or whether a renter must be approved. It does not say whether dry racks can be rented. Those are the first questions to ask.
Section 20 of the fourth amendment, recorded at OR 4180 PG 291, requires written notice to the board before a sale, gift or lease of a slip. We read that as a notice rule. Whether the board can refuse a lease, set conditions on one or charge for it is not in our research summary of the amendment, so the full text is the document to read.
Does the declaration allow a lease of a dry rack as well as a slip? Is there a minimum or maximum term? Does the board approve a renter? May a renter keep a boat that is larger or heavier than the owner’s? Does the State lease or the association’s insurance limit commercial use, such as charters or a rental fleet? Does the association require a certificate of insurance from the renter? Each answer is a question for the association manager, in writing.
Barefoot Boat Club’s facilities are built for its unit owners and, according to the club’s own site, also serve renters of its wet slips and public customers of its gas dock. Whether owners’ guests may use the pool and clubhouse, whether anyone may live aboard, and whether charter use is allowed are not published in the sources we read.
A unit owner has the use of the unit and a share in the common elements, which the declaration lists as a clubhouse, a pool, a boat ramp and six temporary wet slips. The statutory definition of a condominium unit, in Florida Statute 718.103, is a part of the condominium property subject to exclusive ownership, which may be in improvements, land, or both as the declaration specifies. A condominium parcel is the unit together with its undivided share in the common elements.
The club’s site advertises an event center and a public self-service gas dock. We do not know whether a gas-dock customer may use the pool or ramp, whether owners may bring guests, or what the club charges for events. We have not confirmed that the gas dock is open to the public today or what it charges.
The declaration creates no residential unit, so a Boat Club unit is not a home even though this page uses that word for sale and listing purposes. Whether an owner may sleep aboard, run a charter from a slip or operate a rental fleet is not published. Because the answer can change what insurance applies and what the State lease allows, we would not buy a slip for any of those uses without the written rules in hand.
Rules on pets aboard boats or on club grounds, and on children at the pool, are not published. They are not a school-zone question either: no child is zoned to the Boat Club.
Barefoot Boat Club is in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area: zone AE with a base flood elevation of 10 feet NAVD88 at the address point, and by our reading of the public map layers about 23 percent of the structure footprint falls in bay-side VE with a 12-foot elevation, on FIRM panel 12021C0179J effective February 8, 2024. It is in Collier County evacuation Zone A and is not inside a Coastal Barrier Resources System unit.
Data updated: October 2026
On October 1, 2026 we located the Boat Club with Collier County’s address-point layer and sent that point to FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer. We then intersected the county’s 2025 building footprint and the condominium land polygon with the zone polygons, and queried the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Coastal Barrier Resources System mapper and the county’s evacuation-zone layer. The table gives the results for this address only.
Item | Result for 5025 Bonita Beach Rd |
|---|---|
Zone at the address point | AE |
Static base flood elevation | 10 ft NAVD88 |
Share of the structure footprint by zone | AE 10: 77 percent; VE 12: 23 percent (our reading) |
Share of the condominium land by zone | AE 10: 92 percent; VE 12: 8 percent (our reading) |
FIRM panel and effective date | 12021C0179J, February 8, 2024 |
Limit of Moderate Wave Action | A line crosses the footprint (our reading of the public map layers) |
Coastal Barrier Resources System | Not inside a unit |
Evacuation zone | A |
The footprint and land shares, and the wave-action line, are our own geometry from public layers. The FIRM panel and an elevation certificate govern. Nothing here replaces either, and the FEMA Map Service Center lets a reader pull the panel for the address.
FEMA’s rating rule for the legacy manual is that a building in more than one flood zone is rated in the more hazardous zone. Under Risk Rating 2.0 the zone no longer sets the premium for an individual federal policy, but a V-zone footprint can still matter for construction standards after damage and for what a lender’s flood determination says. Collier’s floodplain rules treat a repair that reaches 50 percent of a structure’s market value as a substantial improvement that must meet current elevation standards. Neither county document we read says how that test applies to one unit in a multi-unit building, so a unit buyer should put that question to the county’s Floodplain Management section before relying on any answer.
Collier County’s layer places the Boat Club in evacuation Zone A, the first zone ordered out, and Collier County orders apply here even though the mailing address says Bonita Springs. The state’s Know Your Zone lookup is the quick check by address. Hurricane haul-out or storm rules for boats at the club are not published, so ask the association what it requires of owners before a storm and who carries out any movement of boats.
No unit at Barefoot Beach, including all 108 Boat Club parcels, intersects a Coastal Barrier Resources System unit or its buffer zone in our test, so the Coastal Barrier Resources Act does not bar federal flood insurance there as mapped today. Two units sit nearby: the Wiggins Pass unit, FL-65P, covers the preserve to the south, and unit P17, Lovers Key, lies north of Bonita Beach Road, within about 123 meters of the Boat Club but touching no Boat Club parcel. The Fish and Wildlife Service page on the units describes FL-65P.
Unincorporated Collier County is a Class 5 community in FEMA’s Community Rating System, which gives eligible federal flood policies a 25 percent discount, according to FEMA’s April 2026 list and the county’s floodplain page. Whether the association carries a federal flood policy on the building is not published. FEMA’s March 2025 preliminary Collier map re-issues panel 0179 as 0179K, but the zone and base flood elevation at every address we tested, including the Boat Club, are unchanged from the effective 2024 map.

No recorded instrument, county record or news report that we found describes storm damage at Barefoot Boat Club itself, and that is a search result, not a finding. The measured record nearby is firm: a U.S. Geological Survey high-water mark inside Barefoot Beach read 11.76 feet NAVD88 after Hurricane Ian, about 0.4 mile from the Boat Club.
Data updated: October 2026
The U.S. Geological Survey surveyed a seed-line mark at the northwest corner of Barefoot Beach Boulevard and Anguilla Lane at 11.76 feet NAVD88, 4.5 feet above the ground, quality rated Good within 0.10 foot. Measured from the county’s address point for the Boat Club, that mark is about 0.69 kilometer away, or 0.43 mile; the distance is our arithmetic. FEMA’s flood layer shows zone AE with a 10-foot base flood elevation at the mark’s own coordinates, so the mark sat about 1.8 feet above the base flood elevation, though the mark is not a stillwater reading and includes some wave effect. The National Hurricane Center’s Ian report says maximum inundation of 8 to 12 feet above ground occurred in Estero, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs and North Naples, and that in Collier County 33 buildings were destroyed and over 3,500 sustained major damage.
The National Hurricane Center’s Helene report puts maximum storm surge at 3 to 5 feet above ground from south of Englewood to Bonita Beach, and its Milton report puts it at 3 to 5 feet from Bonita Beach through Marco Island. A Milton high-water mark filed by the Geological Survey under the Barefoot Beach site name reads 6.8 feet NAVD88, 1.92 feet above ground, inside a house, but its coordinates are north of Bonita Beach Road in Lee County, about 0.89 kilometer from the Boat Club, so we treat it as a Bonita Beach mark and not a Barefoot Beach one. Florida’s post-storm report rates the Gulf-side Barefoot Beach shoreline as major dune erosion, which concerns the Gulf beach and not the bay side where the Boat Club sits.
We did not find a recorded special assessment, a notice of commencement, an insurance claim notice or an association letter that describes work at the Boat Club after any of these storms. A search that returns nothing is not proof that nothing happened. Ask the association for its post-storm inspection reports, its claim history for the last ten years, and any special assessment since 2022, and ask for the lease correspondence if docks or pilings were repaired.
The 2017 Irma report and 2023 Idalia measurements show much lower water at this coast than Ian did: about 4 feet NAVD88 at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park in Irma, and about 3 feet above mean higher high water at the Naples gauge in Idalia. We found no document tying either storm to damage at the Boat Club.
Florida’s milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study rules are written for residential condominium buildings of three or more habitable stories. Barefoot Boat Club’s dry storage building and docks have no habitable stories, so we infer the rules do not reach it. We state that as an inference to be confirmed with the association, not as a finding about any inspection.
Florida Statute 553.899(3)(a) requires a milestone inspection for a building that is three habitable stories or more in height, as the Florida Building Code determines, and that is condominium property as a residential condominium under chapter 718. Florida Statute 718.112(2)(g) requires a residential condominium association to complete a structural integrity reserve study for each building of three habitable stories or higher.
The declaration describes one dry storage building about 155 feet by 115 feet and docks, and it creates no residential unit. A boat storage building is probably under the three-habitable-story threshold, and the condominium is not residential. Both points are our reading of the declaration and of the statutory text, and the Florida Building Code’s determination of habitable stories is not something we have seen for this building.
We do not state any inspection status for the Boat Club, and we do not repeat any map’s status label. The county roll carries no year built for these units, so we cannot compute a statutory deadline from a certificate of occupancy date and we do not guess one. We did not read the Division of Florida Condominiums’ SIRS reporting database.
Ask for any condition survey, engineering report or insurance inspection of the dry storage building, docks and pilings, the association’s reserve schedule, and the milestone summary and reserve study or the written statement that none is required or complete. Under Florida Statute 718.503, the milestone summary where one applies and the reserve study, or a statement that none has been completed, are part of the package a purchaser is entitled to. The condition survey, the engineering report and the insurance inspection are separate requests to the association.
No child can be zoned to Barefoot Boat Club because no unit is a residence. Collier County Public Schools assigns schools by address, and for the homes at Barefoot Beach the district’s locator returned Naples Park Elementary, North Naples Middle and Aubrey Rogers High on October 1, 2026. Confirm any address in the locator before relying on a school name.
Use the district’s School Zone Locator and search with the Bonita Springs city name, because the district stores these addresses that way. The locator returns a record for the Boat Club’s own street address. If you are weighing a boat unit alongside a home, our Barefoot Beach Club, Southport on the Bay and Villas at Barefoot Beach pages carry the school detail for those homes.
Barefoot Boat Club is zoned CF, Community Facility, under Collier Ordinance 90-55, sits landward of the State’s coastal construction control line by about 604 meters on our reading of the public layers, and falls under Collier’s Land Development Code section 5.03.06 for dock facilities, which sends multi-slip facilities of 10 or more slips to review against the county’s Manatee Protection Plan.
Data updated: October 2026
The county’s zoning layer shows the Boat Club parcel as CF, Community Facility, from rezone R-89-22 and Ordinance 90-55 dated June 19, 1990, with no planned unit development, and shows its future land use as the Urban Residential Subdistrict. That separates it from the residential communities around it, which sit in the Lely Barefoot Beach planned unit development or, for the Villas, a different one. The zoning layer draws the parcel at 2.5 acres, while the parcel layer says 2.14; we do not resolve the difference.
Land Development Code section 5.03.06 governs dock facilities. It limits how far a dock and moored boat may protrude into a waterway, sets side setbacks of 15 feet for lots with 60 feet or more of frontage, and routes boathouses and longer extensions to the Hearing Examiner. It also says multi-slip facilities with 10 or more slips are reviewed against the county’s Manatee Protection Plan. The Boat Club’s 18 deeded slips are above that line. We did not read the club’s own permits, so we do not say how the section applied to the existing docks.
Our reading of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s line and the county’s parcel geometry puts the Boat Club about 604 meters landward of the line, outside the State’s coastal construction control line permitting jurisdiction. That is our geometry, and it concerns the Gulf shoreline. Work in the bay and on State-owned bottom is a separate matter, governed by the State-lands rule in section 253.77 discussed above.
Collier’s building permits from 2011 on are searchable in the county’s permit portal, and the county says a Historical Permit Review may be done when a property is sold. Its permit history page explains how. For a Boat Club unit, ask the association for the dock, building and mooring permits it holds and for any open permit, because a seller can ask the association but cannot assume the county’s record answers for the whole condominium.
On July 8, 2025 the county zoning director issued Official Interpretation INTP-PL20250005504 for Tract 3 of Barefoot Beach Unit 4, the active recreation tract in Little Hickory Bay. It says docks are an allowed use there and can be permitted, built and transferred like other real property, including as condominium units or by assignment of license, regardless of whether the buyer lives in the planned unit development. The posted interpretation letter concerns that tract, not the Boat Club, and we mention it only because it shows how the county currently reads dock ownership in this part of the bay.
Barefoot Boat Club is entered from Bonita Beach Road, outside the Barefoot Beach gate, and is open 8 AM to 5 PM every day by its own account. For the Gulf, a boat runs south through Little Hickory Bay to Wiggins Pass without passing a bridge, or north under the fixed Bonita Beach Road bridge toward Big Hickory Pass and New Pass.
Data updated: October 2026
The Boat Club fronts Bonita Beach Road and is not on the gated boulevard, so, on our reading of its address, entry does not go through the Master Association’s gate. The club’s website gives hours of 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Sunday. Whether owners have after-hours access, what the 24-hour security system does, and how parking and trailer access are arranged are not published.
The south route runs through Little Hickory Bay, then along the waterway that the planned unit development ordinance describes as extending southerly from the bay to Wiggins Pass behind the preserve, then through the pass. NOAA’s electronic chart shows no bridge between the Bonita Beach Road bridge and Wiggins Pass. NOAA’s Coast Pilot 5 says the pass is subject to frequent changes and is used by small craft entering the Cocohatchee River. Current channel conditions are not in our research, so check a current chart and local markers on the water.
The fixed Bonita Beach Road bridge sits beside the Boat Club. NOAA’s electronic chart data, using source dates from February 2016, gives it a vertical clearance of 3.9 meters, which is 12.8 feet, and a horizontal clearance of 5.4 meters, or 17.7 feet. Beyond it, Coast Pilot 5 gives the fixed bridge between Big Hickory and Little Hickory Islands a horizontal clearance of 40 feet and a vertical clearance of 10 feet, and the New Pass bridge a clearance of 30 feet, without saying in the text we read which dimension that is. The Coast Pilot also reports severe shoaling in New Pass in 2016. Our reading is that a boat taller than 12.8 feet cannot go north at all and one taller than 10 feet cannot use Big Hickory Pass; either way, confirm every clearance on the water.
Florida Administrative Code rule 68C-22.023 sets Collier County’s manatee protection zones, and the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Collier zone maps show Wiggins Pass, Wiggins Bay, Water Turkey Bay and Vanderbilt Lagoon waters as slow speed all year, and the Cocohatchee River as 20 miles an hour all year from the Wiggins Bay south-end line to the US 41 bridge. Little Hickory Bay lies mostly in Lee County and falls under Lee County’s rule, which we did not research. The state’s Manatee Sanctuary Act, section 379.2431, is the statute behind those zones, and the commission’s boating pages carry the current rules. Do not read a zone boundary off this page: the rule’s legal description governs.
The club’s site says it has a public self-service gas dock; we have not verified that. Cocohatchee River Park, operated by Collier County Parks on Vanderbilt Drive, has four launch lanes, Gulf access through Wiggins Pass and fuel by credit card daily from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. NOAA’s Coast Pilot also lists several marinas on the north side of the Cocohatchee River near its mouth that sell fuel, water and ice and offer dry storage, in its edition dated September 27, 2026; fuel availability changes, so treat that as background.
The water and sewer provider for the Boat Club is not confirmed. The planned unit development ordinance places Barefoot Beach in Collier County’s Water-Sewer District, but the Boat Club is outside that development, and Bonita Springs Utilities’ franchise area is on the Lee County side. Electric, gas, internet, trash collection days and mail delivery for the Boat Club are not confirmed by any source we use. Ask the association manager for the current provider of each.
By road, the Barefoot Beach Club condominium building at 260 Barefoot Beach Blvd is about 1.3 miles and 4 minutes from the Boat Club, an estimate from OpenStreetMap routing without traffic. Seasonal winter traffic on Bonita Beach Road adds time we did not measure. A current Collier or Lee road-project status for Bonita Beach Road was not found.

We built this page from primary records, not a listing feed. We tracked every one of the 108 Barefoot Boat Club parcels in the Collier County roll, every one of the 253 county-qualified sales recorded since 1996, and the 17 inside the last 60 months, and we read the recorded declaration and each of its four amendments in the Clerk’s official records.
Data updated: October 2026
A team with the Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 recognition still has to show its work, so each step below is one a reader can repeat. We read the declaration and four amendments at OR 2197 PG 88, OR 2384 PG 1110, OR 2712 PG 1700, OR 2833 PG 1814 and OR 4180 PG 291. We pulled the county roll and recorded-sales files dated August 29 and 31, 2026, and re-derived each median here from the county’s own listing of sales. We queried FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s coastal barrier layer, Collier County’s evacuation and zoning layers, NOAA’s chart data and the Geological Survey’s high-water marks on October 1, 2026. We read the club’s website and the statutes cited here.
Five things stood out. Only 18 of the 108 units are slips; 90 are dry racks. The Boat Club is outside the Barefoot Beach planned community and the Master Association. The state’s condominium extracts do not list it. One recorded deed, $1,415,000 for a wet slip, is more than eight times the highest qualified slip sale and is not county-qualified. And the roll’s wet-slip numbering starts at WS-7, which leaves six numbers unexplained. We print each with its source.
The Southwest Florida MLS figures here come from the boat dock listings pulled October 3, 2026: 7 closings in 60 months and 7 active listings, too few for a median, so we list the sales and do not estimate. We could not read the lease instruments, the rules, the budget, the insurance policy or any assessment history, because none is public online. We list these gaps again in one place at the end of the page.
A Barefoot Boat Club unit is a deeded rack or slip in a shared facility with its own association, while a private dock at Southport on the Bay or Bayfront Gardens is part of a bay-front house lot. The unit costs a small fraction of a house, but a private dock is at your own lot and not on club hours. The two serve different buyers.
Data updated: October 2026
The table sets the two choices side by side using the records we have for each. It compares a boat space, not a house, so it does not rank them. Southport on the Bay figures are for its 100 improved homes, and the Bayfront Gardens figures are for its 27 improved parcels.

What you own | A deeded rack or slip plus a share of the common elements; wet slips sit over State bottom under a lease | A bay-front house lot with a dock where the association and county rules allow one | Boat Club if you want only boat space |
Entry cost on the county record | Median county-qualified sale $45,000 over 36 months, 11 sales | Southport median county-qualified sale $3,850,000 over 36 months, 19 sales; Bayfront Gardens 5 sales, $3,026,000 to $6,650,000 | Boat Club by a very wide margin |
County 2026 median just value | $35,179 | Southport $2,603,340; Bayfront Gardens $3,108,994 | Boat Club |
Tax at the county’s median bill | $321 | Southport $19,827; Bayfront Gardens $24,822 | Boat Club |
Flood zone | AE 10 with a bay-side VE 12 sliver | Southport AE 10 to 11 with one VE sliver; Bayfront Gardens AE 10 | Similar exposure |
Storm posture | Evacuation Zone A | Evacuation Zone A | Equal |
Access to the boat | Club hours of 8 AM to 5 PM by its site; staff-assisted dry storage | From your own lot, on whatever dock and association rules apply, which we did not read | Private dock for access at any hour, subject to those rules |
Route to the Gulf | South through Wiggins Pass without a bridge, or north under the Bonita Beach Road bridge | South through the same waterway to Wiggins Pass, per our research | Equal for the south route |
Governance | One condominium association; fees not published | Property owners association or homeowners associations, and for Southport a separate dock owners association; fees not published | Depends on the documents |
Renting the space | Site says wet slips are for sale or rent; terms not published | Southport’s recorded rules set a 60-day lease minimum and three leases a year for the house; dock rules not read | Boat Club if renting a slip matters |
The Southport and Bayfront Gardens medians come from their own county files, with their own windows, and the bill figures are the county’s median 2026 preliminary tax bills for improved parcels. Southport’s separate dock owners association is state document N94000006293, filed December 14, 1994, and active; we did not read its documents.
A private dock is governed by Land Development Code section 5.03.06: a dock and moored boat may not protrude more than 20 feet into a waterway 100 feet or wider, or 25 percent of the width of a narrower waterway, whichever is less, and side setbacks run 15 feet for lots with 60 feet or more of frontage. Longer docks need Hearing Examiner approval, and the code’s guidance says typical single-family use should be no more than two slips. Private covenants and the planned unit development can be stricter, and we did not read them.
Choose a Boat Club unit if you own a home or condominium without a dock, whether at Barefoot Beach Club, in Bonita Beach or elsewhere, and you want a deeded place for the boat at a small fraction of a house price. It also fits an owner who wants indoor dry storage with staff launching, and an investor who wants to rent a wet slip, after the rules are read.
Choose a house with a private dock at Southport on the Bay or Bayfront Gardens if you want the boat at your door at any hour, you also want a house on the bay, and the price of a bay-front home is part of the plan. Read each association’s dock rules first. For other homes nearby, see our Barefoot Bay page and our Cottages at Barefoot Beach page.
Barefoot Boat Club offers a deeded boat space close to open Gulf water at a county-recorded median price of $45,000 over 36 months, and the trade is unpublished fees, a State lease under the slips and a daytime-only schedule. The honest weighing is below, with each point tied to a source.
Put a number on each unpublished item before an offer: ask for the budget, the insurance declarations page, the lease and the rules, and compare the total yearly cost to a marina contract you can compare in writing. If the answers are good, a deeded unit at this price can beat renting. If the answers are not available, price the risk, or walk.

If you’re searching for a Barefoot Boat Club listing agent, or thinking, “I need someone to sell my Barefoot Boat Club home…”, McGreevy and Comisar is the team to call. On this page a Barefoot Boat Club home means a deeded dry rack or wet slip. Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar lead Domain Realty Group, and we prepare every Boat Club listing the way a buyer’s attorney will read it: documents first, the State lease explained, and price tied to the county record.
Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 is the credential we list first. The full list of what we bring to a Boat Club listing is below.
Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings, pulled October 3, 2026, show 1 Boat Club closing in the 12 months to that date: a wet slip at $90,000 on May 7, 2026, so the 12-month dollar volume is $90,000. It sold after 16 days on market, against a final list price of $95,000. One sale gives no average and no ratio. Over 60 months the MLS shows 7 closings, from $20,000 to $160,000. McGreevy and Comisar closed no sale at Barefoot Boat Club through the Southwest Florida MLS in the 60 months to October 3, 2026, on either the listing or the buying side. Collier County’s qualified record shows 3 Boat Club sales since October 2025, between $45,000 and $155,000, and 11 in 36 months with a median of $45,000; the county and the MLS count differently. With samples this small, each comparable matters.
A Boat Club sale is a documents sale with a boat attached. The buyer’s attorney and lender will ask for the budget, the insurance declarations, the rules, and for a wet slip the State lease and its renewal status, and a unit that arrives with those papers in order sells on its merits. We request the estoppel certificate and the statutory document package under Florida Statute 718.503 before we list, and we check the 2007 amendment’s requirement of written notice to the board before a sale.
Price follows the unit type. Wet slips and dry racks trade in different ranges, with the four wet-slip sales in 36 months at $90,000 to $170,000 and the seven dry-rack sales at $35,000 to $65,000, so a blended average is useless to a seller. We price from the nearest like unit in the county record and adjust for condition and what the association can document. The pool of buyers is boaters, so the listing has to speak about boat length, route, hours and fees, which is why we ask for those facts before we write the first line.
Request your free Barefoot Boat Club home valuation and we will come back with the nearest comparable recorded sales for your rack or slip type, and the document gaps that could affect your price.

Six questions Boat Club owners ask us before they list.
It depends on whether you own a dry rack or a wet slip, and the county record shows a wide spread: qualified sales from $20,000 to $170,000 in 60 months, with a median of $42,500. We use the nearest like unit, not the median. A free valuation from our team gives you the comparables.
You owe any unpaid assessments through closing, and the estoppel certificate states the amount. Under Florida Statute 718.116 the association must issue it within 10 business days and may charge a capped fee. The certificate also shows any transfer fee, capital contribution or approval requirement.
It affects what a buyer will ask. A wet slip sits over State bottom under a lease, and the buyer’s attorney will want the current instrument, its end date and the renewal terms. We cannot read the lease terms from public records, so ask the association for them before you list.
The seller must provide the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, the milestone summary if applicable, the structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none is complete, and the frequently asked questions document, at the seller’s expense under Florida Statute 718.503.
The 2007 amendment requires written notice to the board before a sale, gift or lease of a slip. Whether the board can also approve or refuse a buyer is not in the sources we read, so ask for the amendment and the rules. The estoppel certificate states whether board approval or a right of first refusal applies.

These are the questions Barefoot Boat Club buyers and searchers ask most, rewritten as plain questions, with answers drawn from the records cited above. Where a fact is not published, we say so and name the document that settles it.
A unit is a deeded condominium parcel for boat storage: one of 90 dry storage racks inside a single building, or one of 18 wet slips on docks over Little Hickory Bay, according to the recorded declaration at OR 2197 PG 88. It also carries an undivided share of the common elements. No unit is a residence.
It is deeded real property in condominium form, per the declaration, so a sale is by recorded deed. The wet slips add a layer: the bay bottom under them is State land held under a lease, and the 2000 amendment says the condominium land excludes the submerged lands and the leasehold. A membership is not what the recorded documents describe.
Barefoot Boat Club has 108 units. Ninety are dry storage racks, numbered DS-1 to DS-90, and 18 are wet slips, numbered WS-7 to WS-24 on the county roll. So 18 of the 108 are slips. The declaration and the county’s 108 parcels agree on the split.
The county’s qualified record shows 11 sales over 36 months, from $35,000 to $170,000, with a median of $45,000. Dry racks ran from $35,000 to $65,000 and wet slips from $90,000 to $170,000. Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings show 4 closings in the same 36 months, from $42,000 to $160,000; the two sources count differently. Asking prices in the Southwest Florida MLS on October 3, 2026: 5 dry racks from $43,000 to $60,000 and 2 wet slips at $100,000 and $159,000.
Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings showed 7 units for sale on October 3, 2026, 2 wet slips and 5 dry racks, and none under contract. The 7 MLS closings in the 60 months to that date took from 10 to 154 days on market; the most recent, a wet slip on May 7, 2026, took 16 days. The 7 active listings had been on the market from 18 to 814 days. The county record shows turnover of about 3 percent a year: 3 qualified sales in the last 12 months and 17 in 60 months on 108 units; the county and the MLS count differently, because the MLS misses off-market transfers. That is a thin market, so the right unit may take longer to find than a house would.
Not published. No assessment figure appears on the club’s website or in the recorded declaration and amendments we read. The documents that settle it are the current annual budget and an estoppel certificate, which under Florida Statute 718.116 the association must issue within 10 business days of a written request.
Not published. Slip dimensions, rack height and weight limits, and water depth at the docks are not in the declaration summary, on the club’s website or in any public record we read. Ask the association for the dock plan and the rules in writing before an offer, and have your boat’s measurements ready.
Depth at the docks is not published. The route south runs through Little Hickory Bay and a waterway to Wiggins Pass without passing a bridge, though NOAA says the pass is subject to frequent changes. The route north passes under a fixed bridge charted at 12.8 feet. Check a current chart and local markers.
Not published. The sources we read do not say whether any slip has a lift, shore power, water or pump-out. The club’s site mentions a public self-service gas dock, which we have not verified. Ask the association which services each slip has, and whether they are part of the unit or paid separately.
Not published. The club’s website markets its units to boaters generally, and the declaration summary we have does not show a residency requirement, but we could not confirm that none exists. Ask the association whether ownership is open to anyone, whether the board approves buyers and whether any waiting list applies.
The club’s site says its wet slips are available for sale or rent, and the 2007 amendment requires written notice to the board before a lease of a slip. Charter or commercial use is not addressed in anything we read. Ask for the rules, and ask the association’s insurer whether commercial use would change the master policy.
Not published. The declaration creates no residential unit, so a Boat Club unit is not a dwelling, and a live-aboard rule is not in the sources we read. We would not buy a slip for live-aboard use without a written answer from the association and from your insurer.
Not published. We found no insurance requirement for owners and no premium figure, and we publish none. The association’s duty to insure the condominium property comes from Florida Statute 718.111(11); your boat needs its own marine policy. Ask the manager for the master policy’s declarations page.
We found no recorded or published description of damage at the Boat Club itself. Nearby, a U.S. Geological Survey mark inside Barefoot Beach read 11.76 feet NAVD88 after Ian, about 0.4 mile from the Boat Club’s address point by our arithmetic. Helene’s surge ran 3 to 5 feet up to Bonita Beach and Milton’s 3 to 5 feet from Bonita Beach south, per the National Hurricane Center. Ask the association for its post-storm reports and claim history.
Not published. We found no condition survey, engineering report, reserve study or special assessment notice for the docks or the dry storage building. Ask for any condition report on the pilings and docks, the reserve schedule, and a written statement of any assessment approved or planned. The estoppel certificate lists assessments scheduled to come due.
Not published. The club fronts Bonita Beach Road, and its site gives hours of 8 AM to 5 PM. Whether owners have after-hours access, how trailers and vehicles park, and how valet boating is scheduled are not in anything we read. Ask the association manager for the access rules and any gate or key procedure.
Outside, on our reading of its address. The Boat Club is entered from Bonita Beach Road, not Barefoot Beach Boulevard, it is zoned CF and is not in the Lely Barefoot Beach planned unit development, and it is not on the 2011 Master Association member list. We did not find the gate rules applied to it.
We found no recorded right to do so. The Boat Club is not a member of the Barefoot Beach Master Association, and The Club at Barefoot Beach is a separate private membership that is not conveyed with any deed. The county’s Barefoot Beach Preserve is public, with its own parking and fee rules.
Not published. We found no storm plan, haul-out schedule or owner duty in the sources we read. The Boat Club is in Collier evacuation Zone A, the first zone ordered out, so ask the association what it requires of owners before a storm, who moves boats and who carries the cost.
Wet slips have the highest recorded prices: the file’s record is $170,000 for WS-21 in September 2025, and the four wet-slip sales in 36 months ran $90,000 to $170,000. The county’s own values also rank wet slips highest at $80,592 each. Slip size, position and services are not published, so we cannot say why.
We compared only what we researched. Cocohatchee River Park is a county ramp with fuel and rented slips, not deeded space, and NOAA lists marinas near the mouth of the Cocohatchee River with dry storage. Hickory Bay Boat Club is a separate condominium we did not research. Fees at none of them are published here.
Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 10 feet NAVD88 at the address point, on FIRM panel 12021C0179J effective February 8, 2024. About 23 percent of the structure footprint is bay-side VE at 12 feet, our reading of public map layers. The Boat Club is not in a Coastal Barrier Resources System unit.
We tracked every one of the 253 county-qualified Boat Club sales since 1996 and read the recorded declaration and four amendments, and Marc Comisar runs our buyer consultations at (239) 287-5873. We do not have MLS data to rank agents on Boat Club transactions, and we will not claim one.
These are the questions Barefoot Boat Club rack and slip owners ask before they list, answered from the recorded declaration and amendments, Florida statutes and the county’s recorded-sales file. Where an answer uses the Southwest Florida MLS, we say so and give the date of the pull, October 3, 2026. Where the Boat Club has not published a rule, we say that too.
The county’s qualified record shows 17 Boat Club sales in the 60 months since October 2021, from $20,000 to $170,000, with a median of $42,500. Dry racks and wet slips trade in different ranges, so your unit’s type, rack tier or slip, and condition matter more than the blended median. Request a free valuation or call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Whether the board must approve a buyer is not published in the sources we read. The 2007 fourth amendment, recorded at OR 4180 PG 291, requires written notice to the board before a unit is sold, given or leased. Ask the association in writing whether notice is all that is needed, and put the answer in your file before you accept an offer.
Not published. The statutory estoppel certificate under Florida Statute 718.116 has a line that states whether a right of first refusal exists, so the certificate is the first place to look. The recorded declaration is the legal source, and an attorney should read it before you rely on any answer.
Florida Statute 718.503(2) entitles a purchaser who has signed a contract for a condominium unit to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, and the association’s frequently asked questions document, among other items. The rules, budget and questions document are not public online for the Boat Club, so request them from the association early. The statute writes its cancellation clause, 7 days excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, for the resale of a residential unit, and the declaration creates no residential unit, so ask a closing agent or attorney whether it applies to a storage unit or slip.
Yes, if you own a wet slip or a rack with a lift or hardware of your own. Buyers of boat storage inspect what holds the boat. The condition of the common docks and rack structure belongs to the association, and the unit owner can ask to see the association’s official records under Florida Statute 718.111(12). We have not seen any such record.
We lead with the type, the unit number, the boat length and height the space is built for, and the access: Bonita Beach Road, the club’s ramp and the water route to Little Hickory Bay. We state only dimensions that a recorded document or the association confirms. Where the association has not published a size, our listing says so and routes the buyer to the rules.
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, so it is not usually a seller cost, and the contract controls. Confirm the terms with your closing agent before you sign. Either way, a title search on a condominium unit follows the recorded declaration, which is why we read all four amendments for this page.
Expect the documentary stamp tax on the deed at 70 cents per $100 under Florida Statute 201.02, which is $315 on a $45,000 sale, plus the estoppel certificate fee, prorated assessments and county tax, and the commission you agree with your agent. Who pays the stamp tax is set by the contract. Any Boat Club transfer fee is not published, and the estoppel will show it.
You may. The IRS explains in Topic 409 that gain on property you held is generally a capital gain, and that the home-sale exclusion applies to a main home. A boat storage unit is not a home. Your basis and holding period decide the result, so ask a certified public accountant before you list. We do not give tax advice.
Separately is the default, because the Boat Club is its own condominium with its own deed, and its units are not tied to any Barefoot Beach home that we found. Buyers of a Barefoot Beach home often want a slip, which can make a pairing worth marketing. Our Barefoot Beach community page shows the residential side.
It depends on who owns it and what the declaration says about alterations. A lift you installed may be your personal property or an improvement to the unit, and the answer changes what a buyer expects at closing. Name every lift, cradle and electric connection in the contract. Whether the association allows a unit owner to add them is not published.
Days on market: the 7 Boat Club closings in Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings in the 60 months to October 3, 2026 took from 10 to 154 days. The 2 wet slips took 16 days (May 2026) and 62 days (May 2024); the 5 dry racks took 10, 19, 28, 137 and 154 days. Seven sales is too few for a median. The 7 listings active on October 3, 2026 had been listed from 18 to 814 days. The county file shows only 3 qualified sales in the last 12 months across 108 units, against 1 MLS closing (the two sources count differently), so the pool of buyers is small and pricing matters.
It can. Florida Statute 718.116 makes the estoppel certificate list what is owed and scheduled to come due. We found no Boat Club special assessment in any public document, and we do not claim there is none. Ask the association for the current budget and any board-approved assessment before you set a price.
You should expect to answer. The Boat Club sits in Zone AE and the surrounding area took surge in Hurricanes Ian, Helene and Milton. We found no public record of damage to the Boat Club’s own structures and we do not assert any. If your unit was damaged and repaired, keep the invoices and insurance records and offer them to the buyer.
Only one the association’s recorded documents or rules support. The Boat Club’s slip and rack dimensions, height limits and weight limits are not published, so we ask the association and state the answer in the listing. A buyer will measure anyway, and a vague claim costs more in a failed deal than a precise one costs in a narrower audience.
It depends on the rules, which are not published. The club’s website describes wet slips as available for sale or rent, and the 2007 amendment requires written notice before a lease. Read the declaration, rules and the State lease first. Leasing keeps the unit and its tax bill, and selling ends both.
We believe we are, and we say what we did to earn it. We read the recorded declaration and four amendments, tracked all 253 county-qualified Boat Club sales since 1996 and listed every unit type. We do not have MLS data to rank agents on Boat Club transactions and will not claim one. See our guide to the best real estate agents in Barefoot Beach.
The commission is negotiable and is agreed in writing before you list. We itemize your net on request, with the commission, the estoppel fee, the deed stamp tax, prorations and county tax shown as separate lines, so you see what you keep before you accept an offer.
The county shows 3 qualified sales since October 2025: wet slip WS-22 at $155,000 on December 31, 2025, dry rack DS-56 at $45,000 on April 28, 2026 and wet slip WS-8 at $90,000 on May 7, 2026. The median is $90,000. This is the county record. Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings, pulled October 3, 2026, show 1 closing in the same 12 months, a wet slip at $90,000 on May 7, 2026; the two sources count differently, because the MLS misses off-market transfers.
We do not predict the market. The county record shows low turnover, with 3.15 percent of units trading a year over 60 months, so a unit that comes to market with clean documents stands out. Ask yourself whether you will use the unit this season, what carrying it costs and whether the rack or slip type you own has recent comparable sales.
Yes, in practice. A power of attorney, remote notarization where Florida law allows it and an electronic signature on the contract let an owner sell from anywhere. We coordinate the association’s documents, the estoppel and the closing agent so you do not need to travel. Confirm the closing method with your title company.
Probably. Lenders may treat boat storage differently from a home, and the county record shows prices from $20,000 to $170,000. We have no data on how many Boat Club buyers paid cash, and the county file does not say, so we do not claim a share.
The closing statement splits the association’s regular assessment and the county tax between buyer and seller by closing date. The estoppel certificate states the paid-through date and the next installment, which gives the closing agent the numbers. The Boat Club’s own assessment amount is not published.
The declaration creates a condominium, so a unit is real property with an undivided share of the common elements, according to the recorded declaration. A wet slip also depends on the State’s submerged-lands lease, which the association holds. The statutory definition of a unit is in Florida Statute 718.103.
The county file counts only deeds the county coded as qualified and shows the recorded price, while the MLS shows listings, days on market and the asking price. The two can differ for a unit that sold with a lift or equipment, or for a deed the county excluded. We lead with the county record and set the Southwest Florida MLS boat dock listings, pulled October 3, 2026, beside it.
The county recorded a deed of $1,415,000 for wet slip WS-23 on May 18, 2024 at OR 6370 PG 257, and did not code it as qualified. We keep it out of the median. We cannot say what else the price may have bought, because the record does not say; it may have involved more than the slip itself. Treat it as an unexplained outlier, not a comparable.
The recorded prices are higher, on small counts. The four wet-slip sales in the last 36 months run from $90,000 to $170,000 and the seven dry-rack sales run from $35,000 to $65,000. The record does not show why, though the water access, the lift or the slip’s dimensions are possible reasons. We would price each unit from its own comparables.
A buyer’s lender, insurer and attorney will each ask what is owned and what is leased. The lease term, fee and renewal terms are not published in the sources we read. Ask the association for the current lease and every amendment before you list, and be ready to answer whether a transfer of a slip needs the State’s consent.
Probably not, on our inference. Florida Statute 553.899 speaks of residential condominium buildings of three or more habitable stories, and a dry storage building is probably below that threshold. We have not seen the building’s plans, so ask the association whether it has done either, and read our milestone section above.
We did not research Florida’s flood disclosure rule for this page, and whether it reaches a boat storage unit is a question for your attorney. We state the flood facts we do have on this page: Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 10 feet on the current FEMA map. A buyer or insurer will see the same map.
Not well. An automated estimate uses residential patterns, and the county roll carries no base area or price per square foot for these units. Two units of the same type can trade at very different prices depending on rack tier, slip position and boat size. A comparable-sales review by an agent who has read the record is a better start.
They can, for a unit with a lift, a roof or a structure that was altered under a permit. The county’s permit history search is on collier.gov. We did not find a Boat Club permit problem, and we did not run a permit search on any unit. Ask your title company to check.
Move it before closing, or write the date into the contract. A boat on a rack or in a slip at closing is the seller’s personal property, and the buyer takes the space empty unless the contract says otherwise. Agree on the date, the key or gate access and who holds the rack’s hardware.
The estoppel certificate lists any amount owed and any amount scheduled to come due, and the closing agent pays it from your proceeds. Under Florida Statute 718.116, a buyer is liable with the seller for unpaid assessments, so an unpaid balance will hold up a closing.
