The course, as well as The Rookery, are owned by Marriot. In season it's open only to members or to guests at the Marriott on Marco. Off season it's open to members and to members of other reciprocal country clubs in the area.
Not public but Resort guests at JW Marriott Marco Island can play.
I think there is access through some local hotels...like the JW Marriott Marco Island.
