Why Are So Many Bonita Area Baby Boomers Moving To Naples?

In the last two years, there has been a flood of Bonita Springs area baby boomers and seniors crossing the county line to move to Naples. Larry and Chuckie McPherson are one such couple who attribute their decision to move to Moorings Park Grande Lake based on the partnership between Moorings Park and London Bay Development Group.

“We’re extremely excited to be a part of this new community. It’s spectacular,” said Larry. “The reputation of Moorings Park and London Bay – impeccable. The floor plans – outstanding. And the setting overlooking the Naples Grande golf course – absolutely beautiful. We couldn’t be any happier here.”

“As a former nurse, I love the idea of a Life Plan Community that promotes health and wellness throughout your life,” said Chuckie. “That was a big attraction and why we felt this was the right choice for us.”

“Location was another big attraction,” added Larry. “Being just minutes from downtown Naples, and as a golfer, having the beautiful Naples Grande Golf Club right outside our door was very appealing to us both. We feel the community is a home run and we wanted to be part of that.”

Luxury living alongside breathtaking views is something every resident at Moorings Park Grande Lake enjoys, along with having the benefit of onsite healthcare should they ever need it. With personalized healthcare and top-of-the-line concierge physicians, paired with a variety of amenities and exclusive restaurants, retirees are discovering the life they have always imagined.
