About Us

In today’s society it is said that we have forsaken the village for the metropolis, turning our neighbors into strangers, and losing the word “community” from our lexicon. We see things differently...

Our History

When Evergreen Lifestyles Management was founded, we set out to create a different kind of Management Company. Golf is more than just a game, it’s a lifestyle. There’s nothing like stepping onto a well-kept course to play a round with good friends on a beautiful day. That’s the feeling we want to promote in every community we manage. The result has been tremendous growth and satisfaction to both our company and the communities.

Our Approach

Communication is the key to any successful relationship. For us, this old adage rings true from our corporate offices in Orlando to the neighborhoods of every community we manage. By bringing together the latest technology with the highest skilled individuals in the industry, Evergreen successfully caters to the complex needs of communities.

Culture

Within Evergreen communities we strive to foster a culture where neighbors know one another, are comfortable helping each other out, and extending an invitation. In order to successfully achieve this end, we first demonstrate these community values within our own company. Through an extensive support system everyone who works for or with Evergreen is given the tools needed to achieve excellence.

Working Hard For You

Working hard is the name of the game, and we aim to win ... win the confidence of the communities we serve, that is. Evergreen has been able to achieve this in Florida not only through our dedicated leadership and staff, but also by analyzing the unique needs of each community individually.

Our People

Our greatest assets are the men and women who make Evergreen what it is today. We strive to foster a culture where neighbors know one another, help each other out, and extend invitations to newcomers. In order to achieve this, we first demonstrate these community values within our own company.

Internal Talent

The quality of any organization can be measured by the people who are a part of it. For this reason we set out to bring together the smartest, most innovative, and hardest working individuals we could find. The result is a management team like no other. With over 100 years of combined experience, the Evergreen Leadership Team is a powerhouse of talent.

Through an extensive support system, everyone who works for, or with Evergreen is given the tools needed to achieve excellence. Advancements in education, training, and certifications are paramount to maintaining the highest skilled staff available. For that reason we support, and encourage our entire staff towards a path of self-improvement.
