Big Cypress is a future planned town in Collier County, Florida. The project, originally called Rural Lands West, is being developed by Collier Enterprises and will consist of three villages, Rivergrass, Longwater, and Bellmar.
The town will be named after nearby Big Cypress National Preserve.
On June 27, 2023 Collier County gave the project its final approval. Despite this, a 2024 ruling by Federal Judge Randolph Moss has stalled the development of Bellmar, citing that its construction violates the Endangered Species Act.
