Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club

It doesn’t take long for a first-time visitor to realize that Golden Ocala Golf & Equestrian Club is a unique type of luxury development for Central Florida. Established in a country setting where ancient oaks adorn a gently rolling landscape, Golden Ocala provides a treasured lifestyle for those who call it “home.” Encompassing 1,200 acres of land in Ocala, Golden Ocala Golf & Equestrian Club is a private golf club and first-class equestrian community. Residents enjoy its ideal location - only a short drive to historic, downtown Ocala but far enough away that it provides tranquility and a sanctuary unto itself. Beyond Golden Ocala’s entry gate and down the tree-shaded roadway stands the community’s impressive 77,000 square foot clubhouse. Exuding Southern charm and elegance with its traditional pillars and balustrades, the clubhouse features full-service restaurants, banquet facilities, social rooms, a golf shop and a concierge service. The Golden Ocala staff hosts a year-round calendar of activities. Designed by Ron Garl, the 18-hole championship golf course’s legendary “tribute holes” from Augusta, Royal Troon, Muirfield, Baltusrol and St. Andrews are enhanced by the rolling terrain and the natural beauty of the area. The course offers a 10-acre short game, two practice holes and a staff of accomplished professionals. Other amenities at Golden Ocala include a 17,000 square foot spa and state-of-the-art fitness center. An alfresco café overlooks the resort-style swimming pool and clay Hydro-Grid (r) tennis courts. The Equestrian Center boasts an experienced staff with a full range of services, beautiful pastures, outdoor arenas and miles of bridle paths. Offering residences from 2,200 to more than 6,000 square feet, the featured builders at Golden Ocala exceed the highest standards of even the most discerning individuals. Golf homes start from the $600s and custom homes from $1 million. For more information, call 800-251-7674 or visit www.GoldenOcala.com.
