This course has good potential.

This course needs more TLC , rough and tee boxes need cutting , bunkers are in need of mtce., Greens are decent but have seen them in better condition.

Get There on Time!

The pro shop wasn't opened when we arrived and no one showed up until AFTER our tee time. They need to get there on time.

Looking forward to returning here

We have family close to Ocala National. I'm looking forward to getting back and playing here again. The staff and other golfers are very friendly. The staff was helpful and informative.

All of the oaks with the Spanish moss add a very distinctive beauty to this course.

Definitely recommend playing here. The price and the course is definitely an awesome value for a golf course of this stature.
