About
Candler Hills Golf Club in Ocala was designed by Florida native Gordon G. Lewis. In a state that has no shortage of golf courses, Candler Hills manages to stand out. The layout offers plenty of length at 7,233 yards from the back tees. The 662-yard fourth hole is the longest par 5 in Florida. There are no water hazards on the golf course, but what it lacks in water it more than makes up for in sand. Strategically placed traps line the fairways and greens. The layout has some challenging holes but it's fair and playable for all skill levels. Candler Hills G.C. is also well known for its extensive practice facility, which has a range with target greens placed at different yardages and a short-game area with a practice bunker and undulating green.

Great place to play.
Pace was slower than usual.
Some dryness due to weather.
Great course and even better staff.
Nice course
Course in good shape, will be shutting down from May 10th to sometime in November as they are redoing it. Wanted to get one more round in before then
Overall Good Shape
You can always count on this course being very playable. A couple of the Greens had some rough spots, but overall very good experience
DA BEST!!
Super course. In great condition. What makes it so good are the cart guys, starter, and guys bringing water and ice all day. Now that's called caring about ur golfers.
ok course
decent condition generous fairways greens rolled true
Amazing
i’ve played a lot of courses near Ocala and Ocala, it’s the best course down in my opinion
Great Course
Got a hot deal and went out with another single that did the same. Couse was in good shape and played really nice. Course is going to be closed for a refurbish from May-Oct so wanted to play it again. Look forward to playing it again once the refurbish work is done.
Beautiful course
Love this golf course!! Would play everyday if I could!!
Look and Feel
Course has great look and feel and gives you good energy even through the bad shots. Can’t wait to play again.
High end mid level pricing
Good conditions throughout the course.
Good pace. Friendly staff.
