New owners haven't done a thing yet

It was worth the $20 I paid THAT day thru golf now, but not any other time. Carts are nice, grass in fairways are spotty at best, greens are ok, tee boxes are the same as every other course, the range & Chipping & putting greens are very good. It seems like every course around the Homosassa area & 10-15 miles outside that perimeter within the last year has gone to the dogs. Hernando Oaks is the best bet in my book.

Coming along

Lack of water during the summer has really hurt the fairways. The greens and bonkers are in great shape so you can roll it in the fairway and have a good round.

Not Bad

This quality of this course has been hit or miss over the past few years (mostly miss)…i played 18 recently and was pleasantly surprised. The fairways, tee boxes and greens were in pretty decent shape. They had just over-seeded the fairways…so it was rough/cart path only. Overall, my buddy snd I had a great time playing this course.

Amazing Course - Worth My Time!

I must start by saying Citrus National has really become a favorite place to play. I am happy with all aspects of the golf experience. First, the course is in excellent shape and is getting better every day. Scott is really doing a phenomenal job with this course. Not only has he and his team transformed the course, they also have some really solid staff members. One in particular is Nick in the Pro Shop. Although somewhat younger than the average players, he is a rock star when it comes to connecting with those coming to play. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and makes you feel good about playing the course. He represents Scott very well. Citrus National Team, keep up the amazing work and please feel proud about what you have done to make the course a great place to play! THANK YOU!! George

Winter golf in Florida

You have to expect rough conditions this time of the year. I would love to play when the conditions are better. The price was great. The pace was horrible. They need to pair up foursomes, to many twosomes. Practice area was great

BAPP

After reading recent negative reviews, I found the course to be in fairly good condition. It is apparent that work is being done to improve course conditions. Our foursome will keep this course for future play.
