Candler Hills is the nicest course in the Ocala area. It is not easy and I guarantee every golfer, you will find sand. But, with that said, the course if FAIR. Plenty of room to aim away from the bunkers. Course is in great shape. I was in a threesome, sandwiched between two foursomes and played in an incredible 3 hrs and 15 min Flew through our round, but NEVER rushed. Love this place. Staff (Big Dave) incredible. Happy Hour is a must afterwards. Only gave 5 stars because I couldn’t give 10.

I am an 18 handicapper, and this course was a blast to play. I had 2 different 9’s. 48/43. The course was in great shape. I played the gold tees, and the ONLY negative was the tee boxes could have been mowed a little better than they were. Most were longer than the “norm”. But, staff was great and price was fair. Was able to use golf now. I will be back.

This was my first time playing the course, and it was amazing. The rate was fair if not on the low side for such a quality course. Though it is not crazy long (depending on the tee boxes used) , you have to make shots ALL day long. I played, not so great, but still had a blast. I will be back.

This is a bit of a strange gig!! Forget tee times, even if you have one. I was told, just go ahead whenever you are ready. I was a single, playing between a twosome and a five some, and they told me now to joining them, as they always play as a fivesome. Ended up playing with the two some. Course is ok, it’s long and in pretty nice shape. Probably won’t go back. It was a HUGE “ just ok “ experience. Staf was cordial, just needs guidance.

Please don’t judge this course by the yardage alone. It is a very nice layout and greens, though a tad slow, were constant throughout all holes. At 4,000 yds not the longest but for seniors and higher handicappers quite a challenge. Staff was super, and with Golf Now an affordable course to play. You must make shots and would suggest using a urethane covered ball and go pin seeking. Great gig!!

This course is amazing. Don’t let the yardage discourage you. You still have to make shots!!

Course is sweet. I believe there are 5 sets of tees. From the tips, tie your shoes and go ballin. Not a banger, equally challenging from the gold or green( I play a combo of green and golf). As a 19 handicapper, I shot 95, but a beautiful round of golf it was. Greens are consistent, and quite large. Only small negative is the bunkers need a tad of love. Would I play there again, Heck yea!! Not many courses. An accommodate a scratch golfer and a 20 handicapper at the same time. The Ocala National does this and more. Pick the appropriate tee and go for it.
