Continue your Ocala National experience at the colonial clubhouse where Ocala's finest dine and enjoy life. To see Ocala National Golf Club is to experience the embodiment of the Castro family's great devotion to Ocala. Sharing their sense of quality with others ultimately resulted in the development of the Ocala National Golf Club, creating Marion County's first private club. Breaking ground in mid-1963, the Club attracted notable thoroughbred breeders to its initial board. Heavyweight boxing champion Rocky Marciano was also a founding member. Once deeded to its membership, the Club returned to the Castro family interests in 2002 through a partnership forged between Bernadette Castro and golf architect Rees Jones. The stately colonial clubhouse has been rejuvenated to feature a fitness center, an enhanced Olympic-sized swimming pool, a state-of-the-art golf shop, the elegant Belmont Ballroom that seats 250 guests, as well as smaller, private dining areas throughout the gracious building. Ocala National has played host to many professional, state and national amateur events. The Club remains the only course in North Central Florida to host a USGA Championship when Ocala National was selected host site of the 2009 U.S. Womens Mid-Amateur Championship. In June 2012, Citrus Hills Golf and Country Club acquired Ocala National Golf Club, and now welcomes members and the general public with the opportunity to experience this magnificent facility that for the past 50 years was accessible only to members of the Club.
