El Diablo, Dunnellon, Florida
Located
in Citrus Springs, an easy 30 minutes southwest of Ocala, El Diablo
proudly claims to have the "best greens in Florida." Designed
by architect Jim Fazio, this fantastic layout opened in 1998 and
has been very well received by all classes of golfers. Golf Digest
has already ranked the course as #12 in all of Florida; quite an
honor for such a new course. Beautifully landscaped, meticulously
groomed, and incredibly challenging, the design features fairways
that are tight and rolling while greens large and undulating. The
course also boasts no water and no surrounding homes!

JOEL WRIGHT says:
One of the best-kept secrets in Florida. Doesn't look like a
typical Florida course. Some of the best greens I've played.
Some of the prettiest scenery in the area. Worth the drive.
