A Hidden Gem with Deep Roots: Golf Hammock Country Club

Nestled in the heart of Sebring, Florida, Golf Hammock Country Club is more than just a great place to tee it up—it’s part of the area’s history. Located just 90 minutes from Orlando’s theme parks and both Florida coasts, this course is the perfect blend of peaceful surroundings and convenient access.

Before it became a golf destination, the land that is now Golf Hammock was originally envisioned as a network of bridle paths. But thanks to the foresight of Thomas “Tommy” Wohl and his friend’s casual suggestion, that vision shifted to something much greener. Renowned golf course architect Ron Garl took the reins and brought the 18-hole, par-72 layout to life, creating a course that has stood the test of time.

Today, the Golf Hammock community includes nearly 770 living units, making it a true neighborhood club with a warm, local feel.

Designed for both fun and strategy, Golf Hammock’s layout features tree-lined fairways, water features, and the kind of Florida scenery that makes for a peaceful round. It’s a course that welcomes players of all skill levels—challenging enough for experienced golfers, but approachable for beginners.

As a proud member of the Citrus Golf Trail, Golf Hammock offers great value, authentic Florida charm, and a connection to Sebring’s laid-back golf culture. It's also just a short drive from the famous 12 Hours of Sebring racetrack—perfect for pairing a round of golf with a bit of local adventure.

With its deep local roots, classic Ron Garl design, and easy-going vibe, Golf Hammock Country Club is a can’t-miss stop on your Citrus Golf Trail itinerary. Whether you're a visitor or a local, it offers a slice of Old Florida hospitality and a course that keeps you coming back.
