Highlands Ridge: Championship Golf in the Heart of the Citrus Golf Trail

Tucked away in the rolling hills of Avon Park, Highlands Ridge Golf Club offers a premier golf experience with not one, but two distinctive 18-hole courses. As a key part of the Citrus Golf Trail, Highlands Ridge is known for its scenic beauty, well-maintained fairways, and a layout that appeals to both casual players and seasoned golfers looking for a challenge.

With peaceful surroundings, top-tier amenities, and championship-level conditions, Highlands Ridge is a must-play for anyone visiting the Sebring area.

Highlands Ridge Golf Club features North and South Courses, each offering a unique layout and playing style:

  • The North Course is the more forgiving of the two, ideal for beginners, seniors, or anyone looking to enjoy a relaxed round with wide fairways and a straightforward design. Water comes into play on several holes, adding challenge without overwhelming the casual golfer.

  • The South Course is a true championship-style layout, stretching over 7,200 yards from the back tees. With tree-lined fairways, elevated greens, and strategic bunkering, it provides a tougher test for experienced players. Yet with multiple tee boxes, it remains accessible for all skill levels.

No matter which course you play, you'll enjoy beautiful landscaping, native Florida wildlife, and smooth-rolling greens that keep players coming back.

Highlands Ridge isn’t just a golf club—it’s a golf community. With a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and beautiful homes surrounding the courses, it’s a favorite for snowbirds, retirees, and anyone looking to live where they play. For visitors, the quiet setting and friendly staff make it an ideal escape from the busier, tourist-heavy Florida golf destinations.
