Florida
is a golfer's heaven. Citrus Springs Golf & Country Club puts any
golfer's skill to the test. Strategically placed sand hazards, sloping
fairways, and subtle greens, all kept with meticulous attention to
detail, make this one of the area's nicer golf courses. Just minutes
down the road, El Diablo ("the Devil") lurks. Voted one of the nation's
best public golf courses, golfers will find this course a mighty
challenge. Its rough is notorious, the greens slick and undulating, and
the fairways beautifully immaculate. A bit further north is Rainbow
Springs Golf & Country Club, which offers both a championship and
9-hole short course. Wide fairways and tricky greens keep golfers on
their toes, but the splendid views of the natural environment make this
truly a walk in the park. |
| For
fishermen and boaters, the county is nothing short of paradise.
Numerous waterways carve their way through the area, and all are
accessible within a short drive of the Citrus Springs area. The
spring-fed Rainbow River is renowned for its clarity and pleasant
72-degree year round temperature. Swimmers can relax on floats as the
river's gentle current carries them downstream. Boaters can enjoy the
quiet peace that hangs between the branches of hulking cypress trees
and gaze into the river's sparkling waters. Also nearby are the Crystal
River, Homosassa River, and Withlacoochee River. All of these offer
some of the best freshwater fishing in the state. And don't forget the
Gulf of Mexico along the coast where record-size tarpon have been
landed. |
