CABOT CITRUS FARMS
🇺🇸 Brooksville, FL, USA
Designed by Tom Fazio

Karoo at Cabot Citrus Farms exists in a place where citrus groves once defined the horizon, now reimagined as rolling linksland in central Florida. The course delivers a unique playing experience, rewarding bold strategy while punishing errant shots into the native grasses that frame each hole. Karoo encourages risk-taking with its generous fairways, but golfers must contend with strategically placed bunkers and undulating greens that demand a deft touch.
Designed by Kyle Franz, the layout evokes the spirit of classic links courses with its firm, fast playing surfaces and imaginative green complexes. The intention is to embrace the surrounding landscape while providing diverse shot values.
While not yet a stage for major championships, Karoo offers a compelling test of golf that resonates with players seeking an authentic links experience in an unexpected location. The club embraces a culture of camaraderie, fostered by post-round gatherings and friendly competition, making it a notable destination for those seeking a distinctive golfing escape. And although not verified, you can find many players enjoying a hearty portion of biltong after a round.
Reviews
unreal experience and worth the money
Tons of variety. Played it back to back days and holes played totally different based off tee boxes and pin location. Caddies were great. Lodging and food was some of the absolute best.
Awesome experience
Played Cabot citrus during its first preview play season. Absolutely love the property and offerings from the Cabot portfolio, especially here at Citrus The proshop has a ton of awesome branded merch, gotta get yourself a Florida orange headcover The course itself was in great shape for being brand new, ended up shooting the best round of my life at 3 over. I felt that some of the Par 5’s were so short that it basically guaranteed birdie or better. Having 145 yards as your 2nd shot into a par 5 was kinda sus. Overall love the property, the range is fantastic, the after round offerings were amazing The only issue is that the price is quite high for non resort guests. At $395/round, Streamsong has the better golf offering
Play this course when the rates drop in the summer. Some of the most fun golf I’ve ever played. Halfway house is terrific, caddies are amazing.
Great value during summer months. Caddies recommended, as always.
