by Ryan Erisman | Updated: March 1, 2025

Nature Coast Living with Country Club Amenities

The Villages of Citrus Hills combines elevated country club living with prime access to Florida's Nature Coast, delivering a unique blend of luxury amenities and natural surroundings that many retirees are seeking.

What sets this community apart is its location on Florida's Central Ridge (260 feet above sea level), creating a more temperate climate than South Florida with lower humidity and Gulf breezes keeping things comfortable year-round.

Location

The Villages of Citrus Hills offers that perfect middle-ground many retirees seek: close to nature and water activities while remaining within reach of bigger city amenities.

  • 10 minutes to the Gulf
  • 25 minutes to Ocala
  • 60 minutes to Tampa
  • 70 minutes to Orlando
  • Minutes to Crystal River (swim with manatees)
  • Minutes to Inverness (charming downtown)
  • Crystal River Preserve State Park (nearby)
  • Rainbow Springs State Park (nearby)
  • Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park (nearby)
