Send me more about this home!
Tom Fazio’s Summer Home Golf Course
A deep respect for the land compelled Tom Fazio to design a course that uses the natural contours of the mountains to create a dramatic golfing experience while preserving the natural beauty of the landscape. Consistently ranked among the top courses in North Carolina, the par-71 course is open year -round and offers challenge and playability for golfers of all skill levels.
“It’s easy to make golf difficult in the mountains, especially on the Champion Hills site,” says Fazio. “The trick was to create a fair, enjoyable test for scratch golfers, as well as the higher handicap male and female players. With 5 sets of tees we were able to accomplish this goal and have a course that can be set up for any desired level of play.”
It’s an amazing golfing experience, say residents year after year, and a true mountain masterpiece that Tom Fazio is proud to call his summer home golf course. Send me more about this home!
A Master Planned Community and Club
The building lots in the Champion Hills community were carefully planned to maximize the mountain and golf course views without encroaching on the golf course. Even though the community is mature and has over 300 homes, the average density is less than one home per acre.
Most importantly, from an investment standpoint, the community is debt-free and managed by a resident board rather than a developer. The resident architectural review board also ensures that the spectacular natural environment of the community is maintained and that new homes or renovations align with the character of the community. Champion Hills Club is a private, member-owned country club. Admission is member-sponsored and requires approval by the Board of Governors. Send me more about this home!

Its famed Quarry Course is one of the highest rated courses in the U.S. and has garnered significant praise by golf’s elite. Located in the rolling hills of Lecanto, Florida, Black Diamond is a sanctuary for those looking for a special community unlike anything else in Florida.
The community itself is a nature preserve with an abundance of wildlife. Houses do not detract from the golf experience and the rolling hills and towering pines provide the perfect backdrop for a morning round or an evening walk. Send me more about this home!
A Breath of Fresh Air
Opening in December 1987, Black Diamond Ranch was “a breath of fresh air amidst the endless string of Florida’s gated communities,” says General Manager Doug Egly. “It’s the best of both worlds–an escape, worlds apart from the urban jungles of America, but close enough to all the major attractions, entertainment and niceties of city life.”
Developed by visionary Stan Olsen, Black Diamond was immediately recognized for the quality of the Quarry Course. Olsen was attracted to this relatively unknown region of Florida by the expansive sand hills, unspoiled coastline, big oaks, spring-fed rivers that flow into the near-by Gulf of Mexico and the sunny, temperate climate – great for year-round golf and living. Send me more about this home!
Magical Golf
Tom Fazio designed both the Quarry and Ranch courses at Black Diamond, but it’s the Quarry layout, especially the back nine, that put the community on the golf map. The 14th, 15th and 16th holes are carved over and around canyon walls and combine challenging shot making opportunities with fabulous views. This magical stretch of holes was called by renowned writer Dan Jenkins “the best five consecutive holes of golf anywhere in the world.”
Sitting quietly overlooking the Quarry course is the newly redesigned clubhouse at Black Diamond Ranch. Nestled among 100 year-old oak trees and towering pines, the clubhouse is the perfect respite after a round of golf with friends or a special dinner with family. One of the favorite areas for members to gather is on the wrap-around porch looking over the first and ninth holes. Homesites begin at just $15,000, homes range from $140,000 to over $1 million.
