Brooksville, FL
Florida's newest golf sanctuary — sandy hills, wild greens and Cabot polish.
The new kid with a famous pedigree. Cabot — the group behind Cape Breton's celebrated links — took over the old World Woods property in Florida's sandy central highlands and rebuilt it top to bottom. The rolling, dune-like terrain now carries two reimagined championship courses, Karoo and Roost, plus short courses and a huge putting course that keep the games running past sunset. With cottages and lodging right on property, it is a Streamsong-style immersion trip with fresher paint — golf, food, fire pits, repeat.
| Course | Designer | Notes | Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Karoo | Kyle Franz | The bold headliner — wide corridors, wild greens and blinding-white sand on the old Pine Barrens land. | resort |
| Roost | Mike Nuzzo, Kyle Franz & Rod Whitman | The rolling, oak-dotted companion on the former Rolling Oaks routing — looser and just as fun. | resort |
| The Squeeze | Mike Nuzzo | A short-course sprint built for matches, music and side bets. | resort |
| The Wedge | Mike Nuzzo | A par-3 loop perfect for sunset skins with a drink in hand. | resort |
The resort
New-build cottages and lodge rooms scattered steps from the golf — modern, minimal, and built for crews that want to walk to the first tee.
◆ The private house
Book a block of adjoining Cabot cottages so the crew shares porches and fire pits on property — or rent a big lake house in the Brooksville countryside fifteen minutes out if you want a full kitchen and pool.

The buzziest new destination in the Southeast. Cabot rebuilt the beloved World Woods land into a modern golf sanctuary — two bold courses, brilliant short courses, and on-site lodging steps from the range. Pure golf immersion with new-toy energy.
Book lodging and tee times together through Cabot — on-site stays get rate and access priority. It is still ramping up, so course lineup and rates shift; have the concierge confirm current offerings before locking dates.
