About Black Diamond Ranch
Black Diamond Ranch is a private, gated golf community stretching across 1,320 acres of unspoiled natural terrain featuring 45 holes of Tom Fazio-designed golf. 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.

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.
