The Top 5 Best Things about living at On Top of the World

If you are searching for the perfect 55+ active-adult paradise in Central Florida, you have likely heard about On Top of the World in Ocala. Sprawling across beautifully manicured acres in the heart of horse country, OTOW is designed to give you the most vibrant, worry-free retirement possible.

Here are the top 5 things my clients absolutely love about living at On Top of the World.

A Golf Cart is Your Primary Vehicle

Around here, your golf cart isn’t just for the fairways. OTOW features an extensive, interconnected network of golf cart-friendly paths. You can easily cruise from your driveway straight to the fitness center, a friend’s house, or evening entertainment. In fact, you can even zip right over to adjacent shopping centers like the Canopy Oak Center to grab lunch or run a few errands without ever turning a car key.

World-Class Golf Built Right In

If you love golf, this is your paradise. OTOW boasts three pristine 18-hole courses. For recreational golfers who want to play multiple times a week without breaking the bank, having these courses accessible right in your community provides incredible value. Whether you are aiming for a birdie at the semi-private Candler Hills Golf Club or enjoying a relaxed round with neighbors on the private resident courses, a great game is always just minutes away.

Entertainment and Socializing at Circle Square Commons

You don't need to drive into historic downtown Ocala for dinner and a show. Circle Square Commons is the community's very own town center, bringing small-town charm and big-town entertainment right to your doorstep. You can grab a morning brew at Sid’s Coffee Shop & Deli, treat your grandkids to a cone at Mr. B’s Big Scoop Ice Cream, shop the weekly farmer's market, or catch a concert at the Circle Square Cultural Center.

Resort-Style Health and Wellness

Staying active is effortless here. The community features multiple premier fitness hubs, including the Arbor Fitness Center and the luxurious Ranch Fitness Center & Spa. We aren't just talking about a few treadmills, either; you have access to state-of-the-art strength training equipment, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis, and a booming pickleball scene. If you prefer a mental workout, Master the Possibilities, OTOW’s lifelong learning center, offers hundreds of classes ranging from fine arts and culinary instruction to computer training.

Over 175 Clubs

They say OTOW is "where the cool kids retire" for a reason. With a full-time activities director on staff and over 175 resident clubs, you will never lack things to do. There are clubs for cards, dancing, and gardening, but also hobbies you won't find anywhere else. Aviation enthusiasts flock to the community's private, 14-acre remote-control (R/C) flying field, which features its own 600-foot asphalt runway. Whatever your passion is, you will find your crew here.

On Top of the World offers an unmatched Florida retirement. Navigating the different neighborhoods, floor plans, and HOA options can feel a bit overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone.
