Sugarmill Woods is Southwest Citrus County's iconic ~5,000-home deed-restricted golf, tennis, and greenbelt retirement community, headquartered at 108 Cypress Boulevard West in Homosassa, Florida (ZIP 34446), at the junction of U.S. Highway 19 (S. Suncoast Boulevard), U.S. Highway 98, and the Suncoast Parkway (SR-589) Exits 62 and 65. Established in 1975 around a signature land-plan concept in which nearly every cul-de-sac home backs onto permanent natural hardwood conservation greenbelts or golf course fairways, the master-planned community is governed under Florida Statutes Chapter 720 by three mandatory village property owners associations—Cypress Village Property Owners Association, Inc. (Florida Sunbiz Non-Profit Doc# 753801, Active, at 108 Cypress Blvd W), Sugarmill Woods Oak Village Association, Inc. (Sunbiz Doc# 753800, Active, at 8827 S Suncoast Blvd), and Southern Woods Property Owners Association, Inc. (Sunbiz Doc# N46492, Active)—alongside community-wide advocacy organization Sugarmill Woods Civic Association, Inc. (Sunbiz Doc# 753499, Active).

Retirees and active adults in Sugarmill Woods enjoy optional membership in two premier golf and racquet clubs: Sugarmill Woods Country Club (1 Douglas St, Homosassa, FL 34446—27 holes of Ron Garl-designed championship golf) and Southern Woods Golf Club (1501 Corkwood Blvd, Homosassa, FL 34446—an 18-hole Hale Irwin championship course), complemented by the Oak Village Bath & Tennis Club (lighted Har-Tru clay tennis courts, pickleball courts, Junior Olympic heated swimming pool, and fitness center). Because all single-family residences and maintenance-free golf villas are owned fee-simple on deeded land in Homosassa (ZIP 34446) with low annual POA dues, full-time residents qualify with Citrus County Property Appraiser Cregg E.
