Heritage Golf Group, the fastest-growing owner and operator of golf and country clubs in the United States, has announced the acquisition of Southern Hills Plantation Club in Brooksville, Florida, from managing partner MG Orender.
This marks the fourth and final acquisition in a multi-club agreement, following the additions of The Plantation Golf & Country Club, Country Club of Ocala, and The Palencia Club, which closed in late October. With this transaction, Heritage’s total club count increases to 47 across the US.
“It has been a pleasure working with MG Orender and the Hampton Golf Group team across these four successful acquisitions,” said Jim Oliver, Chief Operating Officer of Heritage Golf Group. “The addition of Southern Hills Plantation Club further strengthens our presence in Florida — now totaling 13 clubs, including ten along the state’s West Coast.”
Southern Hills Plantation Club features a Pete Dye–designed golf course complemented by four tennis courts, four pickleball courts, a full-service fitness center, and a resort-style pool. The club is also recognised as one of the Tampa area’s premier wedding and event venues.
Early capital improvement plans are in discussion and will be guided by member and team feedback to ensure enhancements align with each club’s unique culture and priorities.
