Summit Greens Proximity

You can see most of Clermont from the top of the hill in Summit Greens, and the great thing about Clermont is that it was built to be self-sustaining.

About Summit Greens Clermont FL

Summit Greens is a small community, with only 769 homes. This gives it a tight-knit, almost boutiquey atmosphere. One of our favorite things about small 55 plus communities like this in Clermont, FL, is how much the management companies are able to accurately gauge and cater to the interests of their residents. The residents at Summit Greens are generally very friendly and active — they enjoy getting together to play sports like golf, tennis or softball, and they rest just as hard as they play by relaxing at the pool or doing arts and crafts. 

The management team has responded to these interests by revamping the already incredible Summit Greens golf course, which has the most elevation changes out of all the golf course communities in Clermont and Central Florida. These renovations should be finished in 2023, and residents will be able to enjoy the greens running through their community. Summit Greens also took extra care when designing their pool, which has a garage door built in so that residents can swim outside from the clubhouse, and leave their things inside in case of a Floridian afternoon rainstorm. The arts and crafts room has also been designed beautifully, with windows overlooking the entirety of Clermont so that you have a birds-eye view of your city.

This is the spirit of Summit Greens: a community that listens, a community that cares about the interests of its residents. Even if golf isn’t your thing or if heights scare you, you’re certain to find something that calls to you at Summit Greens.

Everything at Summit Greens goes above and beyond — instead of having one or two tennis courts, they have eight full-sized, lighted clay tennis courts.

One great example of this is Stitchers for Charity, a club where those interested can create pieces of art from fabric and sell them.
