NW Ocala Horse Country

Farms, acreage and equestrian estates around the World Equestrian Center.

Where Ocala's horse country lives

Northwest Ocala, west of I‑75 along US-27 and State Road 40, is the heart of Marion County’s horse country. Rolling pasture, board fencing and live oaks line the roads, and many properties are working farms with barns, paddocks and arenas.

The World Equestrian Center has brought year-round shows, a hotel, restaurants and shops to the area, and demand for nearby farms and homes has followed. Whether you ride, board, train or simply want land around you, we help you look past the photos to what makes an equestrian property work.
