Short answer

Rock Springs Ridge is a subdivision of about 1,320 single-family homes in north Apopka (32712), built mostly between 1998 and 2018. In November 2026, active listings ran about $479,000 to $725,000 and recent closed sales $490,000 to $740,000. The golf course has been closed since 2014; the HOA has agreed to buy the land, and a restoration plan targets a first reopening phase in 2027.

## Where it is

Rock Springs Ridge sits off Jason Dwelley Parkway and Rock Springs Ridge Boulevard, south of W Kelly Park Road. It is inside Apopka city limits. Local news reporting puts the community at about 1,320 homes. Kelly Park School, a public K-8 campus, is at 4700 Jason Dwelley Parkway.

Orange County's Kelly Park / Rock Springs, the spring-run park, is nearby. Admission is $5 per vehicle as of August 11, 2026, with a daily limit of 280 vehicles.

## Homes and prices

Every home is single-family detached. Builders named across sources include Lennar, D.R. Horton, Engle Homes, Taylor Morrison, Cambridge Homes and Meritage Homes; a second source adds Ashton Woods, Pulte and Maronda.

Rock Springs Ridge price snapshot, observed November 2026

| Measure | Figure | Basis |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Active listings | $479,000 to $725,000 | List prices on two brokerage subdivision pages |
| Recent closed sales | $490,000 to $740,000 | Sales cited on those pages |
| Median sale, trailing 12 months | $592,000 | One brokerage, for the 209 parcels it tracks |
| Median of 4 recent closings | $540,000 | Same source, same plats |

These are small samples, and the medians cover some recorded plats, not all 1,320 homes. Use them as a starting range, then ask for closed sales in the specific section you are considering.

## HOA, CDD and running costs

Listings report HOA dues with a median of about $77 a month, in a range of roughly $8 to $151 depending on the section. Local news separately reported a dues increase of $370 per household per year to fund the golf-land purchase. Whether the listing figures already include that increase is not verified, so get the current number in writing from the association.

Listed amenities are tennis courts, a park, a playground, sidewalks and reclaimed-water irrigation. Golf carts are allowed. CDD status is not verified: check the non-ad valorem lines on the parcel's tax bill.

### The former golf course

The course closed in 2014. The HOA agreed to acquire the land, reported as 300 to 320 acres, under a 15-year lease-purchase: a $5.5 million price, about $7.3 million with interest, with closing reported for January 5, 2026. The reported contract prevents the land from being sold for housing development. On November 2, 2026 The Apopka Chief reported a 99-year, rent-free sublease to a golf operator that is to finance the restoration. Published targets: clubhouse and driving range May 1, 2027; the first 18 holes October to December 2027; the remaining 9 holes in late 2028. The course is not open as of November 2026, and those dates are targets.

Because the community is inside the city, the 2026 tax bill uses the City of Apopka total of 16.0079 mills. Estimate the bill with the [property tax estimator](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/tools/property-tax/) and the payment with the [mortgage calculator](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/tools/mortgage-calculator/?price=610000).

## Zoned schools

Listing sources conflict here. One names Kelly Park School (K-8; A in 2025-26) for elementary grades, another names Rock Springs Elementary (C) or Wolf Lake Elementary (A). For middle school, listings show Apopka Middle (B) or Wolf Lake Middle (A). Apopka High (B) is reported for high school. Grades are Florida DOE school grades for 2025-26. None of this is confirmed with the district, and OCPS approved a targeted rezoning for 2026-27 that involves Kelly Park School and both Wolf Lake campuses. Confirm any address with the [OCPS attendance zone lookup](https://www.ocps.net/school-attendance-zone-maps).

## Getting around

SR 429 (Wekiva Parkway) has an interchange on W Kelly Park Road. The Ponkan Main Plaza, on the SR 429 mainline in north Apopka, charges $0.98 with a transponder as of July 1, 2026. The City is widening about 1.5 miles of W Kelly Park Road, from west of SR 429 to just past Plymouth Sorrento Road, with a target completion of Thanksgiving 2027; a funding shortfall was still unresolved in October 2026.

## What to check before you buy here

- Ask the HOA for current dues for the exact section, and whether the $370 annual golf-land increase is included.
- Read the HOA budget and the lease-purchase terms: it is a 15-year obligation of the association.
- Ask what is final on the golf restoration. As of November 2, 2026 the restoration cost and resident access terms were not finalized and the sublease had not been released to the press.
- If the lot backs onto former course land, ask which restoration phase covers it and when.
- Confirm gated status for the specific street. One source describes the community as non-gated; an aggregator's tags include "gated".
- Get the roof age and an insurance quote early; the oldest homes date to 1998. See the [insurance and inspections guide](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/guides/florida-home-insurance-inspections/).
- Verify school zoning by address with OCPS.
