Short answer

This page covers an area with several subdivisions: the villages of Sweetwater Country Club (about 510 home sites under one master HOA) and the separate gated Sweetwater West. In November 2026 active listings ran $530,000 to $1,075,000 in Sweetwater Country Club and $440,000 to $650,000 in Sweetwater West. Sweetwater Golf & Country Club is an operating, semi-private 18-hole course; golf membership is separate from HOA dues.

## Where it is

The area is off N Wekiwa Springs Road north of SR 436, bordered by Wekiwa Springs State Park to the north. Streets include Sweetwater Country Club Drive, Golf Valley Drive and Bolzano Drive, where the golf club is at number 2600. Named villages include Sweetwater Country Club Place, Sweetwater Greens, Villa D'Este, Heather Glen, Diamond Hill, Les Chateaux, Sweetwater Park Village and Hamilton Place at Sweetwater. Sweetwater West is a separate gated subdivision just off Wekiva Springs Road.

The county line runs through the Sweetwater name. These communities are in Orange County with Apopka addresses. The neighboring Sweetwater Club and Sweetwater Oaks are in Seminole County with Longwood addresses (32779), which means different schools, taxes and services.

## Homes and prices

Homes range from 1970s single-family houses to villas, townhomes and a gated enclave built from 2018 to 2021. One source credits Ashton Woods, Cambridge Homes and Castlework Homes as builders.

## HOA, CDD and running costs

Fees vary by village, and the master HOA does not publish dues on its site. Listing-reported figures: Sweetwater Country Club about $250 to $475 a month (one townhome at about $322), the 2018-to-2021 gated enclave about $385 a month, and Sweetwater West about $275 to $300 a month. CDD status is not verified.

Per the HOA, owners have deeded access to a Lake Brantley beach, park and boat ramp shared with Sweetwater Oaks, and can use tennis, pickleball and basketball courts and ball fields there with a gate card, for which the HOA cites a $20 charge. Golf is a separate cost. The club describes itself as semi-private, so membership is not required to play. One listing advertised no-cost golf access; those terms were not verified.

Tax district depends on city-limits status, which was not verified. The 2026 totals are 16.0079 mills inside Apopka and 15.9798 mills at the base unincorporated rate. Use the [property tax estimator](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/tools/property-tax/) and the [mortgage calculator](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/tools/mortgage-calculator/?price=757500), and add the monthly HOA fee to the payment.

## Zoned schools

Reported zones differ between villages. For the newer enclave, sources report Clay Springs Elementary (B in 2025-26), Piedmont Lakes Middle (B) and Wekiva High (C). For Sweetwater West, they report Rock Springs Elementary (C), Apopka Middle (B) and Apopka High (B). Grades are Florida DOE school grades for 2025-26. Confirm by address with the [OCPS attendance zone lookup](https://www.ocps.net/school-attendance-zone-maps).

## Getting around

SR 436 (Semoran Boulevard) is the toll-free route east to Altamonte Springs and I-4. SunRail does not serve Apopka; the nearest station is Altamonte Springs, reached by SR 436. Wekiwa Springs State Park charges $6 per vehicle and has required day-use reservations since September 2, 2025.

## What to check before you buy here

- Confirm the county. An Apopka address here is Orange County; a Longwood address in Sweetwater Club or Sweetwater Oaks is Seminole County.
- Get the exact monthly fee for the village, what it covers, and whether a master fee is billed separately.
- Ask the golf club for current membership categories and rates; do not assume golf comes with the home.
- Ask about sewer or septic. Orange County's Wekiwa Springs septic retrofit program named Sweetwater West among its project neighborhoods.
- For 1970s homes, get the roof age, plumbing and electrical details and an insurance quote early. See the [insurance and inspections guide](https://moorerealtyapopka.com/guides/florida-home-insurance-inspections/).
- Confirm the lake-access rights in the deed and HOA documents for the specific lot.
- Verify school zoning by address with OCPS.
