The Village of Sabal Chase sits between Mallory Hill Country Club to the north — the course that Mallory Square is named after — and Canal Street Recreation Center to the south, shared with neighboring Virginia Trace. Sabal Chase residents have access to both without the village being defined by either. Built in 2007 in Sumter County (ZIP 32162), with its own adult-only Sabal Chase Pool, Bogart Executive Golf Course on the south side, and about one mile to Lake Sumter Landing Market Square.

The pool setup is the first thing that separates Sabal Chase from surrounding villages. The village has its own adult-only pool — the Sabal Chase Pool, restricted to residents 30 and older. Canal Street Recreation Center, shared with neighboring Virginia Trace, provides the family pool and the broader amenity base: bocce, pickleball, tennis, and fitness. Having both within short distance means residents can choose: the adults-only setting for a quieter swim, or the full-service family facility for everything else. Most villages in the Lake Sumter corridor have one or the other. Sabal Chase has both, without a long cart ride between them.
Golf is available at two levels without leaving the village area. Bogart Executive Golf Course sits on the south side — included with the amenity fee for walking play, the standard no-charge executive access available across The Villages. Mallory Hill Country Club is on the north side — an 18-hole championship course where access is included with the amenity fee but greens fees apply per round. Lake Sumter Landing Market Square is about one mile away, making it one of the closer central-area villages to the waterfront square. Bond context: 2007 construction carries partial CDD balances still in paydown — not the near-zero levels of original-era northern villages, but meaningfully closer to paid off than newer southern construction.

Sabal Chase is in the central area of The Villages, in Sumter County, ZIP 32162. Mallory Hill Country Club is on the village's north side, Bogart Executive Golf Course is on the south side, and Lake Sumter Landing Market Square is about one mile away via the central corridor path network.
Homes in Sabal Chase were built in 2007, placing the village in the mid-development era of the central area — newer than Virginia Trace and Mallory Square but with meaningful CDD bond paydown compared to southern villages built after 2015.
Sabal Chase has Patio Villas, Courtyard Villas, Cottage Homes, and Designer Homes — the broadest home type mix of the nearby Lake Sumter corridor villages. The range runs from smaller Patio and Courtyard Villas through full-size Designer Homes.
Lake Sumter Landing Market Square is the closest, about one mile away via golf cart through the central corridor path network. It is the waterfront Key West-themed square on the shore of Lake Sumter, with a boat dock, waterfront dining, and nightly free entertainment.
Bogart Executive Golf Course is on the village's south side — free for walking play with the amenity fee. Mallory Hill Country Club is on the north side — an 18-hole championship course where access is included with the amenity fee but greens fees apply per round.
The Sabal Chase Pool is the village's own adult-only pool, restricted to residents 30 and older. It is a separate facility from the family pool at Canal Street Recreation Center, which Sabal Chase shares with neighboring Virginia Trace. Having both options — the adults-only setting and the full-service family facility — is one of the distinguishing features of the village.
All three villages are in the central area, Sumter County, near Lake Sumter Landing. Virginia Trace (built 2004–2006) has Mallory Hill's Virginia Course running directly through it and is the most established in character. Mallory Square (built 2005–2008) is surrounded by Mallory Hill and has its own dedicated rec center. Sabal Chase (built 2007) has the broadest home type mix of the three, its own adult-only pool, access to both Bogart Executive and Mallory Hill, and shares Canal Street Recreation Center with Virginia Trace.
