Deserves a play

I really liked the layout and elevation changes. I have some walking issues and the cart path only requirement made it difficult even though I had a cart. The biggest disappointment for me was that the greens were wet and never whisked even when I started at 11 am and no rain. Would be willing to try again on a dry day and see how greens were cared for.

Bad day to play

I highly recommend playing the course with its challenges and several unique holes. My issue is that I wear braces and the day I booked a tee time it was cart path only and the course was extremely wet in several fairways and this spoiled the experience for me. Maybe I’ll try again when I know I can avoid these issues

Bring your A game

Found the elevation changes and blind holes a definite challenge. Very large greens so 2-putt is not a given. wish course had easier markers to find for distances to green. Would definitely play again.

Wonderful Experience

I loved the elevation challenge this course offered. The greens were in good condition considering the heat in recent weeks. If you can’t enjoy this course regardless of score, your not a true golf fan

A special challenge

I really like this course, but someone must still be laughing at the way they positioned the pin placements. These point placements were not only unfair, but ridiculous for even the most skilled golfers. Not laughable for those who played yesterday. I've played this course several times and NEVER seen anything like this.

Get there early

Experienced the same situation as with my prior play there. Showed up early for 1 pm tee time and staff showed zero control over or concern for players matching up or RESPECT for the assigned tee time. I hurried to 1st tee 1/2 hr ahead of time to catch a twosome i was supposed to play with already teeing off. Yes, I like the course , but not the way Lake Diamond manages play. Singles signing up should beware of this happening.

A good choice

Course was a challenge. Main drawback was that it rained heavily the day before and it was cart path only. Since i have some physical limitations I should have asked for handicap flag. Disappointed that 9th hole does not return to clubhouse and I could have pursued this option. Also don't understand why 2 players assigned to our tee time never showed up at 1st tee, but had checked in. Would recommend playing, but not quite as good as I expected in terms of layout.

Lots of variety in this course

Played from the white tees and enjoyed the challenge. Greens were in good shape and play was at a good pace. Disappointed that threesome I was paired with was allowed to tee off 30 minutes before the scheduled tee time and I had to wait to be paired with another single before I could tee off. Make a promise , keep a promise to singles who sign up for a specific tee time. I arrived at the course 25 minutes early.

Not up to par

Fairways were just in ok condition and some of the greens were in terrible shape. Course was in much better shape a month ago when I played there. Maybe lack of rain contributed to current conditions.

Greens in good shape. Course tee times not on schedule for 2nd straight time I played. Played with other players I did not know, but they were all great guys. Need more urging by rangers to play at a ready golf pace.

Good practice course

This is strictly an executive course and not a course that let;s you use all the clubs in your bag ,except the 18th hole. Too short for most players looking for a typical 18 hole layout .Ok to play if you want to use a lot of shorter irons

Give it a try

I had an enjoyable day on a course that offers a chance to play a challenging layout with real character. Golf carts are new . The only drawback is the cart paths, but worth the rough ride.

Fun course to play

The only criticism I have is that as a single (15 handicap) they paired me with scratch golfers and I had to be moved to another group. The group I moved to only played 9 holes (I was not informed of this) and I had to scramble to find someone to play with after i finished 9 holes. Prior planning on their part would have been helpful. Wondered if Golf Now has any policy to give a rain check for 9 holes if I was forced to play alone?

Worth a visit

Course is pretty wide open. Thought the par 5's were the most exciting part of the course. Greens were a little brown. Front is much more challenging than the back. Course is nice, but not a lot of character.

Good Choice

Played from the blues, even though I prefer seniors ,but other player wanted company at those tees. The course was challenging with very windy conditions. The layout is wonderful. Greens were in need of a little water, but very fair. Shot around 90 and had a fun day.

Don't miss the chance

I love the layout of this course. Yes, the fairways are somewhat rough, but the greens on the 2nd nine were mostly excellent. Course has a very secluded feel so enjoy the ride.
