Hot Day, but good play

We played in an afternoon time. It was HOT! However the price was great and we played pretty well. Front nine was quick with no one in front of us. Back nine however had a group that teed off on the back in front of us and played as a fivesome. Hope that never happens again.
They were SLOW obviously. We may go elsewhere next week.

Got behind a slow group today...ruined pace of play

Got behind group of 3 players and an additional woman who was with them and walking most holes until she finally caught up iwith the players. What a pain. she
also had a dog with her on a leash. This is a golf course, not a dog park. Hope it never happens again.

Also all cup sleeves had been raised and we didn't know why until we got done with our round. Someone in the shop should have told us why. Actually it was a good idea, but the worker who was doing it was doing all holes starting with #1. We had to wait for him on several holes and that also slowed our round. That should have been done before the play for the day.

Good round, had fun, great staff friendliness

Service was great. A few of the greens are not so hot now as the ove-rseeded grass is dying out. Otherwise all was fine. I played lousy on front nine and shot 41. Came back to life on back 9 and shot 39, for totql of 80. I always like shooting my age or better *84). Course is a good value still.

Hadn't played for 2 weeks hurt my game

Enjoyed the course as usual, but it was the coldest and most windy we have played in this winter. Played very poorly on front 9, but came back to life on back 9. As always good service and reasonable price. We had a good time.

Front 9 fun and fair, Back 9 will eat you alive!

Front nine has been simplified some and plays pretty easy. Back nine has forced carries over water that
exceed the ability of most senior golfers. Not fun to just donate balls to lakes! Also back nine has extreme elevation changes to blind greens.

Course was not marked properly so it was hard to tell where you were going. We saw many players going to the wrong tees! It was crowded and played a little slow because of the confusion of where to go next from various geens.

Fun little course with great pace and in pretty good shape

Always enjoy this course. A couple of pretty challenging holes,and some not so hard. Overall in decent shape.
Greens had been shaved and we starting to look not as good as they were a couple of weeks ago. Still a good bargain and fun.

Nice Layout, but poor conditions

No grass on fairways...weeds and more weeds. Rough
is not real long, but so dense you loose balls 3 ft. off fairways. Most greens in baked out condition. Dpubt if we play here again until it is ove-rseeded. We had an 11:00 am tee time, but the weather turned brutely hot in the afternoon...94 degrees with no breeze. Also course has no shade anywhere!

Excellent staff, friendly course

Lake Diamond near Ocala is getting better all the time. It is a great value for the money and we play it often. The staff is very friendly and helpful especially Darren and Terry. We will keep going to this course often.

Great value

The course just put in some short tee boxes. They are a big benefit for older players and it's more fun now. Course in somewhat rough shape, but greens are decent. Excellent value if you can overlook some poor fairways. (move ball to grass). New fleet of Yamaha golf carts are quiet and fast. Really like them.

One of our favorite courses

Arlington Ridge is a well-designed, well maintained course. It was somewhat damp in areas due to our heavy rains lately, but otherwise fine. Greens were a tad slow but putted very true. We were teamed up with a single "Charles" who was great to play with and a real gentleman. It was a fun day for all.

Arlington Ridge...one of our favorites

Arlington Ridge is an excellent layout with lots of challenge. Course is one of the best maintainance-wise in Lake County, FL. We've played several times now and love it.
