Fun To Play

Diamondback is One of the Tighter Courses to Play in Central Florida. Great course for the Money. Always Priced well. Fun Course to play and Love Playing this course at least 2 -3 times every Winter. Some Very Challenging Holes. Not for the golfer though that can't keep it straight. Very Tree Lined and tight!! Great Golf Course!!!

Challenging layout, beautiful scenery.

First three holes are very tough, since there's already a "bear trap" call it the "snake pit" Would rather hit the back 9 first.

Great place

Make sure you play the proper tees for your ability. This is a challenging layout that would be very difficult if your playing from wrong tee. Narrow fairways,well - guarded greens. Tough but fair. Course was in great shape. Pro shop very friendly and helpful starter. Minor complaint - bar/restaurant closes at 6pm so later tee times mean no time in 19th hole

Beautiful course and very well kept. I found this course to be very challenging. Bring your A-game or lots of balls.

Tight, lots of short par 4s, bring balls.

Snakes, Alligators, Bogeys, Oh My!
Bag man needs a friendship lesson. Even made the starter mad.
No rough: Trees, swamps, lakes border all fairways. Enjoyed the back side more than "lost-ball front". No rangers, therefore play was slow - 5 hours.

Nice track worth the price we paid

We played both this track and Greenlefe across the street. While this course was a little bit tighter (especially the first 3 or 4 holes), the course conditions were leaps and bounds better than the other course we played. The staff was friendly and pace of play was comfortable. We were not able to pull driver out of the bag until for the first couple of holes and this definitely is a shot makers course. The greens rolled true and fast and the sandtraps were nicely maintained.

If you are going to make the trip from Orlando (it's about 30-40 minutes away from the Disney area), I would definitely choose this one over the one across the street.

lots of risk/reward opportunities

greens a little rough, normal this time of year. otherwise in OK shape. lots of challenges some very long holes and some tough short holes. starter was terrific, with lots of advice for the starting 3 holes which gave you an idea of how the whole course would play.

Excellent value and very challenging

The opening three holes will set the tone for your game. They should be called "the snake pit" . Very easy to start out with three double bogies. Fairways are tight but in great shape. Greens are quick but true and held approach shots well. Lots of sand that makes accuracy very important. We are average golfers and we found that the white tees (5950 yds)gave us all we could handle. Only downside was that it was slow the day we played (5 hrs).Look forward to playing it again soon

needs attention

Greens need attention. Considering green contour,greens are not user friendly for tourist golf. 40 plus miles from Disney, cost , even with golfnow, is too high.

not the usual resort course

The course is quite tight and requires accuracy off the tee. There is hardly any water on the course but every fairway is bordered by trees and overgrowth and it's a lost ball if you go in it. No houses around the course and plenty of nature. If you are fed up with playing over lakes and between houses, give it a go.

TRULY ENJOYABLE AND INTERESTING

PLAYED THIS COURSE TWICE AND IT WAS A LOT OF FUN.
LOVED HAVING NO HOUSING LINING THE FAIRWAYS AS ARE MOST COURSES IN FLORIDA.
GREENS NOT PERFECT BUT IN OVERALL GOOD CONDITION.
WILL PLAY AGAIN NEXT YEAR FOR SURE.

ALSO HIGHLY RECOMMEND GRENLEFE COURSE ACROSS
THE STREET.

Tight fairways with landing areas that need to be used if you want to score well.

Tough, tight course that requires that most shots need to be to a target to set up for the next shot. If you can hit a 150 yd shot well, always consider that distance to shoot for the green on this course. The greens were fun as they have many undulations to consider. Play from your proper tees or closer the first time you play here. This course can take much more time to play as players try to find their wayward shots. Please drop another and keep going! I would follow these suggestions next time and expect to score much better.

Great shape Great Fun to Play

There was a pretty good rain early yesterday but the course appeared to drain quite well. The score card and maps of each hole are well laid out. It still helps to have payedthe course to get better idea where to place your shots. This is a challenging course that is fun to play.

Played this course in 2012 ,it was the best, this year definitely gone downhill in every aspect. Really needs some hard work being put in on all areas

Sorry but disapointed in the course presentation on all aspects. This course is a good challenge of one's golf game but having to contend with inconsistent fairways by way of lie, poor bunker condition with bad sand, poorly maintained and greens that have been scalped in places by poorly serviced mowing equipment to the extent that they are bald in places is not good.
Have played it off the Blue tees and my wife played it off some very bad well worn grey tees . All tees have a need of weeding and feeding.
A great course layout let down by what seems a lack of course maintenance .
The meet and greet and the bar is up there with the rest.

Challenging but fun

You need to place some shots, not always a driver off the tee. This course has a lot of character and plenty of places to get in trouble, but it is laidout well and well maintained. The first time it helps to play with someone who knows the course.
