Cardinal at Diamondhead Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The 18-hole Cardinal at Diamondhead Country Club, half of a 36-hole layout on the property, is a semi-private course that opened in 1979.
Designed by Earl Stone, the golf course measures 6,831 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 132 and a 72.7 USGA rating. The course features four sets of tees for different skill levels.
The major challenges for both golf courses are their tree-lined fairways. The Cardinal Course is wooded and was built on gently rolling terrain. It has no parallel fairways and extra-long sand bunkers.

Best Golf Course Experience!
I have played golf for 45 years, and I've played some very nice courses. Diamondhead is spectacular. The staff is friendly. The fairways are wide, and the greens are fast. No two holes are alike. The overall condition of the course was excellent. I play to play Diamondhead frequently now. The scenery was remarkable.
Great place to play
Great place to play! Great value for the price! Greens are very fast! I’m from the north so never played greens that fast! But scoring was good anyway! Nice layout!
Cardinal Pine - nice course
We had a great time busy but pace of play was good. Fun time and course in great shape
Great find
First time to Biloxi area and we were happy to find this very nice yet affordable course.
Glad we didn’t cancel because of weather!
Lots of rain on the course before our tee time. Course was wet and was cart path only however the weather was great during our round. Layout was great and staff was more than friendly.
Great course all around
Awesome course except hole 7 with that heavy equipment in the pond lol
