Pines at Diamondhead Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The Pines at Diamondhead Country Club was the first of two 18-hole golf courses built on the property. The semi-private course opened in 1969.
Designed by Earl Stone, the Pines measures 6,817 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 134 and a 73.5 USGA rating. The golf course features four sets of tees for different skill levels.
The major challenges for both courses are their tree-lined fairways. The Pines Course has well-placed bunkers and water that comes into play on many holes.

Great layout and course conditions.
Despite dealing with lots of rain prior to my Friday round, the course was in as good condition as you can hope for. Only 4 holes cart path only and 90 degrees for the rest; it shows the course drains well. The starter was very friendly and helpful. Only downside was a 3some playing in front of us was fooling around and holding us from proper pace of play (and despite meeting in the tee of several holes, they didn’t allowed my 2some to play through).
Great staff, course and pace of play
Staff couldn't be nicer. Beautiful course layout with homes not too close to fairways. Water comes into play on a few holes but not difficult to maneuver. Challenging course with fairway bunkers on most holes. Par threes were great. Good sand in bunkers. Greens were not sloped too severly but had movement in them and were on the fast side. You won't be disappointing with this one.
Great Day on the Golf Course
Well worth the Hot Deal Price. Not such a deal at their published rate. But still a great place to play.
Twin diamonds
There are two courses at Diamondhead , the Pines and the Cardinal.. we played the pine on Monday and the cardinal on Tuesday. They have a great restaurant and Bar,. Everyone was friendly from Richard in the pro shop to the starters. The courses winds there way through a combination working and retirement communities.. There were houses and condos that were all unique not cookie cutter like on some courses. These courses have personally. If I lived here I would be a member.
Had a great time on the cardinal course. Staff was friendly and courteous. Only complaint was slow playing stayed backed up several times.
Would recommend to all.
Great layout, good conditioning of turf from tee through greens. Always look forward to playing here.
Love the layout.
I'm a middle to high handicap and found the course very playable. The clubhouse is nice and the carts are in great condition.
Love it, nice
Well managed and maintained. Probably one of the best courses on the coast.
Great Play
First time traveling to Diamondhead Country Club. I played the Pines which was in great shape for it being December 11th! The greens were lighting but made it interesting for sure. There was a 4 some in front of us but no one in front of them. Took us 4:30 to play only problem.
