Good News and Bad News

The good news was the staff was friendly and welcoming. Overall, the course layout wasn't bad and some memorable holes. The greens were bumpy and not cut and/or rolled well and putts weren't true as a result and speed varied with grass thickness. The entrance to the course was poorly marked and GPS was my only salvation for driving right by it. I may not be playing this course much in the future until they improve the course conditions, especially the greens.

Long Day

Course was very wet from recent rains so cart path only was in effect. Unfortunately there was a college tournament going on and the 4-some we followed were excruciatingly slow. I understand their round was more serious than ours but when it takes you 5 1/2 hours to play it that is not good for anyone. Course has potential to really be nice.

There seems to be a culture at the course of groups of 4 not letting singles and doubles play through

Excellent Winter Greens

Really enjoyed my first time to play this course. Loved the layout! Lots of variety with the holes. Fairways in pretty good condition considering the level of rain they’ve had. Really enjoyed the firm and true greens. Will play this course again next time I’m on the Strand.

Very nice course but wet

The course was beautiful, especially the front nine with no homes lining fairways. There had been a lot of rain recently and on the day of play, so the course was soaking wet with balls plugging in a lot of spots. But the layout is great, and I'm looking forward to going back when it's dry.

Nice Course

Course had some challenge and was in great shape. Pace of play was fine but had a 5'some in front of us. We really enjoyed the numerous dog leg layout and the greens were fast and true. Overall this is a great course for the amount paid and we would return.

very challenging course!

Diamondback is a difficult course. Between water and wetlands and sand and tight fairways on a few of the holes, it’s easy to get in trouble. The greens are fairly fast and I had some trouble reading them. All in all a fun round of golf ...
