About
Black Diamond Golf Club was carefully carved from the foothills and hardwood and pine forests of the Kawartha Oakridge Moraine. The natural landscape, which is covered in fescue, provides many challenges including several elevation changes and water hazards. The layout is unique in that the front nine is more of an open, links style with a double green and numerous pot bunkers, while the back nine has a more traditional North American character. Black Diamond Golf Club's back nine has a few tricky blind shots that present a formidable test for players of all skill levels. The golf course also has rolling fairways lined with trees, carefully sculpted mounding, and 70 strategically placed bunkers throughout.

10th Green Photo submitted by jgolfd on 08/10/2016
Manager called me and said they were very sorry for what happened on June 4th. They said it was on their end that my tee time was cancelled and that they would like to make it up to me for the mistake.was very nice of them to call and apologize and make sure the customer was happy
Great course
Amazing course. Some really hard holes, some easy ones. I loved this course. First time I played. It was busy, but we never waited long on a tee. Moved well. I reccomend you give this course a try.
perfect weather but
Weather perfect and course largely in excellent shape considering spring weather
Marshals: 1 drill sergeant; 1 human being
Booking tee time
Phone ahead before your tee time make sure they didn’t cancel it. I phoned to see if they had booked a fourth player with us and they said I had no time booked. I gave them my confirmation number and they said it was cancelled. I asked when, by who and what was the cancellation number. They could not tell me said the course was fully booked and I was out of luck. I golfed there for many years and was not treated good at all was told sorry have a good day and he hung up. Will never golf there again. Bad customer service
Unfortunate
Hoping this course can recover as years previous I always enjoyed it. We started and the first few holes were fine as usual. But as the round went on the bugs become horrific (3-4 tee shots were barely able to complete due to 100s of bugs swarming you) on top of that it seems some animals hhave completely chewed up multiple fairways making many shots/lies unplayable. I understand it's the beginning of the season, So I will check it out again mid june and hopefully see some good changes.

Perfect Start to the Season
The entire staff we interacted with were an absolute pleasure. Ann was magnificent. Excellent day out!
Always enjoyable
Black Diamond always delivers. Although the course isn't as perfect as it normally is (it's still early) it's a great round and bang for your buck. The Covid measures in place make you feel safe and clean. I highly recommended Black Diamond. Thank u and see u again soon
Great Course
We first saw this course from the Highway on the way to Toronto from Ottawa. When we finally decided to stop and play, we were not disappointed. Staff was very courteous and the facilities are very nice. Golf course was in excellent condition and was challenging but fair. My wife and I teamed up with a single on the second hole and we enjoyed one of the best days on the course ever. It is now on our list of yearly destinations. Love this course.
Great outing!
Great course, well layed out and very challenging. Need to play it a few times to appreciate your club selection.
Worth the drive.

Course Redesign
Black Diamond course layout has been redesigned since I last played. I prefer the original layout. The course is a challenging one with very “fast” greens and “tight” fairways. Despite its toughness it is fun to play. Makes you recognize whether you are a golfer or not.
Thank you for visiting us at Black Diamond Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Scenic, spectacular best in Durham/ontario
Have played the course for many years as well as many others in the Region.
This is is a top five pick.
Friendly, well maintained, incredibly attractive.
It is one of the more difficult courses overall with its mix of links and hilly terrain but worth the challenge.
In recent years they have done an excellent job of making it lady friendly by adjusting the tee boxes so that my wife can have good positioning off the tees.
I recommend the course to other golfers frequently
