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.

Golfer Reviews
Great drainage for very rainy season
Play here regularly course is always in very good condition even with very rainy conditions this year.Drainage at this course is excellent.Many holes with elevation changes causing many uneven lies in the fairways (Not very suitable for high handycappers).Very challenging course with some very good seanery.Very professional staff.I book through GN as a single regularly looking for tee times requiering one or two golfers as I dislike playing alone.I usually arrive at the course at least one hour early so I have time to warm up.I always let the pro shop attendants know where I will be incase of any changes to tee time as in teeing off earlier as well as letting them know my dislike of playing alone so that if the rest of the people for my tee time don't show up they can try to put me in with another group.l have been disappointed many times at other local courses due to bad unprofessional staff, not at Black Diamond Starters are always very organized and I have never had to play alone here.I would highly recommend this cource to all mid to low handicappers for a pleasurable golf value.
Course busy on long weekend
The course has many holes with blind shots which makes it challenging for many. The changes in elevation give the course character and there are many tight holes with tree lined fairways. Course was very busy so 5 hour round and waited at every hole on back nine.
Overall would play again.
Good value
We play here often. Good value, good pace of play. The new lay out is a great improvement.
A CHALLENGING COURSE IN GOOD SHAPE EXCEPT A FEW TEE BLOCKS,ONE COMPLETELY GONE. SLOW PLAY HINDERED OUR ENJOYMENT. A 5 HOUR ROUND OR MORE. LAYOUT IMPROVED FROM PREVIOUS YEAR BUT STILL SOME CRAZY HOLES THAT SLOW DOWN THE ROUND. IF SPENDING OVER 5 HOURS ON A GOLF COURSE NOT A PROBLEM THIS COURSE IS ACCEPTABLE.
Beautiful views
Excellent course in top notch condition. Very challenging holes, but the pines and the nature views makes this course a favorite. Would highly recommend.
Tight Course
Great challenge. Leave the driver at home the driving is very tight. Greens play well and positioning is important.
A True Test of Your Ability.
This course has always been a true test. You must think about your shots and not simply "Blast Away". I love the changes of the hole design as it mixes up the degree of difficulty and really challenges you.
One of our favourite courses around Peterborough
Course always in good shape; staff helpful and friendly;
course offers challenge and scenery
Greatest course in Durham area
Memorial memders tournament wit memorial garden ceremony and great food.What a day !!!
5 1/4 hours on Thurs am tee time.
I like the course but it is always more than 4 1/2 hours to get around. Last time it was 5 1/4 hours. No longer worth the drive.
Fun course
I had a lot of fun playing here. Very challenging back nine with enjoyable shots from all angles.
My only criticism would be that the bunkers could use nicer sand. They were all very firm around the green. More like mud. Otherwise awesome course. I will gladly recommend.
Fun Challenging Course
We enjoyed playing Black Diamond. Some challenging holes that got the best of us. But we hope to be back soon and show it who's boss. :) Only thing that could be worked on, is getting rid of the stones in the Bunkers. Other than that, love the layout.
See ya's soon,
Terry.
Too slow in that day when we play, because the marshal does not control two group in front of us th have 6 players all together. When we try to ask him to do so, he turn around and ran away
Great course, BUT
I like playing this course with it new layout.
But make sure you ask if there is a tournament using the course if you choose a later tee time. Extremely slow following tournament hackers, even if they where playing best ball.
Always A Pleasure To Play
Greens were in very good condition considering the wet spring........
Two holes are still awaiting for the re-built tee decks to be completed......
Clean the rocks out of your bunkers!!!
