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.

Great time on a challenging course.
Course was in great condition! Will definitely be back.
Great course and challenging
Course is nicely maintained, and challenging. Love to be back again.
Back at Black
First round this season at Black Diamond was a solid 7 out of ten. The fairways and greens were in good shape for this time of year. The cart paths need some major repairs as my back is still sore days later from all the potholes. On of the greens on the back nine was under repair so a make shift green was created but no one informed us of this. Overall I enjoyed the day and will return.
Fun in the sun
Great round of golf today. Course was in great shape other then one green on the back nine that was under repair. Cart path needs some repairs in spots but otherwise the course was in great shape.
Great course
Great shape will play again but later to avoid slow play
Nice course
Played on the Mother's Day. Not busy at all. My son and I had a great time. Enjoyed the course very much.
Everything but the greens
For some reason people don’t fix ball marks on the greens. The course was in great condition other than the greens. Although they had good speed there was just too many ball marks that deflected putts in strange directions
If it wasn’t for rain
Played it 1 week after opening and course was in great shape. Great blend of holes that needed shot shaping and holes that were fairly open. Course is great. My advice would be to spend the money to cart because I didn’t get to play all the back 9 but it’s pretty up and down on the hills. I walked but would recommend spend a couple bucks to get the cart. Would recommend you play!
Course is fun with a challenge
I’m not a member but I play here often.
I love the course, and the staff are typically nice enough. Jordan behind the bar is always extremely friendly setting a good mood for the game.
Unfortunately the end of last season a friend and I were told to pick up the pace, (I’m a 80-90’’s golfer that has completed a round in 2hr) I was in a twosome with a twosome a couple holes ahead that had been since the first tee and no groups in sight behind. I stated this fact and asked how we were with the pace of play. The female marshal said we were average 9 min per hole which is fine but we should speed up to catch the group ahead. I think most golfers would agree it’s a physiological game, speeding up just to wait at every tee will play with the mind. I understand if there’s a gap ahead and group behind, sure pick up the pace. The second time the marshal came back around and told us we now had three empty holes ahead (after the turn buying food and drink) still no group behind. This put negative rushed thoughts in my head as I took my next few shots.
Just this past week, a friend and I were ready and waiting for our tee time. The starter decided to send groups with later tee times to go head of us because he wanted to group us with another twosome we didn’t even know and weren’t even there or checked in at the club house. Just a major disrespect to our time. My friend had a meeting after golf that pushing our tee time would make him rushed and late.
Again, fantastic course but some of the staff could use some basic training.
