Uh, stay away

This course is in poor shape, greens are awful, and I wouldn’t play it again if it were free. Greens were unplayable. Terrible experience. Nice guy in the pro shop though. Stay away, go bowling, or watch tv instead. Anything but play this course.

BETTER DAY

HAD A BETTER DAY...SHOT A 98 THE BEST I HAVE DONE IN THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS. USED TO SHOOT IN THE 80S AND THAT IS MY GOAL TO GET BACK THERE. HAD 5 PARS AND WAS PROUD OF THAT BUT WHOLE NUMBER 6 AND 18 ATE MY LUNCH....LONG PAR FIVES. THE PEOPLE AT DIAMONDHEAD ALWAYS TREAT US VERY NICELY FROM THE FRONT GATE GAURD TO THE PRO SHOP AND THE 19TH HOLE.

Just another fun day

My wife and I just have the best time at Diamond Head, the staff is always nice and helpful. We enjoy eating a bite on the 19th Hole after nine holes and all the members and staff treat us very nicely. Would probably play tomorrow but going deer hunting. Thank you Diamond Head for helping Janie and I getting out and enjoying Gods beautiful land.

Sincerely,

Russ and Janie Smith

Great course

Enjoyed the layout. The front nine is straight and narrow with one hole following the other and the back is a cluster of holes. Great course for the money and the next time I visit Hot Springs it will be on my list.

Can't Beat the Price

GolfNow again offers an excellent bargain in golfing . This course on Lake Catherine is fun to play for a change of pace. It is in good shape, nice greens, with many varying elevations and tight fairways to challenge your game. Worth a visit, especially if this price pops up on your app when in the area.

The club house was very nice, good sandwich and cold beer. Friendly folks on the course too.

Fun course to play

Diamondhead is a fun course to play. Great course to play if you want to hone your game. Requires you to use every club in your bag. The course is not long and is what I would call a shot makers course.
