STILL A CHALLENGE!

Course is quite challenging using the natural landscape. Some holes are "take your medicine" type holes...no way to sneak a birdie shot (18 is best example). Greens were in amazing shape considering the heat wave we're suffering through. Course has numerous holes with creeks on both sides, so accuracy is a must.

19th hole is nice. Staff (bar and pro shop) are friendly and happy to help you.

AFFORDABLE BUT TOUGH

There are some holes that are ridiculous only because they cater to the local terrain. Tee..fairways...greens...all very nice.

Very friendly staff. The course was a little rough but that’s to be expected with the extremely wet winter weather we have had. Overall a great value

Not Satisfied

My wife and I had a GolfNow reservation to play this course. When we arrived the course was closed - and the club house manager could not find our reservation.

We had driven to the course, so the day was lost.

When I contacted GolfNow they never explained to me how this happened. The only resolution was not to charge me (Ha, ha, ha).

We are not happy.

Great course!

Took a weekend trip to hot springs and we decided on playing diamongead, we were not disappointed! The course was phenomenal, had some good dog legs, awesome elevation change, greens were in good condition. Next time I'm in town I will play again for sure.
