Always interesting

Course is in good overseeded shape for the Winter, with the greens being in exceptional condition. A few fairways are a bit weak in spots, but nothing to complain about. Staff was very friendly and pace of play was good. Plenty of doglegs and the back nine has several holes that will certainly get your attention. Not much of a clubhouse, but who cares when you are golfing instead of shoveling snow somewhere. Worth a trip.

Good deal but no ranger

Nice course but we had a group of five slow play down to a crawl and no ranger to tell them to speed up

Golfing a DLG &CC

Course was in good condition, overseeding coming in good. Greens just a touch slow, but overall the course was great.

It was creepily dead for a Saturday

I'm sure the course was not happy about this but there was almost no one on the course when we went. Not once did we run into someone or have someone come up from behind. I really think they may want to lower pricing to attract more people. It was a very peaceful and nicely paced round. Thanks.

Rough conditions

Lets start by saying the greens are in above average shape. T boxes are sparse and fairways are threadbare in spots. Hops some seeding and water can fix this place up.

JUST GO PLAY THERE!

Wonderful layout - tees, fairways and bunkers in playable shape - move the ball everywhere. Greens really really good and it makes the course worthwhile. Get a hot deal on Golf Now and enjoy this course.

no reservation

When we arrived at Lake Diamond they had no record of my Golf now reservation. So we had to pay on site. Please make sure that we were not charged by Golf Now.

Great layout

The back nine is so beautiful. The whole course skirts the Ocala National forest. Fairways and tee boxes are in fair condition the greens were good but a little slow. The bunkers are greatly improved.

STAY AWAY

This course was the worst course I’ve ever played on. Certain holes were closed off. Others were partially closed with a random pin stuck in the fairway. Was not surprised that we only seen 1 other cart playing on the course the whole time.

The fairways were a little bare in several areas around the course this outing.

Unlike last visit we had to roll the ball a lot in the fairway. The greens were very good and easy to play.
