Bustling on a Friday. Course was in great shape, bunkers were some of the best I’ve seen on a public course. We called ahead and squeezed in 9 holes while on a trip. Pace of play was good. 1 1/2 hours for 9, we didn’t wait once off the tee. We walked, it’s fairly flat and only a couple of longer walks. Some nice looking holes, it’s not overly long off the whites. A couple of dog legs were tricky, greens were in good nick, not overly fast but fairly firm. There’s a grass and mat driving range and excellent short game practice facilities with two bunkers, variety of terrain to chip and play flop shots etc. Only downside was that the restaurant was closed. One final piece of advice…. Bug spray. Use it liberally. We played in Fall and I was always fighting the bugs away trying to play.

Nice little golf course that's well kept. 18 holes, that's really 9 holes with a separate T off for the back nine. Well kept. Club house does decent lunch sandwich type meals and a decent beer selection that's well priced with really friendly staff.

NOT WORTH THE PRICE!!! 18 holes with cart is $100. It is cheaper to play at a really nice course like Sugarloaf, or Sunday River - like, places that actually have 18 different greens. Yes, the grass is very nice, tended by robot mowers (like a Roomba). But the signage is horrible, the pathways are confusing, and having 2 different holes in each green is interesting, but ultimately frustrating. The older woman behind the counter in the clubhouse couldn't be bothered to even look up from her phone to greet us - and we were the ONLY ONES in the building. What happened to good old Maine hospitality? Save your money and golf at a place that is welcoming.

My husband and a group of friends went to this course to celebrate his birthday. They paid $90 each and had two tee times booked. Partway through the round, a staff member rudely drove up and told them to speed up because the group behind them was supposedly waiting—except that group was part of their party. So either a nosy member complained, or the staff member made an unnecessary assumption. Now, if they had been goofing off, I’d understand—but they weren’t. No one pays $90 to waste time. While the course itself is nice, the service left a bad impression. It really takes away from the overall experience and makes you think twice about coming back. It's a shame, honestly.

Diadema is aptly named--a small gem that makes you feel both surprised and grateful to have found it. The course in its entirety speaks of special care taken. The non-pretentious, natural wood clubhouse, the unexpected practice range, the friendly staff behind the counter and those tending to the course--all give polish to the gem. The course itself lies at the heart of the gem--cozily settled among the Maine woods, smartly designed to be challenging, yet in no way intimidating to the average duffer. A pleasure to walk. The fairways, the greens, the pathways, the clear water ponds, combine to make the round quite rewarding, regardless of how your round is going. A small gem to carry in your pocket.
