A Wonderful Gold Course

One of the best and most interesting parkland courses I have ever played. Its tree lined fairways, water hazards, tricky bunkers, interesting mix of difficulty and its beautiful.

a must in southern germany

golfclub oberschwaben is in my opinion one of the best in germany/austria/switzerland.
excellent shape, very tricky holes, no fairway is like the others.
a parkland course, very quiet and not overcrowded.
the clubhouse is simple but very cosy, the meals they offer are not expensive and on a very good level.
staff is friendly - playing here is a must.
nearby is the fürstliche golfclub, a younger course.
also interesting but not on the level of the golfclub oberschwaben.
this course has a little hotel where you can stay

Just lovely

Even the start at the registration/reception shows that professionals are at work here. Absolute customer orientation, friendliness and courteous in every respect.
Golf courses well organized and maintained.
Restaurant and hotel as well as parking space service are top. The new wellness area is particularly nice.
We'd love to come back.

Although - nevertheless

We generally do not travel without our small dog and have visited the golf resort a number of times. Especially since this is also permitted on the Old Course, whose 18 holes we really like, Bad Waldsee is ideal for a (short) vacation.

Despite the heat/drought, the course was in excellent condition. The only pity was that the greens were aerated and given brown fertilizer the next day. This would have to be mentioned when reserving tee times, so switching to the New Course would be an obvious choice.

Again, all the girls at reception and in service were very kind and nice.
Thanks.

Old course in good condition

Played the Old Course on June 17. It was very hot that day. Because of the many large trees, we were always able to stand in the shade.
Maintained fairways and bunkers as well as greens
Friendly 19th hole and large driving ranch
Ideal for Womo and golf as there are also some pitches with electricity

Well maintained, bunker not enough sand

We played the Old Course and the New Course at the end of April 22. The places were very well maintained, unfortunately the bunkers had too little sand. The bunker game is no fun there. In both places you should have a certain basic length for the long strokes. Unfortunately, we often had to wait for flights in front of us, which required a few strokes too many.

Great places - great location

We played both courses - the New Course in particular is very demanding. Both places in top condition, the gardeners have also made a lot of effort with the rough (very high, but everything in colorful blooms - a feast for the eyes). We arrived with the mobile home and were able to stand on the golf course's own parking space, which is equipped with a power connection, fresh water supply and disposal station, it hardly gets any better. Use of the shower and changing rooms is included, as is all reception services. If the weather cooperates - we had sunshine during the day and wonderful coolness at night - the motorhome golfer's heart is happy.
We'll be back and have already made reservations.

Four parts

I have to split my rating for this golf club:
Since we used the golf hotel to stay overnight on our 2-day tour to Bad Waldsee, now the individual reviews...

Hotel:
Small, cozy and very clean rooms with a small balcony.
Delicious breakfast.
Outstanding beds.
Located in the upper price segment.
4 ***

T 19 (restaurant):
Super-friendly waitresses, with an explanation of the dishes, the homemade sorbets, the homemade chocolates, the soups, the extremely tasty main courses (recommend everyone the Norwegian salmon !!!) the...
... I quit!
For the entire T19 package
5 ***

NEW COURSE:
First impression: PACK THE DRIVER!
Second impression: only sometimes...
The first 5 holes play through a relatively wide landscape. (Rough mowed shortly before?) From lane 6 the place becomes hilly and in my eyes more beautiful.
The holes around the lake are a feast for the eyes!
The beverage supplier at hole 12 with her cart, too, by the way.
The longer you play it, the course increases in height differences!
5 ***

OLD COURSE:
We felt as if the GC ULM had pushed mountains in from below!
Fantastic trees, very hilly, but still manageable on foot.
Holes that take your breath away!
My favorite hole was definitely lane 4!
A dream!!!
5 *** and another one as a bonus *

Reception of hotel and golf club very friendly and courteous!

--- demanding...

... the old course.

We already played here when there was only the Old - it was one of the first five that we played in South Germany - or the conveyor systems in the quarry lake on the New had not yet been dismantled.

We noted that it was wet, the floor was deep, and the rainwear was used several times.

The Old is one of the more difficult places in Germany, not only because of the length, the condition of the ground, the terrain and the trees that are sometimes involved ensure that.
Very dry conditions are necessary to get free meters. The course is well maintained and entertained, you can see something in the age, that is not negative. Some weaknesses that need the necessary attention have to be identified. We always liked the greens very well, not too hard, fast and on track. Today we missed the speed a bit.

The New has a completely different character - cannot hide the American design language. The InselGreen on hole 15 speaks for itself. We particularly like the holes around the quarry pond, the course in early summer especially when the rough is high - the contours are emphasized very well. Very well cared for.

The first InselGreen Herbert Strong (1880-1944) was built by a golf professional who built several courses - in Ponte Verda Beach in Florida.

We stayed here, not for the first time, can only judge the hotel and its clubhouse - very good. The dinner in the old barn is always an experience.

Great facility that gives pleasure, not all have awarded five stars, but it is enough.

Both places are in the top 100 of Germany, but have recently lost ground.

Great season ending in 2018

We played with 22 players on two days both places that are so different. Places are in top condition. The hotel with its location, the service, the room facilities and the value for money just great. It was a fitting completion of our 2018 season. We'll be back!

Tricky challenge

+ Very nice location, huge area, beautifully landscaped.
- Very few toilets, in the Old Cours only on hole 9 a ToiToi which was smeared feces... gruesome!!

do not forget bug spray -
- For guests is a very small area for landfilling of golf trolleys available.
Be renovated would showers in the women's guest Umziehräumen (carpeting and shower heads), a very large area -.

Too bad about this beautiful place

The Old Course is basically a very good, exciting place embedded in a beautiful landscape, in a beautiful forest.

I have the Old Course in 2015 2x played one (April and September). In April, the Greens were in a very poor condition. These are now - in September - again spotless.

From year to year, but takes care of the state, from the quality of the fairways. On the one hand there is growing "islands" with foreign grasses - they are probably not regularly ausgstochen and newly sown - and on the other hand, the density of the fairway is grassing which is steadily declining. A few days ago in September, the fairways were in many places flat, brown, no grass, so that our whole group in the evening said: Too bad for this good place. Will probably saved in the care team? It is positive that we can see that the T-boxes are partially redone.

I hope that this place recovered and care of state is again * to 2 raised to 1 *.

I am happy to pay 10 euros or 20 euros more, when space is then also correspondingly prepared.

A beautiful place

I was in the last 10 years, often in Bad Waldsee. A place for a long golf weekend is always a good choice.

This year I have the New Course 2 x played (April and September) and there is not much to complain about. The course is presented in a solid state. The foreign grasses on the fairways to take but also here and I think it is important that we in this respect now against tax and are these regularly removed. Too bad the bunker is not every day, in the morning, made. So you have to struggle with wild tracks partially.

Old Course

Did the Old Course played. The place is very beautiful from the complex with many interesting holes. He has beautiful trees and is well fitted into the environment. Unfortunately, the maintenance status is not as it should be. The trees and shrubs grow on the first 9 holes sometimes quite uncontrollably into the Drive-zones and the underbrush / weeds in the fairway edges is dense as jungle. It's nice to leave a place close to nature, but it should be better maintained so that it remains playable golf course.

Neat Golf Club with miserable Catering

Outdated ambience, and the boss of the restaurant is friendly only to members. Small, gammlige menu posted in the showcase. In addition, various guests were u of the hosts. Smoked in the restaurant. As the only guest in the restaurant, the boss / wife Benzing felt disturbed by my long phone call, and has berated me loudly and I was rauskomplimentiert. I will recommend you to my friends in Bad Waldsee and anyone around the club with such a modest catering.
Members only!! One star only because of the beautiful MANAGEMENT!!
I am very disappointed

Future I will rather visit the neighboring princely Club.

Hart to Hart

This place has it all. If you do not have a straight shot here you should take enough balls on the round.

Close Waldschneissen and a few water hazards make the beautiful parkland course into a real challenging round. Although the loss of the ball is higher than normal, you should absolutely have played this course. Pure variety and visually pleasing to the eye.

A place for all levels of play

Yesterday I was able to place in the TwoPlay (Golf Friends) play. In addition to attentive service, friendly and courteous, the secretary impresses the square through the generous proportions.

The course is undulating fairways and each has their quirks besides the good defended greens (were in great condition). Although we lost the game kanpp I'm from the design and maintenance thrilled and can only recommend it.

9-hole course FCG-Waldsee

I read thoroughly as returning the above reviews - and I can because - Connect only in part. But the 9-hole course in Waldsee is really a class of its own. After all, he has everything a golfer wants.

Those who still do not believe - also meant single digit handicapper - should play him once. Have fun. And... Score card not forget. I'm looking forward to a "feed-back".

... at its finest!

I recorded this spectacular development in the last year and I can only connect to the first assessment, I also think one of the most beautiful plants in Germany. Unfortunately I had too little time to really savor everything. The connection to the hotel is the icing on the cake for all golfers who want to stay. On my next trip through, I'm back on one of the squares.

Nine hole boring, nine hole ok

The first nine hole are boring, the second so-so.
An interesting island green. but overall the place is ok as a warm-up space for the adjacent lintel gc. Now is really the arrangement of the tracks here, the maintenance state, the landscape a poem. bah not like the other, a bit hilly. the princely space is nearly flat.
Fer princely rooms has no clubhouse, just a sterile restaurant and a hotel with simple, cold.
the club house of the gc lintel is cozy, down to earth,
inexpensive

Place great, management bad!

As an avid golfer with little time, it is of course great to find a golf course located in the immediate vicinity.
The large, relatively new facility, with your 18 hole is complemented by a smaller 9 hole course, where can also be played without handicap.

Unfortunately, every course and club is only as good as its management. This leaves more to be desired. Requests will not be processed, writing and disappear on the phone one is roughly slapped. Too bad, but not the first golf club in the playful arrogance by internal potential to be actually very good.

Www site is princely

I have just returned from the Princely Golfclub Bad Waldsee, where the WWW Prince (Prince of Waldburg Wolfegg and Waldsee) a fantastic place in the Upper Swabian countryside has built. Not only that, there are always dry or still water leading ditches or lakes, no, even a giant quarry with treacherous holes poses a great challenge to the players. If you can (s) knock off 150 meters away, you can safely use a cheap ball or other cucumber, because these are never seen again... Also an island green, it has to be mastered.
All in all, a super place. His old place, the so-called "Old Course" he has left his second club, GC Upper Swabia, which sprawls with its mature trees. This is the "New Course" of course not, but see above, he has other charms.
