Well maintained semi-private short course

Great little course which is not so easy for the lower handicaps. There's plenty of out of bounds if you are not hitting it straight.
Well manicured although could do with a lot more trees to make it more interesting.
The driving range and short game areas are very good and I've heard the Golf Pros/School too.
The restaurant last year was an absolute disaster but I've heard that there is new management in 2016 so that's a definite positive!
All in all a good course with reasonable prices for the area. It's not Migros and doesn't want to be either, that's another positive...

Nice place, fair and idyllic

I am a green fee player, 40 years old, handicap 10 and play a lot in the region.

Winterberg is a good course, where I always like to play 9 holes.

Reception:
Very nice and helpful.
Pro shop with the basics.
In summer occupied until evening, green fee can be solved at 7:00 p.m., great.

Clubhouse / Resti:
Good sanitary facilities, resti ok with a small terrace. Not great, but ok for a snack and a few drinks after your round.
I have not yet visited a larger restaurant with an outdoor area, it is open for tournaments and events and looks good from the outside.

Range / practice facilities:
Super. Very well-kept and versatile. Balls slowly reaching retirement age, but still ok.
Pros good and nice, only know one person and he is great (Callum).

Place:
Nice to play, quite easy if you know it, but just right for a relaxed round. Layout fair and sometimes really nice, a few "so-so" holes and not very long, but exactly suitable for the clientele.
Always full and yet always well cared for. Greenkeepers cannot eliminate pitch marks as well, as there is a problem here that not all players do that.
Greens generally rather slow, probably adapted to the skill level of the members (most of them in the handicap range 20-30), which is totally understandable.
Winter season only for club members on winter greens, range open without fee.

Prices:
Really ok for Zurich! I'm always happy that they are so fair here.

Conclusion:
Winterberg understood: there are several other places in the area, either private, semi-private or public. Winterberg has the best overall package, even if only 9 holes. I like to be here and recommend the place.

Outstanding

In comparison with many places very well maintained. Beautiful foresight, good air and excellent food in the restaurant. Friendly staff in club and gastro. Nine more holes would be nice!

That's fun

If you play, a beautiful piece of land. The course was in excellent condition, well maintained - this is obviously also placed on etiquette value. Have fun playing!

Entertaining and enjoyable

Even if the place and its tracks are rather short, but it offers mostly a varied golf experience. Each track has its own priorities, without that they would be too difficult. In a short but beautiful par 5 follows an interesting par 3 over the water, etc. .. It's fun to play as, especially as the plants are perfectly maintained. The Green Keeper are the true potential of the place.
The training facilities and the Golf Academy are exceptionally diverse for such a small place and very good.
Gastronomy is the only small weakness. One should not expect too much there. However, those who are satisfied with a small range, is the opinion not negative.
However, the green fee prices, particularly for club Free and foreign players are clearly inappropriate. That will probably deter many guests.

Insufficient price-performance

Beautiful but short course and Migros members still face discrimination - untenable! For what the place will bear much too expensive.
