Quite a good green golf course
Reviewed October 23, 2023
Quite a good golf course. Quiet, very green, surrounded by forests. Hilly.
Fairly wide fairways.
Elevated landscaped greens. Many greens cannot be seen. And well defended by bunkers. Also sometimes has water hazards.
Not very difficult.
Occasionally you can see the Syburg.
Good clubhouse with a nice view of some of the holes.

Very well-kept place in a beautiful landscape
Reviewed August 7, 2022
The Dortmund Golf Club has a gently undulating course that can be easily mastered on foot. The fairways are framed by mature trees and are quite wide, so that mistakes on the tee are forgiving, especially since the rough is also mowed short. The condition is extremely good, the mostly large and undulating greens are well maintained, fast and stay on track. In terms of layout, the course has a lot of straight lanes, some water hazards and bunkers, which can usually be avoided. A pronounced strategic game is therefore usually not necessary, only the precise approach of the greens influences the score. In addition to the always very beautiful surrounding landscape with a view of the Hohensyburg, I remember lane 3, a par 3, which was designed to be visually very challenging, and lane 5 with a slight dogleg and a very nice water hazard.
More hanging fairways come into play on the second 9 holes, so shots must be placed well. Here I particularly liked hole 14 with a slight dogleg and strategically well-placed bunkers, here you can think carefully about the risk you want to take on the tee in order to shorten the line to the green. The reception in the secretariat was very friendly and the service in the restaurant was also very good. The beautiful view from the terrace over three fairways and the Hohensyburg in the distance made for a nice conclusion. Overall, for a relaxing round on a very well-kept course for €60 green fee, absolutely recommendable.

Nice place with old trees
Reviewed September 24, 2020
A very nicely laid out golf course with sufficient practice opportunities. Unfortunately, the fairways were not so easy to play on due to extreme drought and game damage, but they were. Greens in very good condition. Overall, an interesting place with a beautiful clubhouse that you should definitely visit after the round. Before the round, we were granted a green fee discount for game damage, which is called customer service

Solid place in the pot
Reviewed September 17, 2020
Played on September 16,2020. The slightly hilly (cart not required for normal sporty) 18-hole course is located north of Hagen and south of Dortmund and can be reached quickly via the A45. The complex is framed by forest and high trees and is located in absolute peace and nature a little in a valley as one might not necessarily expect from the name of the club. Sometimes you have beautiful views of some villas and the tower of the Hohensyburg ruins. Despite the ingrown trees, I would not speak of a parkland course, as most of the tees are very open and the fairways are wide. So even higher HC should have a fair chance and fun. From my point of view, the first 9 lanes are a bit more varied and interesting than the back nine. Lane 3 (PAR3) is certainly very interesting and from the elevated tee 4 you have a great view over the facility to the clubhouse. There are a few water hazards (including herons) and above all well-placed bunkers. It is surely only a snapshot, but the condition of the fairways with many bare and uneven spots, an extremely large amount of ground in repair to whole areas that were probably completely dug up by wild boars, was not really good. In addition, the first fairway was not mowed and I was downright shocked by the condition (field), which then got better on the following fairways but cannot be rated as good overall. Much better were the greens, which were very neat and fast. If the members were to improve their pitch marks, this would be perfect. At the moment, tee times are assigned separately for tee 1 and tee 10, which guests can view online but not book. In general, guests without a member can only play on weekdays, even if you can see that there are enough tee times available on the weekend. It is best for guests to book a start time by telephone. Although the members are apparently not so specific about the start times. At least in my game there were no players at the tee at the booked times. So I was able to go on the lap a little earlier and on my own, without waiting. The game on a sunny Wednesday morning was rather subtle, around noon it was a bit more. The members I met greeted friendly. The current green fee of € 60 on weekdays would be appropriate if the condition of the fairways were better. So it is currently a bit too high. The otherwise very friendly lady at the counter gave no indication of the rather semi-optimal condition either when making the reservation or before my game. For golfers with restricted playing rights, a surcharge of € 20 is applied according to the price list. Although I don't have a gold hologram on the ID card, I didn't have to pay the surcharge. I can't say whether this was a coincidence, because I didn't have to show my ID, or a discount due to the current state of the space. The club offers a very affordable sundowner rate from 5:30 p.m. on weekdays and € 40 on weekends. However, this is of no use at the WE if you don't come to the square as a guest. The clubhouse is more functional with an attached restaurant (not tested). The secretariat has just moved to the lower floor, where the sanitary rooms are. Basically, a round in one of the oldest golf clubs in North Rhine-Westphalia can be recommended if the condition of the fairways is better again at some point.

Highly recommended
Reviewed May 17, 2019
Have (Hdc 8.8) on 16.5.19 the place for a tournament preparation played. Already in the parking lot I was greeted nicely by all those who approached. The staff in the golf office were also extremely helpful and friendly.
I then easily connected to a nice member for 18 holes. The course is beautifully landscaped and offers varied fairways. The condition was very good in all areas. Here I would like to highlight the greens. The greenkeepers are doing a very good job here. I have not regretted the visit to the restaurant. Great food from an ambitious young chef, as well as a very friendly young lady in the service. So should be a golf day and golf club. I'll be back.

Golf a la carte
Reviewed January 20, 2018
Hello! No matter what season you play in the DOGC, everything on the pitch is always in perfect condition!
The greenkeeper do a great job, chapeau!
I have played the place several times, it was always a leisure time extra class. I have only experienced nice and polite members in the DOGC (in contrast to many other GC)!
all staff are always very friendly and accommodating, whether at the counter, on the phone, etc.!
conclusion: the entire complex is more than just a golf course more of a work of art and man!

Great place and all around friendliness
Reviewed January 13, 2018
I would like to meet the negative reviews so far.
The very friendly telephone impression was again confirmed in personal contact. Two flights allowed me to play through without any problems and both times came to a pleasant short conversation.
The course itself was for the season (January) in a top condition and well maintained.
Thank you, dear people in the Dortmund GC and keep it up!!

; Not only arrogant but naughty
Reviewed April 4, 2017
The assessment from 10/03/2016 I can only share.
On Sunday a 2er is behind us, which simply enforces the right of way. Before us another 4p. We were horrified by so much audacity. One should not allow more guests, then the members can keep to themselves.

No Fun - arrogant members
Reviewed October 3, 2016
We played the course over the weekend and had some fun. The place is well integrated, care condition was ok. What we have then experienced was to wean Golf.
We played on Sunday morning and it was of course quite crowded in the square. Some 4p Flight started sequentially and we had behind us who accosted us bad a number 2 Flight 2 female members of the older generation, why we do not play faster. I'll spare the details! Wenn's had not been so sad, we could have laugh limp or searched for the hidden camera. Golf turnoff! Guests not welcome. Unfortunately all very cocky and you prefer to stay in Dortmund Golf Club among themselves. With pleasure!!! We certainly do not come back.
Ps: green fee € 80

Very nice and neat place
Reviewed August 16, 2016
Probably also the age of the place has to do with the fact that it affects so beautifully integrated into the landscape. Moreover impressed the old trees. Excellent value tees, fairways and greens make the game for fun, although some greens are real challenges. Only on the tracks 12-16 can hear the nearby highway extending in some cases very significantly, which is why I forgive not 5 star.
Excluding in Review: friendly and helpful reception at the club, good food, terrace with great views.
Conclusion: If you're near one should play the place of 'DOGC'.

The oldest Dortmund Golf Club
Reviewed June 20, 2014
Very nice facility in the south of Dortmund (designed by Bernhard von Limburger). The place is very well maintained (as of June 2014). Price / performance ratio OK, top round in the evening.
Weekend with member or inquire beforehand by telephone.
