Poor condition
Reviewed August 25, 2017
Played course before and found it lovely. This summer the greens were appalling, tee boxes overgrown and fairways inconsistent. Buggy hire overpriced, 50 euros per round. No advise received regarding condition and no green fee reduction offered. Never again. Hotel good but expensive drinks.

A nice change in the forest
Reviewed October 2, 2024
About 3 km before the golf course, you pass the training grounds of Internazionale di Milano on the approach. You could also mistake this for the entrance, but you have not yet reached your destination.
The course itself is located in the forest and is easy to walk for sporty golfers. The path from green 9 to tee 10 is longer. The 2nd nine are much more modern and flatter than the front ones.
The location in the forest means that many tees have too little grass. This also applies to some fairways. This did not bother us. The many damages caused by wild boars should not go unmentioned.
The greens are relatively small, but in good condition and true to the course. Water only comes into play on hole 10.

Varied and exciting
Reviewed September 13, 2024
Place:
Very varied layout of holes in a wooded, hilly area. We were able to start just ahead of a larger group and finished the course in 3:10 as a pair. Wonderful!
Condition:
The fairways and greens were mostly in very good condition. The grass was left a little too long, so that the very wet ground made it almost impossible for the balls to roll. The bunkers were hard after heavy rainfall and some were still filled with water - but the greenkeepers were out with pumps to make them playable again. Only the tees looked a little overgrown in places, but they were still playable.
Staff:
Friendly, efficient. Only one of the greenkeepers was annoying because he "accompanied" us on holes 2-8 and started mowing the tee boxes just as we were teeing off.
Restaurant:
Also friendly and efficient - and good. Very pleasant location on the terrace and under the trees. Price is OK.
Generally:
For €80 on weekdays, it's good value for money. The last few kilometers of the journey are a bit adventurous, but no problem. Watch out for thieves! Don't leave any trolleys on the edge of the fairway. The adjacent forest is a popular hiding place for thieves...

Always worth a trip
Reviewed November 9, 2021
Golf Pinetina with its hotel on the golf course as well as its arrangements with the combination of different golf courses in the region is great. The golf courses in the region are all good. To be emphasized is the complex of Villa D`Este. Great to play even in November when the temperatures are mostly pleasant.

Big room. Was thoroughly cleaned every day and fresh bath towels attached. Great golf course with attractive green fees.
In the restaurant friendly service. The food you could also order extras.
The small but tasteful hotel is really to relax.

Shady parking under pine trees.
Very friendly secretary, good range, fantastic place, a bit hilly, but good to go.
Interesting, fair tracks.
Very good greenkeeping, you can see that the plant is constantly being invested.
Well maintained clubhouse, good food.
Fair price.

IMHO a dream place...
Reviewed October 10, 2016
I find the place fantastically beautiful, everything very well kept...
The height differences, I can say very little negative, I am not expect anything else from home territory of our clubs and their topography in the Alps.
A very good and reasonably priced, though not quite cheap pleasure, the restaurant is - Saturdays there probably always buffet. Very, very tasty! Tip the nice hotel room with a view on the 1 and partly. the 18
The only downer: The signage is hardly or not available, not even Google Maps found the directions right the first time. And otherwise is rather little around... Except commanded nature.

Golfoase the pinewood
Reviewed September 20, 2016
Beautiful, well-kept, quiet golf course surrounded by pine forest. Although only a larger water hazard but can still golf technically interesting and challenging. Fine cuisine, friendly and helpful staff. The green fee is not cheap, but worth the money. Getting to the golf course was a bit confusing as one long easy runs through the forest and confirm a no further signs the fact certainly still be on the right track.

Disappointment
Reviewed August 30, 2016
We play for many years in Pinetina and were disappointed this summer for the first time. Tee boxes partially overgrown, fairways provided with indefinable grasses and greens infested by weeds...
It has made it appear as if the money for the care starts - very unfortunate.
2 beers and two soft drinks for € 21 are too expensive green fee of 70 € (Monday) was (were) in order.

Great Place
Reviewed February 4, 2016
The golf course is without navigation almost impossible to find. It lacks signs. The course is in good condition, stamina he demands a lot from. The staff in the Secretariat is very friendly. We come in all seasons always come back happy.

Sympathetic
Reviewed July 9, 2015
In addition to a warm welcome (not in all clubs around, of course ...) is the place in good condition. Especially on hot days Pinetina is recommended, as it can often play in the cooling shade.
The approach leads to the conclusion through the woods... so do not turn around, you have not lost!

Hard to find
Reviewed May 15, 2015
After we had, wound through forest and landscape, had almost given up, we came into a paradise. the place, the staff, the ambience wonderful. Just as all my predecessors wrote, the kitchen is no longer available in the afternoon. However, the place is worth to be played. Downer are the prices that have now adapted to the Swiss level, for example, beer 4, - Euro and otherwise not cheap, green fees 120, - Euro on Saturday Cart 40, - Euro.
When we come back, so only a week.

Kitchen closed
Reviewed May 1, 2015
A wonderful place, the tracks wind their way through the forest. Each lane is on its own, not "Fore" necessary. There are always small differences in height to be overcome, it is in demand condition.
Caution: The kitchen closes at 14:30. In the afternoon, there's nothing to eat!

Good place
Reviewed January 5, 2014
Very good place, which is located in a wooded area! Maintained top and quite heavy!
The site is located behind the training ground of Inter Milan and is certainly one of the top ten in Milano!

Idyllic location, but challenging
Reviewed October 18, 2013
Beautiful in nature embedded space. Hilly course, like a mountain golf course. 6 holes with massive elevation changes. Neither mowed fairways still Roghs (rain days earlier?), But the greens well; otherwise seems to be a neat place. Interesting, but very challenging.
Disappointing: Tuesday closed; weekly green fee (18 holes) 70 EUR -. Both contrary to the above information.
