Place to forget, Saturday 7.09.2024
Reviewed September 8, 2024
We were looking forward to playing on a well-maintained course but the opposite happened.
The fairways were unkempt and overgrown with top-quality grass. Fairway shots could not be executed optimally. Balls did not roll on the greens because the cut was too high.
All in all, the price/performance ratio is far from right.

Beautifully landscaped space
Reviewed August 17, 2024
Very nicely laid out course with very old trees. Green fee is now at the upper limit. What we didn't like at all is the generally poor condition of the course: the tee area is sometimes very bad with lots of weeds and bare patches. The greens could also be better. The bunkers, on the other hand, were good. Good pro shop and restaurant

Basically a beautiful golf course. 🥰 At the moment, unfortunately, very bad fairways and the greens leave a lot to be desired...

... this Campo is listed at the top, we still have the same view, that fits to a certain extent, but has a different ranking.
You have worked a lot on this campo in recent years, and the bunker master plan has now been completed. The work took three years and was mainly done in the winter months. The two Ticino clubs - Ascona and Lugano - have filled in over 60 bunkers in recent years. Now you can find many small hills in their place, on the fairways they have planted trees on them.
Yes, bunkers cost a lot of money to maintain and maintain - very time-consuming.
A short excursion into the history of the bunker.
The bunkers in Scotland were more or less naturally formed. The wind drove the sand over the dunes and in the lee it fell to the bottom. The animals have sought shelter in the slipstream of the dunes and thus made sure that nothing can grow here.
Care and maintenance are good, were satisfied. We think all campos in Ticino benefited from the not so hot and dry summer, even if some of them received too much water.
What we complain about with this course - always - is the very different vegetation on the playing ground.
Clubhouse very good, staff very friendly and attentive.
Nobody gave five stars, everyone was for four.

No relation to the price
Reviewed October 11, 2020
I can understand that you can only play 9 holes because of wetness, but that you are not informed when you make your reservation, not.
That's one thing, the other for a green fee, for 9 holes CHF 80 is useless for the course, cart is not necessary because it is flat, but if you would need one for medical reasons, CHF 100 is already close to???
To the place itself, tea boxes average, partly uneven. Fairway badly mowed and very overgrown, or no grass at all. Bunkers were apparently built up to reduce costs, which is incomprehensible with so little water. Greens are slow and the ball doesn't always slip on the line, even slightly undulating.
Hole 19 / restaurant is nothing special either, terrace would still be nice, but the service, you wait a long time.
A round of golf where you don't need it.

Super nice old place
Reviewed August 23, 2020
... when I read the old reviews, I am of the opinion that Ascona was "renovated" (?) in the Corona year!
The bunkers were immaculately filled with reddish sand when we visited. The greens and fairways maintained and the age-old design in the middle of the pine / pine park was great! Many holes with high memorable value. There is also a sundowner (from 4.00 p.m. - 80CHF), which is used extremely, the place was full in the evening! For me the only Swiss golf course so far where the price-performance ratio was perfect! We were all 4 thrilled!
Hdcp. 6/10/12/33, so everything is included :-)!
I would play this course again at any time (as the only one of the 3 courses in Ticino)!

Price-performance
Reviewed March 7, 2020
Actually a nice place in beautiful Ticino and I also have a lot of understanding since it is only the beginning of March. But hardly a hole that is not being built (covered bunkers, etc.), including 2 with winter greens. A price reduction would certainly be appropriate.

Reviewed August 3, 2019
... is this place listed, we think that fits conditionally, we have a different order.
We have been here many times and put our teas in the ground, for the first time in 1994, on the journey to the south - France or Italy.
The club and the Campo has a turbulent history - founded in 1928. At the beginning 18 holes were planned but not all built, first 4 later extended to 9 and in the fifties the last 9 holes.
It is a good and beautiful place that lives mainly from the old trees and the proximity to the lake - but for us too high rated.
They've been working on this campo over and over again in recent years, water is now more often in the game, now they work on the bunkers.
We do not classify this course as sporty-demanding, the holes are not so long and the terrain is flat. If the ball manages to keep the ball on the fairway and the ground is not too wet, these holes will play loose.
Care and maintenance are fine, were not satisfied with all. This has given rise to discussions on almost every visit.
No one was for five stars, the lot decided three or four stars. Some things do not match.

Beautiful golf experience

Well-kept fairways and track-consistent greens. The staff very friendly, wonderful old trees a noble Parkland Cours.
Place can be played well on foot, because very flat.
With a knee injury I could not go 18-hole and made me a cart, SFR. 100.00 I find massively overpriced.

Reviewed October 1, 2017
I am always amazed that there are many reviews that make the price so central!
We played the course at the beginning of October 2016 in bright sunshine! The layout of the course is a classic parkland course so all the courses are framed by tall trees. In addition, the plant diversity on the square is impressive.
The panorama is breathtakingly beautiful and also the condition of the place was absolutely top!
Conclusion: We liked the place.

Unerschämt expensive...
Reviewed April 27, 2017
To put it politely absolutely unkempt for this in June 2016 course. Also, the layout has not impressed me. If you've played three holes one knows the whole place. Most interesting are still the PAR 3 holes. Green fee during the week about € 120, - for the golf cart they wanted once € 100, - extra. However, in this absolutely flat terrain no Cart is necessary.

Price-performance ratio is not right here, probably too little competition in the near vicinity.

Very good service, boring place
Reviewed October 24, 2012
I have played this course yesterday for the first time. I had heard and read a lot before. The reception class, very friendly and service oriented. A great welcome at the counter. Good introduction to the local conditions of Drvingrange, putting and chipping green bishin to the tees. The caddy master mounted the bags on the trolley. Yardage Book Included, elegant boutique has what. Now to the place: very geplegte tees, fairways and greens. It did not diminish when the spile was also working on some tracks. Overall, the parkland course 18 times, no special obstacles that Faiwaybunker is boring well playable, only "bigger" challenge is the 8 where it once about a "Wässerchern" goes. The other two "water hazards" are so that you can always come to the fairway with an iron. Conclusion: I've played him to be a player, in the area there are good courses. My Austrian player in flight, himself 77 years old said: "A place for old people." Nevertheless, because of the whole atmosphere and the service good score.

Golf Course hui, restaurant - well
Reviewed August 8, 2012
A beautiful place, well maintained and quite selectively off the fairways;
Very competent and friendly staff in the Secretariat, and proshop, as the Greenkeeping;
Also thrive on good traffic days, start times are set wise (not enough distance for the purpose of profit maximization as many places otherwise).
only weak spot is the restaurant. the easy to use and has little structure is overwhelmed with good visit, a nonsensical separation in food and drink + snack area with adjacent areas matic repeatedly creates unpleasant discussions of the restaurant conductor with you guests. this looks more gorgeous than even kundenorientert and partly downright surly towards guests. shame about this weakness that just the golf hospitable especially negative attention in the relaxation and the image of an otherwise excellent clubs tarnish.

Fantastic place, nestled in a landscaped parkland.
Directly on Lake great look.
Long fairways, well-defined, require a healthy balance between distance and accuracy.
