Characteristics
The golf and landscape park reflects the pure unadultered character of the region Fränkische Schweiz with its rural mosaic of groups of rocks, dry grassland, forests and hedges. One of the most interesting holes is the number 1. The hole runs around a forest and there is a doline directly in front of the green which can only be played across with a long fairway club. Thus, a question arises: Play it safe or take the risk?

Very idiosyncratic pricing model
2.0 of 5 starsReviewed October 18, 2024
We recently played this course. Our impression of the course was overshadowed by the price structure and the sometimes bizarre arguments used to justify it. The course is OK, the greens were fast, the tee boxes were not very even in places, and the fairways were not mown short enough when we visited. However, the price expectations spoiled our experience. We came with a 2-1 voucher and were then asked to pay a green fee of 85 euros on weekdays, which is the regular green fee, according to the secretary. Golfers with an R mark on their club card, which we have, only have to pay 65 euros. However, the 2-1 voucher costs a higher amount, as the rate with an R mark already represents a discount and 2 discounts are not possible - this argument is, with all due respect, cheeky! The Golf Guide 24 also states a green fee of 65 euros WT. One gets the impression that they want to attract golfers to the course with 2-1 vouchers and then simply increase the price base to maximize revenue. Very annoying, for us this was the first and last visit here!

Dear guest, our green fee prices are clearly visible in the price list published on the Internet and in the Albrecht Golf Guide, at €85 without an "R" marking or 2:1 and are discounted to €65/€75… More
Dear guest, our green fee prices are clearly visible in the price list published on the Internet and in the Albrecht Golf Guide, at €85 without an "R" marking or 2:1 and are discounted to €65/€75 with an "R" marking. Double discounts are not possible.
It is also pointless to try to extort a desired price by making multiple, extremely rude visits to the office and threatening to give a bad rating. Your criticism also seems strange when you look at the newspaper reports from the championship that took place immediately before.
Outstanding golf course in Pottenstein at the German Team Championships AK18 Boys
The German team championships for the 18-year-old boys in Pottenstein were not only a sporting highlight, but also an event that will be particularly remembered thanks to the outstanding golf course. Pottenstein Golf Club provided the perfect stage for the prestigious tournament and impressed players and spectators alike with its unique design and scenic beauty.
As soon as you entered the course, it quickly became clear that Pottenstein is something special. Nestled in the picturesque Franconian Switzerland, the course presented itself with a mixture of rolling hills, dense forests and wide fairways that were not only visually impressive, but also presented the highest golfing demands. The demanding course demanded everything from the young players: tactical skill, precise shots and a clever game strategy. The differences in altitude on the courses in particular provided additional challenges that made the competition even more exciting.
Each hole was designed to offer players new challenges. The greens in particular required the utmost concentration - with their subtle slopes and fast surfaces, they required the utmost sensitivity even from the best putters in the tournament. But the real appeal of the course lay in its versatility: from risky drives to narrow fairways to cleverly placed bunkers that mercilessly punished every mistake, Pottenstein offered everything that makes a golfer's heart beat faster.
Despite these challenges, the players praised the course highly. It was not just the level of difficulty that made the Pottenstein Golf Club stand out, but also the outstanding care of the course. The fairways were in impeccable condition, the rough was dense but fair to play, and the greens were lightning fast and precise. The attention to detail and the care with which the course was prepared testified to the high level of professionalism of the venue.
But Pottenstein was not only a pleasure from a playing perspective. The view of the surrounding landscape from various courses gave the tournament a special atmosphere. The picturesque backdrop of Franconian Switzerland with its rock formations and green valleys made the game an experience that went far beyond pure competition. Many players and coaches agreed that Pottenstein is one of the most beautiful courses in Germany and represents a special challenge that the participants will remember for a long time.
The unique combination of scenic beauty and golfing standards made the Pottenstein Golf Club the secret star of the championships. The course ensured that every shot was well considered and rewarded those who were willing to take the risk. At the same time, it also offered moments of enjoyment and relaxation - exactly what a first-class golf course should do.
Overall, the Pottenstein Golf Club contributed significantly to the success of the German AK18 Boys Team Championships. The players had the opportunity to demonstrate their skills on one of the most demanding and beautiful courses in the country, and the audience experienced first-hand how challenging and fascinating golf can be. Pottenstein has once again proven itself as a venue for high-class tournaments and is likely to continue to play an important role in German golf in the future.

Absolutely gaming value
5.0 of 5 starsReviewed July 4, 2024
Great place in Franconian Switzerland. Many visual highlights, for example with the rocks typical of the area. Long par 3, long par 5 lanes are challenging. Gastro and Secretariat are great.

5.0 of 5 starsReviewed July 4, 2024
An exceptionally beautiful golf course set in the hilly landscape. The courses are very varied. The condition of the entire facility was also exemplary! It is therefore worth a longer stay in this great facility, especially if you are travelling in a motorhome like us. Very nice view of the surrounding area.
We would definitely like to come back.
