Despite the label fraud, a great place
Reviewed September 12, 2023
Why label fraud? Because the place is a long way from Lake Constance and there is no lake view anywhere. And “a piece of Scotland” is also a slight exaggeration. I like playing links courses in Scotland and would attribute a maximum of 50% links attitude to this course here. On the one hand, the sea location is missing. But in my opinion, the course doesn't even qualify as a domestic links course. Only the pot bunkers can be compared to Scottish courses.
Then why 5 stars? I played the course (again) on 9/11/23. I find the layout of the individual lanes exciting and pleasantly balanced between fairness and challenge. At least for me with a higher HCP of 26.5.
The condition of the course was very good in every respect!
Both the reception and the teammates and members here on site were all very friendly and nice. I have not experienced any reservations towards guest players.
The price is reasonable for local conditions near Switzerland.
The landscape is beautiful; with a great view of the Hegau Mountains.
ME - especially if you combine this course with the "Schloss Langenstein" course next door - is definitely worth a golfing detour to this region.

Spacious
Reviewed May 9, 2022
Nice golf course with a spacious layout. No ball is lost - except on the second 9, when it goes down again.
The greens may look nice, but they don't stay on track and slow the ball down so much you can even hear it! Since you lose a lot of speed, the puts erupt uncontrollably and run as they will.
Very nice restaurant and terrace, good food!
Average place To my prescribers: Leave the church in the village!

Birdie Festival...
Reviewed June 4, 2021
..that is how the leader on the 18the green got to the point with his fifth. Everyone had to fish the flask in their pockets... several times...
A course that doesn't look so difficult when looking at the scorecard, the holes are on average less than 350 meters long - the four very short par 4 and two par 3 are responsible for this. The layout with the masterfully placed bunkers and the greens is convincing, in Terrain transitions that are moderate, convince - great designed. If the target golf is right, like today, there is plenty of birdie water. The two "final holes" punished us properly, only two in the team were able to record a birdie!
We are a team of four married couples and have been playing golf together for more than thirty years. This year's Lake Constance excursion took place without the ladies, which was a good thing because the "water" flowed abundantly. We have never seen this before, everyone underplayed today.
When we first visited in 1999, we were enthusiastic about the greenkeeping, the greens are great - and this is also the case today. Tour-Condition called it the leader, together with Lopesan Meloneras (Grand Canaria) the best we have played this year. Today, however, there are also negative points, which are essentially due to the "winter-spring". Holes 15,16 and 17 were wet and deep - the rest of them were good, some tees were not yet great.
We know half a dozen courses that Dave Thomas built - in Spain, France - including St. Leon Rot. It's a shame that it can't quite keep up. His absolute masterpiece is certainly Terre Blanche on the continent and The Belfry on British Island.
It is a good course with a great and challenging green aerea. The "pot bunker walls" need a good helping of attention - with the threshold bunkers and the rough meadows as rough, they are reminiscent of Scotland.
Not so playful in terms of play, it is physically good on foot, although four times a decent distance has to be walked.
Very nice staff and very good gastro - not lavish but fine. Thanks to being double vaccinated, we were able to enjoy it.
Yes, the northern holes have a moderate background noise, except when the hand throttle junkies swarm out.
Very solid four stars - just because of the greens.
Cold coffee should never be served...
This is our fifth time here, and we've never found a field here. We also registered that the conditions were not always the same, but they were okay. Mostly they are due to the weather conditions - as is the case today.

Not quite left and maintenance condition seen better
Reviewed April 26, 2021
Played in summer 2020:
The sky is gray, the fairway is rough, the rough is deep! Welcome to Steisslingen. Some of the first 9 holes are close to each other.
From the second 9 holes on the other side of the road, the course changes again and the fairways feel even longer and more water is added. All in all, however, not a highlight.
The space is partly like a field, but biologically valuable for the insects.
The staff is partly in a rather rough Scottish tone. A spectator followed our flight and constantly appeared near the tee to judge our drives. After several requests not to do this, the answer came, I am allowed to do so as a member here. When asked at the club secretariat, there was no better answer. It's a shame.
The restaurant in the clubhouse is highly recommended for this.

Club logo is misleading
Reviewed September 30, 2020
First of all: Lake Constance cannot be seen from any point!
If I hadn't played other courses in the neighborhood at the same time, the extremely bad fairways (larger damaged areas, hard, bumpy) could be blamed on dryness, but they were all much better!
This place has absolutely nothing to do with Scotland just because it has some interesting, deep bunkers.
Condition very different: sometimes plank edges, rarely (Scottish) sod edges, but often ingrown, unkempt grass edges!
Too much is being saved here!
The greens were ok and relatively quick.
Plus constant background noise from the motorway.
All in all disappointing.
Positive the extremely friendly lady at the reception and on the phone.

Golf like in Scotland
Reviewed July 6, 2020
The place is the "best" because I've been allowed to play so far.
Therefore 5 stars.
It is built up like a place in Scotland.
Deep bunkers. Water hazards. Lush fairways. Great greens.
Varied and challenging.
Beautiful landscape on Lake Constance.
Friendly welcome. Great restaurant with a terrace (view of Green 18).
Maintained top. Praise to the team of greenkeepers.
Since I am at Lake Constance at least once a year, I definitely plan a day at GC Steisslingen.

Beautiful golf course with Scottish ambience, especially because of the rather unusual deep pot bunker in Germany.
The course is varied and always fun to play. Recommended.

Good for the place - but...
Reviewed August 21, 2018
Played the course on the 20th and 21.8 and are repeat offenders - we found the Scottish-inspired course with the strategically very well placed, plentiful bunkers already very interesting on our first two visits ... - already have a tournament there in very much nice accompaniment played...
The course was in good condition, given the very hot temperatures of recent times, especially the very good running greens with little pitch marks are positive.
We really enjoyed the round on Monday and were very nicely received in the secretariat - including overnight tips.
Tuesdays we played again early in the morning - are extra driven because of the place on Lake Constance. We had a lot of fun, because there was little going on and the place really good mood, because of the very varied tracks, which also open a couple of times and birdie chances a medium handicap.. yes, even very demanding tracks, but that's what makes the charm out...
Unfortunately, one of the greenkeepers was very annoyed by our golf game, since we are probably not very talented in his view and have disproportionately often hit the fresh bunkers (all our tracks we have redeemed - mind you) -> (The bunkers were on Mondays even not done and Tuesday on the back-Nine either - no problem for us - just wanted to mention it because of the anger's on the first 9 on Tuesday) ... In any case, we found it very irritating that the Lord repeated his Displeasure has made known - From our point of view, we could still bear that he makes fun of it - was possibly not a real achievement - but that he strongly acidified comments and spoiled our mood is unacceptable. In our view, it is like this: "If we could golf without meeting bunkers, we would not play in Steißlingen but on the PGA Tour ...!"
The bottom of the barrel but knocked out, that one of the greenkeepers us around with the cart and has checked behind us, whether our dog has not left anything unlawful (a) we always do everything b) she peed only c) outside the golf course on a green strip between two WAYS !!!).
It hardly seems worth mentioning that there were no towels and the golf course users had to blow dry.
Kitchen remodeling and no food is there to understand the most.
Overall, it is a pity that a holiday weekend that was planned because of the previously optimal golf club around this is now negatively occupied and leaves the feeling that in the future golf vacations should probably take place in other places.
Too bad that the high quality of the past year could not be maintained, as well as the newly created and great-looking terrace does not comfort it.

Full green fee for sanded place
Reviewed November 18, 2017
Full green fee for a freshly sanded place - an absolute impudence.
Actually, I like to play the course because nice - but if I had known the course conditions before (practically unplayable), I would not even have played for half green fee.
I prefer to do my bunker training on the practice grounds rather than on the fairway...

Rude reception
Reviewed October 5, 2017
On Monday 02.10. we wanted to (foreign) golf in Steisslingen. The receptionist made such an insurrection, because I had forgotten my golf card. So something of unfriendly is so far never happened in a golf club. I'm on the golf course right after work and have left the card at home. Can happen every time, but no I have clearly felt that it must by no means happen. I think she was just too lazy to enter the data by hand, but the way is simply no go!!!

Very nice, sophisticated and well-kept place / Overall great facility
Reviewed July 30, 2017
Very nice, spacious and well maintained golf course (18 holes, driving range and clubhouse / restaurant).
Very well maintained Fairways, Roughs and Greens with well-designed obstacles (water and very good, sometimes quite big sandbunker). Varied holes, which lead through a very beautiful landscape and the play on any of the 18 holes (partly quite long) do not get boring. Also on the edge of the railways great value is placed on details, so there are some discounts and partly along the tracks beautiful sunflower and colorful flower fields. Compliment, very sympathetic and beautiful for the eye.
The reception in the club house (pro shop and payment of the green fee) was very friendly and professional as well as the end in the 19th hole / restaurant was class. Very friendly, fast service and very good food.
Conclusion: We will definitely be back soon!

Excellent place with great greens
Reviewed September 17, 2016
I played the course on Thursday 15 September 2016th The lady at the pro shop was friendly and courteous. The infrastructure in and next to the clubhouse is good. in my view, is characterized by the good training infrastructure with generous driving range, a large chipping green with bunkers all around and as good a putting green. The place is at the time of my visit of the tee boxes to the greens in good maintenance condition. The greens I judge as very good and relatively quickly. The fairways are varied, relatively long and often defended with strategically placed obstacles, and the greens are mostly undulating and provided with partly strong tendencies - it's fun to play this course! The course is situated in a beautiful and peaceful landscape and is designed generously due to space constraints. I'll gladly come back. The green fee is definitely worth it.

Medium weight, more open-looking place with stunning views of the West Lake landscape. Railways not so varied, but some interesting 'harassment' and changing degrees of difficulty here. Warm welcome, excellent clubhouse with a very good restaurant. Overall, a trip and a round of golf value.

Beautiful place, but...
Reviewed March 16, 2015
We have the space at 14.3. played because we jumped as old Scotland fans to advertising and as already could be played on summer greens. Although very interesting layout, some nice bunker there are also, however, Scottish feeling did not arise. What annoyed us that in the lush -and afterwards to high-Wochenendgreefee the white reductions were partially inserted in red. If already full green fee, please also for the whole length. This has very delicious food in the clubhouse and at least getrötestet something.
