Characteristics

Situated near the upper shores of Lake Zurich, this club represents a harmonious blend of sport and nature conservation. Originally established on a former gravel extraction site, the grounds were transformed into a challenging 18-hole championship course, significantly updated in 2018. The layout offers spectacular vistas of the Linthebene and the Glarner Alps. In addition to the main course, golfers can utilize a 9-hole Pitch & Putt for short game practice. The facility is renowned for its ecological standards, providing a biodiverse habitat alongside modern amenities and a panoramic restaurant.

Totally unacceptable!

Very good welcome from the staff who deliver the green fees.
Course still young but in very good condition.
On the other hand, the "ranger" who is normally in charge of enforcing the course times has allowed himself to make racist and discriminatory remarks towards the French that I am!
The golf management did not consider it useful to answer the email I sent them to inform them.

Challenge for people who have length but are wide

The state of the 18 hole course end of August is much better compared to the previous reviews.
If you are a player who can hit the balls straight, but does not necessarily have length: this place is for you.
If you have the length, but could use some forgiveness on the sides: this will be a challenge; you can lose your ball 1m from the fairway and there are many out-of-bounds next to the hole.
I am not so concerned about the 'blind holes': if you can read a golf course, you will have no problem.
The greens are great; they were soft and a bit slow, but they are perfectly smooth; so a good putter is rewarded.
The prices are in line with 'private' clubs in Switzerland: playing golf in Switzerland is always expensive if you don't go to 1 of the 'cheaper chain' courses.

...the location...

...is really great, about 150 meters above the Linth plain and Lake Zurich - which you often have in view. Great views and views of the mountains too. This system benefits greatly from this, it is also right...

The course is not quite as flat as described in the Albrecht Golf Guide, there are holes with moderate to decent terrain transitions, deeper or higher and also exposed greens.

Peter Harradine and Kurt Rossknecht have worked here, they have managed to create a good, exciting and varied course in the area - but not one of their best, in our opinion.

The course delivers back tees on average 345 meters per hole - par 3 rather short - we thought loosely on tee 1.

He's demanding if you want to bring his score into the clubhouse, you have to tactic. Long irons or small woods off the tee were often the better solution, making the second shot into the green more difficult. The driver was also allowed to work, but it wasn't worth it for everyone, because then the landing zones become narrow or bunkers lurk...
The maintenance also made sure that it was demanding...

During our visit we found a course with good maintenance - but far from very good or even top...
Some work is missing for the predicate very good, including the mowing cadence. The tees and fairways on the back nine were not freshly cut! Likewise, the mowing quality has led to questions and obstacles - also to a lot of conversation.

We hit a few bunkers, very well placed - on the fighting line - if the ball is not hit optimally, you end up in it. These do not receive top marks, the sand is very easy to play but also very fine - too fine. The player hardly manages to take a good stance, because the slightest movement of his foot literally causes it to flow away.
The "Road Hole Bunker" on Green 16 was "death" for a player

We really liked the greens, well not overly modeled - many fine brakes, and the speed was okay.

Good clubhouse with nice staff.

We didn't get bored on the course, we had a lot of fun and a lot of frustration...
Two went under, two went under...

We got a good stroke saver here, the display of the play line is very helpful - the best this year!

Five stars for the location - yes, four stars for the layout - yes, but the course maintenance only deserves three stars...
