Beautiful
Reviewed July 14, 2022
I really liked the place, beautifully situated in the mountains, sheep and deer gates next door, quiet, fresh air, beautiful tracks. The lady in the secretariat in the morning was in a very good mood, friendly and helpful.
The brevity of the place can be seen in the description. From hole 1 to tee 2 it is very steep uphill, but that's about it. The rest is easy to manage with an e-trolley without getting out of breath - I'm normally (un)athletic.
Yes, you don't always see exactly where the ball should be, but who cares? That's what makes it exciting. The tracks themselves are varied and fun to play, each has its own charm. Lane 6 is a nice challenge with the biotope "in the middle of the way", two deer watched me briefly at the green. Something beautiful like this is remembered.
Of course there were also turnovers. But honestly, there are always times and warned by the previous reviews, I only played with lake balls, so that I can get over the three balls in the biotope on 18 holes.
The expectations and demands on a golf course are very different. I fell in love with this place.

Unfortunately a little over the target
Reviewed October 13, 2021
First of all - I usually really have a soft spot for target golf requiring "funky" course designs outside of the usual mainstream. This place is certainly one of them, but here, in my opinion, it has been exaggerated.
Except for a really challenging par 5, only relatively short holes with constantly sloping fairways and greens, so that even properly hit balls disappear without a trace in the numerous biotopes. There are only such, no hard rough, hardly any semi-rough.
Lane 1 30 meters difference in altitude uphill, then another 50 meters up, then 7 lanes up on a plateau, and the "signature hole", the 9, is a joke in my eyes.
Short par 3 safe 25 meters downhill, below a small green and a pond, hidden from view from the tee. You hit half a gap wedge into nowhere, and when you get down there is a ball, or maybe not.
A golf course was laid out with a crowbar, where no one would actually fit.
In the end it is a nice mountain hike with occasional golf games.
No infrastructure such as toilet or water dispenser on the square.
Do I now advise against trying it out? No, definitely not. Everyone should make up their own mind and then judge.
I would recommend a lightweight half-set carry bag. Drivers and long woods make little sense. It's not fun with the trolley, there is hardly any level place, the load is always in danger of tipping over, which has happened a few times.
The friendliness of the staff and the players present and the quality of the gastronomy are very positive.
From a golfing point of view, this is unfortunately no longer average, the third star is benevolent for the proper course maintenance, the good environment and the extremely fair green fee.

The hole 9
Reviewed June 4, 2021
... Compensates for a lot.
A nice short course that you have to play very precisely so as not to lose too many balls in the biotopes
Very friendly secretariat
Very relaxed vacation round

Idyllic place
Reviewed June 13, 2019
Nice, small par 64 golf course with sometimes very short lanes.
ZB. Hole 2 a par 4 from the men's tee 225 m long. Therefore only 3 stars, because the place is very short and the greens were unfortunately extremely slow.
Otherwise the course is in a beautiful landscape, is well maintained, the most interesting was fairway 6, the only par 5 and also the most difficult hole.
Many biotopes with beautiful flower meadows characterize the place.
Nice secretariat!

Condition is required
Reviewed December 31, 2013
Guests at the Post Hotel we have of course played on this course. If you want to manage the place on foot, you should already have a bit of fitness. But there is finally E-trolleys. However, the condition of the course was perfect.

Pretty exhausting
Reviewed September 12, 2012
As the title should express: the place is beautiful, but quite tiring. At least if you take it with carry bag for 18 holes.
The climb to the first Green and on to the second Tee has it all. There then you have to catch only once. The tracks are nicely laid out and well maintained. Dominant is the variety of habitats that are almost always in the line of play. This takes balls.
At almost all paths one has a very nice view to the Achensee and the mountain panorama.
It pays to play the course - but the best with E-Cart.
