A Difficult Inland Links Not For The Fainthearted.

Like the other reviews state... you need to bring your A game to the Faldo Platz. It is a serious course, well designed inland links style, and you need to be accurate in order to stay out of the bunkers and enjoy the day.

The Palmer course is parkland and a lot easier on your body & soul. A pleasant parkland design where you can shape your ball around the lush trees. A must visit course even if it's just for the reference point of how tough a serious golf course can be.

Names are smoke and mirrors

3 courses that are relatively similar, for a decent green fee (week €70, weekend €80). The condition of the green fee is appropriate. However, the whole thing becomes a snap with golfamore. However, the facility is nothing special. It's just the big names that are special.
The women's tee markers were annoying. So blue used to be ahead of red. So suddenly there were black markdowns without a rating.
The complex still has a bit of a dilapidated 'charm' about it. There were tufts of grass in the bunkers, blocked toilets and collapsed bridges. The cleaning of the sanitary facilities was overwhelmed by the rush. However, the towel size is positive.

Palmers:
The first 9 are relatively boring compared to the second 9, which are actually really nice.

Eby:
Enjoyable to play. The last holes, including the forest holes, are worth highlighting.

Faldo:
Be extremely straight and relatively long and you could have friends as long as you are alone on the course. Otherwise you will be held up by searching fore-flights, as the clutter on the left and right of the fairway is extreme and has nothing to do with real left-hand courses.

Conclusion:
Recommended for a short vacation.

Bad Saarow golf course

Due to the classification as a 5-star superior golf course, we decided to take a short golf break in July 2022 at the Bad Saarow golf course. We reserved start times for all three courses a few weeks before arrival and also booked an e-cart 3 times.

We would have expected something different from a 5-star superior golf course certified as luxury by the German golf classification of the Bundesverband Golfanlagen eV.
The 5 stars may have been justified when the facility was still managed by Arosa. In its current state, the system no longer deserves 5 stars.

I expect something else from an alleged TOP course, for which you ask for a full green fee in the upper segment (18-hole green fee Monday to Thursday EUR 85.00, Friday to Sunday EUR 95.00).

For a green fee player unfamiliar with the area, the 1.8 km long journey to tee 1 is already an orientation journey. There are hardly any signs and the route is sometimes painted on the road in a white color that is difficult to read and quite faded.
The place itself makes a neglected impression. The way to the next tee is only sparsely marked. In many cases there are no posts indicating the distance to the green on the course itself.
At a price of 39 euros for an e-cart, we expected a display showing the topography of the fairway and distance information in the e-cart, also in view of the lack of distance markings on the fairways of a 5-star superior golf course.

We were so disappointed after the first round of golf that we canceled the other booked tee times for the next few days and the e-carts at the golf reception.
The employee at the golf reception didn't seem to be interested in the loss of income of around EUR 370.
If you go here for a golf holiday, you should accept some losses, or better go somewhere else. For the called green fee prices, there are far more beautiful and well-kept facilities in Germany. All in all, it's a shame about the demise of the facility.
In our opinion, it would make sense for the Bundesverband Golfanlagen eV to critically review the golf classification of the facility in Bad Saarow and correct the classification.
