Pinnacle Point Golf Club Review
Pinnacle Point Golf Club is a premier golf destination located in Mossel Bay, South Africa. Ranked as the 15th best course in South Africa, it is a must play for visitors to the country, or locals looking for that special outing with friends. We visited Pinnacle Point Golf Club as the final stop on our Year End Tour. There was lots to play for in our team competition as we headed into singles day on this links style estate course.
With its stunning coastal views, challenging terrain, and world-class facilities, it has become a popular destination for golf enthusiasts from around the world. In this review, we will explore some of the best features of the course, as well as some of its potential drawbacks.
Positives
One of the most impressive features of Pinnacle Point Golf Club is its natural setting. The course is situated on a dramatic coastal cliff, with sweeping views of the Indian Ocean. The rugged terrain provides a unique challenge for golfers, with steep inclines, deep valleys, and rocky outcroppings that require strategic shot placement. The course is also beautifully landscaped, with indigenous flora and fauna adding to the scenic beauty of the area.
Another standout feature of the golf club is the quality of its facilities. The clubhouse is modern and spacious, with a range of amenities that cater to golfers of all levels. The practice facilities are top-notch, with a driving range, chipping green, and putting green that are maintained to the same high standards as the course itself. The pro shop is well-stocked with all the latest golf gear, and the staff is knowledgeable and helpful.
Negatives
While there are many positive aspects to Pinnacle Point Golf Club, there are also a few potential drawbacks to consider. The course can be quite challenging, especially for beginners, and the terrain can be rough in places. The wind can also be a factor, with gusts coming off the ocean affecting club choice and shot placement. It can be very dauting to the high handicappers or highveld golfers who hit the ball very high. Finally, the course is quite expensive, with green fees that may be out of reach for some golfers, especially local guys.
Overall
Pinnacle Point Golf Club is a world-class golf destination that offers a challenging and rewarding golfing experience. While it may not be the most accessible or affordable option for all golfers, it is certainly worth considering for those who are looking for a memorable golfing experience in a beautiful natural setting.
