Chosen as the most beautiful Course in Finland!
Our Etelä-Saimaa course is built on the shores of southern Lake Saimaa, on the naturally beautiful and rocky island of Tuosa.
The course was designed by Swedish course architect Peter Fjällman.
The layout suits the area perfectly. Pines and spruces line the fairways that meander along the shoreline, creating the impression of a tight playing area—but the narrowness is often just an illusion. Still, it’s true that a patient and strategic player will score well here while enjoying some of the most stunning scenery in Finland: rugged shoreline cliffs, small coves, and the ever-present blue waters of Lake Saimaa.
Well-maintained fairways of a comfortable length, along with smooth, logical, and consistent greens, help keep the joy of the game alive throughout the round.
Unique features of the island include the historic Salpalinja fortification line, which borders the course in several places, and Natura-protected areas near a few of the holes. And one quirky rule worth knowing: you may need to account for external interference, as fox families nesting on the island are known to collect golf balls for their own mysterious purposes.
You can even arrive by boat!
We offer a unique opportunity for golf enthusiasts and nature lovers to combine their passions – boating and golf.
Our new dock, located right next to the golf course, allows you to arrive by boat, canoe, jet ski, or any type of watercraft, offering a unique and convenient way to enjoy a day on the course.
Whether you’re an avid golfer or simply looking for a new way to enjoy a summer day, the dock at Etelä-Saimaa Golf is waiting for you. Come and experience golf and dining from a fresh perspective – from the water.
We warmly welcome you to enjoy all our services and discover a truly unique golfing experience.
