Sapporo Elm Country Club

Sapporo Elm Country Club, established in 1973 in Eniwa between Sapporo and Chitose, pairs two full 18-hole courses — East and West — at a single semi-private property, both playing to a par of 72. The East Course carries a notably steep slope rating of 140 across 6,755 yards from the championship tees, one of the higher slope ratings among Hokkaido's Sapporo-area clubs, while the West Course offers a slightly longer 6,806-yard test. GPS-equipped carts, caddies and a driving range with practice bunker and chipping area round out the facilities, and a proper golf attire dress code applies across the club. Eniwa's central location between the capital and New Chitose Airport places Sapporo Elm within easy reach of both, making the club a convenient stop whether golfers are exploring Sapporo or bookending a flight in or out of the region. For CoGolfers members looking for a genuinely demanding test — particularly on the high-slope East Course — Sapporo Elm Country Club offers two distinct 18-hole challenges at one property, making it a strong choice for a 36-hole day for golfers looking to measure their game against one of the tougher slope ratings in the Sapporo golf region.
