Kameoka Golf Club

Kameoka Golf Club has operated as a semi-private, parkland-style course in Kameoka city since 1998, designed by American professional golfer Curtis Strange and playing 6,585 yards from the back tees with a 71.8 rating and 123 slope over bent grass greens. Strange's design work brought a more contemporary, internationally influenced routing to this part of Kyoto prefecture, distinct from the Japanese-architect layouts that dominate much of the region's older golf stock. The club offers golf carts with GPS, club rentals, a driving range, bunker practice area, and an on-site restaurant, and accepts a wide range of credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, JCB, Diners, American Express, and UnionPay. Kameoka city sits in a valley basin just west of Kyoto, historically known as the birthplace of the Oomoto religious movement and now home to a genuine cluster of golf facilities, including the separately named Kameoka Country Club nearby, giving golfers a choice of distinctly different courses within the same city. Being built in the late 1990s, Kameoka Golf Club reflects more modern conditioning and design sensibilities than many of the prefecture's older 1960s and 1970s clubs. Golfers interested in a Curtis Strange design close to Kyoto through CoGolfers can consider Kameoka Golf Club, and the community is a good place to find others planning a round in this part of the prefecture.
