Ichida International Golf Club

Ichida International Golf Club, formerly known as Ichitatsu International Golf Club, opened in 2016 in Kimobetsu-cho, making it one of the newer public courses in the Niseko-Rusutsu golf region of southwestern Hokkaido. The 18-hole course plays to a par of 72, with a course rating of 73.1 and slope of 123 from the back tees at 6,504 yards, and a shorter front-tee option at 5,453 yards keeps the course accessible for golfers of different abilities. Modern amenities include golf carts, a driving range, a golf simulator and indoor practice facilities, along with a putting green — infrastructure that reflects the course's relatively recent construction compared to many of Hokkaido's decades-old clubs. Major credit cards are accepted, and a proper golf attire dress code applies. Kimobetsu sits near the Niseko and Rusutsu resort areas, giving this newer course a convenient position for golfers combining a round with the region's renowned ski and hot spring tourism during the warmer months. For CoGolfers members exploring the Niseko-Rusutsu corridor, Ichida International Golf Club offers a modern, well-equipped alternative to some of the area's older resort courses, with indoor practice facilities that extend its usefulness beyond the outdoor playing season.
