Hokkaido Country Club

Hokkaido Country Club, established in 1965 in Nanae Town near Hakodate at the island's southern tip, pairs two full 18-hole courses — the Onuma Course and the Prince Course — on a single resort-style property near the scenic Lake Onuma. The Onuma Course plays to an unusual par of 73 across 7,330 yards from the back tees with a course rating of 75.0, one of the longer and more demanding tests in southern Hokkaido, while the Prince Course offers a more standard par-72 round at 6,724 yards from the black tees with a rating of 73.1. Mandatory caddies and a driving range, practice bunker and putting green round out the facilities, and the clubhouse includes a restaurant and shower amenities, though the course closes entirely during the winter months. Lake Onuma and its surrounding quasi-national park are a well-known scenic destination near Hakodate, drawing visitors for hiking and lake views, and this golf club's proximity makes it a natural pairing for golfers touring the area. For CoGolfers members building a golf trip through southern Hokkaido, having two full 18-hole courses with distinct par configurations at one property gives real variety, whether the goal is a single challenging round on the Onuma Course or a more moderate test on the Prince Course.
