Hokuzan Country Club

Hokuzan Country Club, built in 1975 in the mountainous Mitsuse district of Saga City, offers a semi-private 18-hole course that plays to a par of 72 across a wide range of tees from 5,251 up to 6,921 yards from the full back markers. Pencross and L-93 grass greens give the course a quality putting surface, and the club's mountain setting, in the hills southwest of central Saga City, offers a cooler, more scenic alternative to the flatter courses found on the prefecture's coastal plain. Amenities include golf cart and club rentals, a putting green, restaurant and locker rooms. The Mitsuse district is known regionally for its soba noodle restaurants set along a scenic mountain road, giving golfers visiting Hokuzan Country Club a natural pairing for lunch or dinner after their round. For CoGolfers members exploring the hillier reaches of Saga Prefecture, Hokuzan Country Club offers a change of scenery from the coastal and plains courses more common in the region, along with a genuinely substantial length at its back tees for golfers looking for a fuller test.
