Yumura Country Club

Yumura Country Club has played in Shinonsen town, on Hyogo's northern Sea of Japan coast, offering tee options from 4,864 to 6,320 yards at a par of 70. The club takes its name from Yumura Onsen, a small, quiet hot spring town along the Yakuno River known for its footbaths and traditional ryokan inns, giving golfers a natural pairing of a round with a relaxing soak afterward. Shinonsen sits in one of Hyogo's more remote coastal areas, facing the Sea of Japan rather than the busier Seto Inland Sea side of the prefecture, offering a genuinely different regional character from the dense golf clusters found in southern Hyogo. The area's position along the Mikata district's rural coastline makes a golf trip here more of a destination excursion than a quick day round from Kobe or Osaka. The compact par-70 routing and moderate yardage suit the area's more relaxed, resort-oriented pace compared to the championship-length courses common in the Banshu golf corridor further south. Golfers combining a Yumura Onsen getaway with a round through CoGolfers can add Yumura Country Club to that itinerary, and the community is a good place to find others planning a trip to this quieter northern coastal area.
