Sarobetsu Country Club

Sarobetsu Country Club, established in 1991 in Toyotomi, a town in Hokkaido's far northern Soya region named after the nearby Sarobetsu wetlands, offers a semi-private, public-access 18-hole course that plays to a par of 72. The course measures 6,574 yards from the back tees down to 6,122 yards from the regular tees, with a course rating of 73.1 and slope of 123 from the longer markers. Amenities include golf carts, caddies, a driving range, golf simulator and indoor practice facilities, giving members a way to stay sharp through the long northern Hokkaido winter. Walking is permitted, and the club accepts major credit cards including JCB, Visa and American Express. The Sarobetsu wetlands nearby are one of Japan's most significant wetland ecosystems, known for their summer wildflowers and migratory bird populations, drawing nature-focused visitors to this remote part of the island. For CoGolfers members venturing into Hokkaido's far north, near Wakkanai and the Sarobetsu Plain, this course offers a genuine golf option in one of the country's most remote and ecologically significant regions, giving travelers a reason to extend their nature-focused trip with a round of golf in this quiet northern corner of Japan.
