Well I have to rate this again, this course went bankrupt not long ago and has become very cheap and very popular. I am worried what this course will look like in a few months time with all the traffic, but this course is in my top 5 for sure having played over 100 hundred courses on Japan. 2nd hole, one of the best par 3's in the land. 8,000 yen mid-week is a steal

Beautiful and well designed course. Half an hour closer than Windsor and a much better track. Highly recommended. 10,000 on weekdays a gift.

Great "track". Very highly recommended. A lot of water comes to play, but very interesting layout with very reasonable concept. Used to be a bubble course but not anymore.

Excellent course layout and very well maintained. In fact I was so impressed with the course I played 27 holes rather than 18!

My favorite course in Tokyo area. Very well organized club, excellent course and price is reasonable for Tokyo area.

Well one of my favourites to play in Japan. It's a bit of distance from Tokyo but there are worse around to get to. Fazio loves making his design a little funky but this is very playable, plenty of water hole and undulating greens to keep play interesting. Midweek very cheap as you can play "self play" for around 10,000yen

Beautiful course well intergrated into the landscape and built around natural, mature pine trees. Highly recommended!!
