The course features a thoughtfully varied layout that challenges players to combine boldness with precision, especially on tee shots. Undulating fairways add an extra layer of difficulty by affecting shot distance and direction, while shorter holes demand careful navigation around strategically placed hazards. The clubhouse offers a refined atmosphere infused with the aroma of Akita cedar, complemented by a restaurant and VIP rooms suitable for various occasions. Conveniently accessible within 10 minutes from Akita North IC or Showa Oga Peninsula IC, this course provides a memorable golfing experience in the Tohoku region.

Playing Tips

Accuracy off the tee is essential because undulating fairways and strategically placed hazards punish errant drives.

Adjust club selection carefully on uphill and downhill holes and aim to leave approach shots below the hole when possible to simplify putts.

Short par-3s and tighter par-4s require precise placement to avoid tucked hazards and narrow landing areas.

Greens are bentgrass and can play firm with subtle breaks, so take time to read the slopes and be cautious with putts from above the hole.

Seasonal winds and local gusts across the hilly terrain can change carry and roll, so check wind direction and strength before each tee shot and approach.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Akita experiences cool, often humid summers with occasional typhoons, mild and sometimes wet springs, and cold winters with significant snowfall, so conditions can change markedly by season and wind can be a factor on exposed holes.

Best Season to Play

Best played from late spring through early autumn (roughly May–October), with comfortable conditions in late spring and attractive autumn colors in October; avoid winter because of heavy snow.
