Playing Tips

At 7,037 yards with 13 holes featuring ponds, prioritize fairway accuracy over pure length to avoid penalty strokes.

Approach shots require precision because many greens are guarded by water and the large terraced greens on holes 2 and 9 have steep shelves that can redirect missed approaches.

Bentgrass greens tend to be true with noticeable breaks, so take time to read the shelf-like contours and expect moderate to fast speeds.

Coastal winds can be variable and strong on exposed holes, so adjust club selection for headwinds and crosswinds and play conservative lines when gusts are present.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The Niigata/Joetsu area has humid summers with a rainy season in early summer, variable coastal winds that can affect ball flight, and heavy snowfall in winter that often closes the course.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (May) and autumn (September–October) are ideal for play, while the rainy season (June–July) and winter snow should be avoided.
