## About the course

Akatonbo Country Club sits on the wooded hills of northern Chiba, in the quiet town of Kozaki. It opened in May 1994 (formerly known as Kanzaki CC), and Kazumi Miura laid out its 18 holes, par 72, around the natural forest and rolling ground. Some holes are open and forgiving. Others are more strategic, with trouble down one side, and the doglegs at the 2nd and 4th call for care early in the round. The club pitches itself as a relaxed course where families and beginners feel just as welcome as seasoned players.

### Natural woodland, honest golf, _and an easy hop from Narita._

You can play with a caddie or take a riding cart and go self-play. A practice area with approach and bunker greens lets you warm up first, and a bath waits at the end of the day. Kozaki is an old sake-brewing town in the Tone River countryside, and the historic merchant streets of Sawara and the great Katori Shrine are a short drive away. That makes it a natural stop at the start or end of a trip through Narita. There's no club shuttle, so drive via the Higashi-Kanto Expressway (Oei IC, about 10 km), or take the JR Narita Line to Shimofusa-Kanzaki Station and a 10-minute taxi.
