## About the course

PGM Ikeda Country Club opened in November 1960 in the Satsukiyama hills of Ikeda, on the northern edge of the Osaka metropolitan area. Designed by Yoshio Machida and Hiroshi Araki, it offers 27 holes in three distinct nines on hilly terrain with moderate elevation changes and views out over the Osaka plain. Satsukidaira has wide, gently undulating fairways; Ayahane is flatter and narrower, with strategically placed bunkers; and Kinukake is the most aggressive, with shots carrying ponds and valleys.

### A classic hillside club _just minutes from the city._

Formerly known simply as Ikeda Country Club, it joined the PGM group in 2021 and now takes visitor bookings online. Its biggest draw for travellers is convenience: a club bus runs from Hankyu Ikeda Station, itself a short train ride from Umeda, and Osaka Itami Airport is nearby. Ikeda is a pleasant town to linger in after the round, home to the Cupnoodles Museum and the Satsukiyama park with its cherry blossoms and city views, while the hot-spring town of Arima Onsen near Kobe is within easy reach for an evening soak.
