## About the course

Just five minutes from the Miyagawachi interchange on the Higashi-Kyushu Expressway, the Oita Course opened in November 1975 and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2025. It was laid out across rolling hills by Chohei Miyazawa, a direct disciple of the great Seiichi Inoue, and it shows in the strategic, varied routing. The 18-hole, par-72 course plays to 6,818 yards from the back tees, with Korai fairways and two greens on every hole, one bentgrass and one Bermuda, each demanding a different approach.

### A half-century-old layout in the Inoue tradition, _refreshed for a new generation._

The clubhouse was renovated in 2025, the restaurant serves set meals with salad and dessert buffets, and you can choose between a caddie and self-play. The long par-5 5th is the hardest hole on the card. Oita makes an excellent base for a Kyushu golf trip: the steaming hot springs of Beppu are a short drive away, Yufuin's quieter onsen town lies inland, and Oita's coast is famed for seafood such as seki-aji and seki-saba. Play in the morning and be soaking in an outdoor bath by late afternoon. The easiest way to reach the course is by car or taxi from Oita city.
