Tottori Country Club Yoshioka Onsen Course

A dramatic cliffside gem where Sea of Japan breezes meet precision golf and legendary onsen culture.

About the Course

Nestled in the picturesque Yoshioka Hot Springs region of Tottori Prefecture, the Tottori Country Club Yoshioka Onsen Course is a hidden jewel that combines world-class golf with one of Japan's oldest thermal spa traditions. Built in 1977, this course has been meticulously designed to challenge golfers while showcasing the region's natural beauty—from Lake Koyama's stunning vistas to the refreshing salt-tinged breezes carried from the nearby Sea of Japan. The relatively compact 6,591-yard layout demands precision over brute force, with narrow fairways and strategic bunkering that reward course management and short-game prowess. The front nine features a series of tightly orchestrated downhill holes, while the back nine escalates the challenge with formidable par-4s and distinctive two-tiered greens. What sets this destination apart is the rare marriage of golf and wellness: after your round, unwind in the property's onsen facilities or venture into the charming hot spring village that surrounds the course, where traditional ryokans offer authentic Japanese hospitality and kaiseki cuisine featuring local Matsuba crab and Tottori Wagyu beef.
