The round of golf at Excellent Golf Club Ichishi Onsen Course begins with a fairly standard par-4 hole. There is just one bunker to the right side of the fairway close to the landing position and the fairway narrows as it approaches the green. There is out of bounds on the left side as you get close to the green but this 1st hole is a decent opportunity to make a good start.
Water is not a huge feature on this golf course and despite having a few ponds located around the 18 holes, it only really comes into play on one hole which is the 16th. This par-3 requires a tee over water to a large circular green which is protected by three bunkers. Most players should not have a problem clearing the water and finding the putting surface on this hole.
Arguably the toughest hole on the course comes in the front 9 and is the 5th hole. This par-5 plays to 560 yards from the back tee and is the longest hole at Excellent Golf Club Ichishi Onsen Course. The narrow fairway futures a dogleg to the right and there is out of bounds on both sides throughout the whole length of the hole. There is one fairway bunker and the green is protected by two bunkers but keeping the ball on the narrow fairway is the key to success on this hole.
In addition to the excellent 18 hole golf course you can enjoy open air and indoor baths, a restaurant and a 4 star hotel should you wish to stay and make a weekend of it at Excellent Golf Club Ichishi Onsen Course.
