Great Course

We have played this course several times and have enjoyed every round. It has the best grass on the fairways and greens on this side of the Island. Great price for the money and sometimes you can actually see the smoke from the volcano.

Fun course for all levels of play. Not too much trouble, and greens are in good shape. Well maintained course overall and very walkable. We took a cart and completed the round in less than 3 hrs. Had a beer and Thai food from the food truck in the parking lot after the round. Awesome!

Volcano Golf

Wide open with only a few sand bunkers and hazards that allows you to swing freely when you're average golfer.

Wet but still fun!

The course was in great shape. It really is a great track in the rain forest and picturesque. Weather wasn't quite as cooperative as we'd hoped, but we had our rain gear and stuck it out. Carts with club awnings would be a nice improvement if possible. They did have a few of those but unfortunately we didn't get one. Maybe next time! We"ll be back!

Casual gorgeous course

We return to Volcano annually and play this course a couple of times. it is casual and well maintained. Very friendly staff - not so busy that you have to be paired in foursomes (if you like playing solo or in a pair). Many variety of birds on the course too but not so many that they impede play. Nene, ducks, pheasants, turkeys and more. Course is relatively flat w a few rolling hills. perfect if you like to walk the course. bring you rain jacket! it is often misty or lightly raining (this has never stopped us). Bring extra balls is you tend to hit out of bounds a lot. If you lose your ball in the taller grass you prby aren't going to find it (but you might find someone else's!)

Fast Play - friendly locals

It was my first time to play on this course, and I enjoyed the experience! The pace of play was fast, and the friendly locals made me feel right at home. The fairways and greens were well maintained, contributing to a fun day on the course.

I did notice a couple of greens that may have had what previously looked like bunkers, but they are now nicely covered in grass, which actually worked to my advantage! The high elevation added a coolness to the morning, allowing wearing a long-sleeved shirt and vest quite comfortable.

Heaven on earth

This is a fantastic course. It’s not a PGA course. Enjoy the course, layout, and challenges. Relatively easy course.

Tee boxes- 95% perfect. There may have been some uneven areas.
Fairways- like carpet. Everything is incredibly green.
Greens- great conditions but slow.
Staff- super friendly. There is no rush here.

Note- amenities are lacking but take note of nature. It’s 4,000 ft in elevation. When hitting irons (unto the green) club down. Your ball travels further.

Heaven on earth

Fantastic course. 4,000 ft in elevation. Ball travels further. Many times I had to club down with my approach shots. Not a difficult course.

Tee boxes- not all perfectly level but level enough
Fairways were all great. Felt like walking on carpet
Bunkers- lacking sand. Raked but more dirt than sand.
Greens- slow. Nothing tricky

It’s a must play course. One of my favorites. It’s no PGA course, but it is special.
