Tsu Country Golf Club

Set in the rolling countryside of Mie Prefecture, Tsu Country Club is one of Japan’s more visually striking modern golf destinations. The 18-hole, par-72 layout stretches to over 7,000 yards from the championship tees and was designed by Masashi Ozaki and Kentaro Sato to combine tournament-scale presentation with strategic shot values. Golf travelers will immediately notice the dramatic white bunkering, brick-faced water hazards, and sweeping fairways that give the course a polished, almost “major championship” atmosphere. Despite its size, the routing remains playable for a wide range of handicaps thanks to generous landing areas and multiple tee options.

For traveling golfers, the appeal goes beyond the golf itself. The club is accessible from Chubu Centrair International Airport and sits within reach of onsen resorts and cultural attractions including Ise Jingu Shrine, making it easy to combine a round here with a broader golf-and-travel itinerary through central Japan. Conditioning is consistently praised, with bentgrass greens, immaculate fairways, and excellent practice facilities helping create a premium resort-club experience. The clubhouse offers upscale dining and lounge areas overlooking the course, adding to the sense that this is a destination built for a full-day golf experience rather than simply a quick round.
