Laforet Shuzenji & Country Club ☆ Follow

The Laforet Shuzenji & Country Club is an 18-hole golf course located in the Shuzenji area of Izu, designed to offer views of Mount Fuji to the north and the Amagi Mountains to the south. The course is set within a landscape that changes with the seasons, featuring cherry blossoms in spring and cottages visible from the fairways that contribute to its resort atmosphere. The layout incorporates natural terrain features, including valleys and ponds, to create a varied playing experience. The design emphasizes a balance between open, powerful shots and strategic challenges. While many holes allow for bold drives, the course integrates water hazards and valley crossings that require precision. This mix of characteristics aims to provide a refreshing round of golf that utilizes the natural topography of the Izu region effectively. The facility includes a clubhouse, a restaurant, and a practice range to support players. Rental equipment is available for guests, including men's and women's club sets and shoes. The course has undergone renovations, including an interior update to the clubhouse in late 2024, and has adopted modern technologies such as GPS-enabled golf carts to assist with navigation and distance measurement.
