A famous retreat area near Tokyo in neighbouring Kanagawa prefecture, 8 iconic golf clubs all with rich histories in this historical resort area often visited by the Japanese Royal family and other dignitaries and high society! The first course built in the valley was the Fujiya Hotels Sengoku Golf Club constructed in 1917 making it the third oldest course in Japan after Kobe (1902) and the Yokohama golf club (1906). The site lent its self so well to the golf courses design that they only needed to move slight amounts of soil, making minimal changes to the landscape. With a fresh natural spring filled lake for a water source, even the grass feels happy.
