It's about a 10-minute drive from our vacation cottages to the incomparable Mauna Kea Golf Course. This course offers golfers the perfect challenge to match their level of play. Created by Robert Trent Jones, Sr., the 18-hole championship course presents dramatice changes in elevation, large undulating greens, and 120 well-placed bunkers. There are incredible views of the blue Pacific Ocean, rugged lava beds and snow-capped Mauna Kea. The signature third hole, a 210-yard par 3, requires a tee shot that carries over 180 yards of ocean to reach the green. Hope to have a photo available soon.

Nearby is the Mauna Kea’s sister course, the Hapuna Golf Course. Built on the side of a hill overlooking the ocean, this championship course includes dramatic views of the Kohala Coast as well as the Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa and Kohala mountains. The USGA ranked the Hapuna as one of the most environmentally sensitive courses in America, as designers Palmer and Seay preserved kiawe scrubs and endangered ilima plant.

Just down Hwy 19 from Hapuna and Mauna Kea, is the 36-hole Mauna Lani Resort. The original Francis Bwon Golf Course was eventually developed into two 18-hole courses, creating the North Course and South Course. The South Course is the former home of the PGA Senior Skins Game. The North Course is the more challenging of the two, while the South is more scenic and features Mauna Lani's two signature ocean-front holes. Its 15th hole, a 196-yard par 3, is one of the most photographed golf holes in the world. It requires a tee shot over the ocean to the green. Rolling terrain and groves of kiawe trees are among the characteristics of the North Course.

The expansive Waikoloa Beach Resort currently offers two golf courses for play. The Waikoloa Beach Course opened in 1981. This Robert Trent Jones, Jr. design weaves its way through the lava beds down to the surf. Also built next to the ocean is the Waikoloa Kings' Course, opened in 1990.

The Waikoloa Village Golf Club, perched a thousand feet above sea level, offers commanding views of the Kohala Coast. The 6,687-yard, par 72 course is nestled between the Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea volcanoes, and is a favorite of both professionals and novices.
