Gozensui Golf Club

Overview: Gozensui Golf Club is a forest course in Misawa, Tomakomai, where clear streams and retained native trees are central to the layout. The official course pages describe 18 holes built around the natural terrain, and the current profile lists a 7,013-yard, par-72 championship setup. The fairways are not presented as isolated strips cut through a park. Instead, the course moves through primeval woodland, with water and tree lines shaping the route and the visual rhythm of the round.

History: Gozensui opened on 7 July 1992 as the Gozensui Golf Club Mimi Classic Course, later appearing under the Island Golf Resort Gozensui name. The current official profile credits Isamu Doi with the design and Shoichi Asami with project supervision. Its tournament history includes the 56th Hokkaido Open Golf Championship in 2022 and the ISPS HANDA Summer Showdown in 2025, giving the course a documented competitive life as well as a resort-area location.

Did You Know? The name Gozensui is matched by a course that makes water part of its natural identity. The operator describes abundant clear streams and terrain left as untouched as possible, while the hole guide changes between A and B green configurations by month. The important architectural point is not a made-up signature hole, but the way the routing uses forest, stream and green position together.
