Volcano Golf & Country Club

Volcano golf club, music, favorite of mine and my wife. We live in Texas and love to come to Volcano golf club A couple of times a year. we live in a small rural town and love the small world feel of volcano. When Troon took over the course they made some major improvements, including new carts that have added greatly to The experience. My understanding is Troon is no longer involved, but the course seems to be maintaining its good condition. This is a hidden gem on The Big Island!

The course is laid out nicely. The greens are very puttable some seasons better than others depending on rain and draught. Watch the weather. Don't get rain insurance offered on golfnow as it doesn't work. It poured rain and they said it didn't. Ha ha. Oh well. But for a municipal type course it's fun.

Nice enough layout. Conditions were OK, tight to bare lies with God knows what for fairway grass.

Greens were slow and bumpy. Probably as bad as I have played. But you know what? We were playing golf in Hawaii so how bad can it be? Got a good price on Golfnow, would have been unhappy with the $82 rack rate.

It's ok if your in the Hilo area but wouldn't travel far to play it.

Make sure you adjust your yardage. It feels like playing in Utah or Colorado. The staff was great and what a bargain compared to all the beach courses.

Finished in less than 3 hrs. Staff were incredibly friendly and cost very reasonable! Weather can be an issue I mean it is Volcano 🤷🏻‍♂️

Worth the 2 hour drive from Kona especially if you want to also go to the volcano, black sand beach, southern most point in the USA, etc. Staff was very friendly. Course conditions were better than I expected but don’t compare to the fancy resorts or country clubs. Currently rebuilding a few tee boxes which will enhance the layout. Wide fairways. Fun layout with drivable par fours. Bring a light rain jacket. 10 degrees cooler than Kona.

We have played this course several times and have enjoyed every round. It has the best grass on the fairways and greens on this side of the Island. Great price for the money and sometimes you can actually see the smoke from the volcano.

Though the greens and fairways are not always ideal the views were always superb. Great value for $

Fun course for all levels of play. Not too much trouble, and greens are in good shape. Well maintained course overall and very walkable. We took a cart and completed the round in less than 3 hrs. Had a beer and Thai food from the food truck in the parking lot after the round. Awesome!
