Time Here Is Both rest and Recreation. Enjoy a Feeling of Relaxation

Post-golf time at Gotemba West is very important because the classy clubhouse and luxurious accommodations at the West Inn offer the service and hospitality essential to rest and relaxation. The clubhouse includes a fresh and sunny casual restaurant, a dining restaurant overlooking the 18th hole, and a terrace restaurant under the starry sky, plus three party rooms, each with its own distinctive mood, and a pro shop with a full selection of appealing items. The minute guests step inside they feel the attentive hospitality in store for them.

In 1998, this elegant course gained a great reputation as the home of the first Sumitomo Visa Taiheiyo Ladies Tournament. The proximity of the neighboring Gotemba Course adds to its charm, but its strategically demanding nature must not be overlooked. The natural setting on the lower slopes of Mount Fuji is put to good use. At the same time, water hazards and cliffs pose potentially troublesome traps. This highly playable course with its ever-green fairways, separator cedar, cypress trees, and golf carts offers opportunities to enjoy golfing to its full potential. Not far from the metropolitan area, it is a fine place to rest the body and mind.
