About This Course

PERMANENTLY CLOSED September 30, 2020. Was one of the most challenging golf courses in the United States with a slope rating of 153. Designed by Dick Nugent and opened in 1992 on over 240 acres owned by First Presbyterian Church of Honolulu. Located at the base of the Ko'olau Range in a Jurassic Park-like setting, the 7,310-yard layout featured stunning views but extremely difficult conditions. High maintenance costs due to windward Oahu's rainy climate contributed to its closure during the COVID-19 pandemic.
