When enjoying golf in Hokkaido, not only the golf course you play on but also where you stay becomes an essential part of the trip experience.

After a full day of golf from morning, you want to wash away sweat in hot springs and saunas, and relax quietly.

For such golfers, we have some exciting news.

In June 2026, “Dormy Inn Chitose Natural Hot Spring Tsurumai no Yu” had its pre-opening in Chitose City.

It is located about a 7-minute walk from the west exit of JR Chitose Station and features a large public bath with natural hot spring water inside the hotel.

What we especially want to highlight here is the “sauna.”

In fact, Hayakita Country Club also offers a sauna for golfers to enjoy.

“Play golf, refresh in the sauna, and then unwind again with hot springs and sauna at your accommodation.”

Why not plan a perfect Hokkaido golf trip especially for sauna-loving golfers?

■The Luxury of Having a Sauna at the Golf Course

Hayakita Country Club renovated its sauna in 2025.

We installed a Harvia sauna stove, allowing guests to enjoy self-infused löyly (steam). Additionally, a fresh-air relaxation area was newly added to the men’s bath.

After playing 18 holes of golf, you can head straight to the sauna.

Work up a good sweat, then refresh further in the sauna, and relax in the outdoor air bath.

This “sauna after golf” style greatly enhances the satisfaction of rounds for sauna enthusiasts.

The sauna at Hayakita Country Club operates from 11:00 to 17:00. We recommend golfers confirm the sauna hours and choose an early tee time if they wish to enjoy it fully.

■Relax After Golf at Dormy Inn Chitose

As accommodation after your round, the Dormy Inn Chitose, which opened in 2026, deserves attention.

“Dormy Inn Chitose Natural Hot Spring Tsurumai no Yu” features a large bath supplied with natural hot spring water sourced from the historic “Tsurunoyu Onsen,” which opened in the Meiji era and is one of Hokkaido’s oldest hot springs.

The famed “Tsurunoyu Onsen,” located in the same Anbetsu Town as Hayakita Country Club, is well-known locally and appreciated for its quality waters containing cold sulfur sodium bicarbonate springs.

It is also conveniently located near the golf course entrance.

After enjoying the pleasures of golf in Hokkaido, indulging in a relaxing soak in this historic hot spring is a unique luxury only this area offers.

After washing off sweat at the golf course, return to the hotel for a natural hot spring.

Soak away the day’s fatigue slowly and prepare for the next round.

This is one of the many charms of setting Chitose as your base for a golf trip.
