Big Island Country Club is one of the best golf courses that I played on The Big Island. I've only played 3 other golf courses, but this one was the best maintained and the price was more then half the cost of the two resort courses that I played. The 17th hole and 18th hole is so much fun to... More

What a great little golf course this one is. Just the right challenge for any level of golfer. The 'island hole' on #17 is outstanding. For the price this is a wonderful place to spend some time in the sunshine and to golf with the goats. Staff were amazingly friendly and welcoming. More

Always a pleasure to get out of the 'resort' area of Kona to play a challenging round of golf at B.I. Country Club. Well maintained and lots of wildlife add to a good game. More

Good value with dependable weather. So often on the Big Island you head out for a game of golf and find the wind even too much in paradise. At Big Island that is usually not the problem. Very interesting track with bent grass greens and a reasonable price. More

Big Island is a very good experience. It is rarely crowded; it provides tees to suit all abilities; the weather is not as hot as the beach courses; it even has an island green. If you're a duffer like me, take some extra balls. More

A great Pete Dye design, tuned up by son Perry not too long ago. Apparently it has been through some tough economic times and it is no longer an exclusive high-end club, as designed. However, the current ownership has the course in good shape. The greens were nearly perfect. Fairways in very good shape. Great location. Lots of wildlife around.... More

WOW....has this course improved immensely! I have not golfed here in about 6 or 7 months and it was still very interesting but with a major makeover! I have vowed to golf here at least 1-2 times a month. I would golf Big Island more often but my home course is right in my backyard and its always a treat.... More

Interesting, not your normal resort type course as it sits a couple of thousand feet above sea level. We've played here before and on this trip we found that there are improvements happening to the course (a new restroom being constructed near the 1st/10th tee box). There are also plans to finally build a proshop. The course itself was in... More
