Detailed description

Prince Course at Princeville Resort, is a Resort, 18 hole golf course located in Kauai, Hawaii.

Prince Course at Princeville Golf & Country Club first opened for play in 1991. The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr.

The 7,378-yard, par-72 course has elevated tees, ravines and aggressive natural vegetation. With its stunning vistas and variety of holes, it's been ranked among America's top 100 public courses.

The course has a reputation for being difficult. As an example, #1 is a short par 4 with a small landing area in front of a large ravine that sets up a very difficult approach. This hole is one of the most difficult starting holes in golf. Read Richard Berger's review (found below) to get an appreciation for the course difficulty and his experience with #1.

The course closed in 2015, with some talk that it might become private, although more recently there has been talk that it will remain  a resort course available for public play, which appears most likely. 

Renovation work, which will be overseen by Jones, is planned to begin starting in the first quarter of 2016.
