The golf course is located next to Volcanoes National Park. It is fairly flat, but it has some rolling hills which will cause uneven lies. There is a pond and three ditches which come into play on four holes. Almost all of the tees and some of the greens are elevated. The most difficult hole on the course is #15, a 425-yard, par 4, requiring a tee shot up a dogleg fairway with tall pines guarding the turn.
