New 18 Hole Putting Course in Waikoloa Beach Resort

We live in an oasis surrounded by thousands of acres of lava so when new activities become available to this somewhat isolated location….it’s big news 🙂

Check out the photo of a zoning sign that appeared in the Waikoloa Beach Resort near the King’s Shop’s gas station. These are the signs mandated by the County whenever a use permit is being requested by a land owner and in this case a 18 hole putting course.  The Tax Map Key listed is on or near the King’s Shops.

I called the County Planning Department and they mentioned the hearing is in Kona at the County Facility on February 15th if you are interested in contributing to public comment or learning more about this project.

I see it as a “good thing” as low impact, children friendly activities for those windy days or early evenings under the stars are rare here.  Let’s hope they are approved and they actually follow through and build it sooner than later!
