This course has wide fairways for the average golfer and plenty of hazards for those that play aggressively. The greens roll true and the bunkers are consistent. Regardless of how your game is going the views of the mountains and ocean are fantastic.

Puakea is a fun track right in Lihue. The fairways are in good condition and wide enough for any skill level. (but stay on the fairways) The greens are well protected by bunkers, but large and friendly. The grass on the greens were inconsistent and putting was difficult. If you are looking for a fun round at a challenging course with a relatively low price... Think Puakea.

If you have played Prince before and said "never again", it is time to rethink the course. The greens are great, the fairways are now more open to play than prior to the re-construction. You will still lose balls out here, but you will also post a better score all the way around. A great experience and some nice views along the way.
