The Waiehu Golf Course was made with County employees without using

professional help. They put it together and made the course. And the

course is a very unique course. Its not a professionally designed course but

yet it provides recreation for your residents at a very reasonable rate.

Almost all the fairways and greens have a variety of ocean and mountain views

The ocean views face east and catch a fair bit of our predominant Trade Winds

On the windy days this course can be quite the challenge

Mauis Dream 18 Waiehu #2 Fairway fantasy: piecing together an ideal round from Maui's championship courses

By Matthew Thayer - Maui No Ka Oi Magazine

2 Waiehu Golf Course Hole 5 234 Yards, Par 3

From the elevated tee box, golfers have a birds-eye view of windsurfers and

kite surfers plying the windswept ocean below. The mountain Haleakala rises in

the distance, and the lush green valleys of the West Maui Mountains seem close

enough to touch. This municipal courses par 3 provides plenty of time to enjoy

the view, as groups tend to back up three and four deep as they wait to tee off.

When the wind blows, which is all the time, this is one of the toughest holes on

Maui.

It takes a long tee shot to reach its small green. A towering sand dune looms

large along the right side of the fairway and gives slicers fits. Trade winds quarter

from behind and tend to sail errant balls into the dunes thick brush. This was the

finishing hole back when Waiehu was only a nine-hole course. It makes you

wonder how many matches were won and lost here in the treacherous wind.

Mauis Dream 18 Waiehu #9 Fairway fantasy: piecing together an ideal round from Maui's championship courses

9 Waiehu Golf Course Hole 7 490 Yards, Par 5

Tall, spindly ironwood trees endure the wind and add rugged ambience to this

long par 5, which borders more oceanfront than any other hole on Maui.

This is a classic links hole whose subtle nature makes it easy to dismiss at first

glance, but thankfully, the guys who installed the fairway long ago left every little

dune, dip, and roll along the length of the fairway.

Whether they were geniuses or just lazy, their work means golfers now may face

any kind of side-hill lie, no matter how well they hit the center of the fairway.

The right side of the fairway is the place to be, but push it too far and youll find

the ocean. Strong trade winds occasionally bring balls back into play.
