From the Fort Smith River Valley to the Ozark north, the Hot Springs spa tracks and the Oklahoma line, this is a local's map of where the good golf actually is.
We lead with the ground we know: the courses around Fort Smith and the wider Arkansas–eastern Oklahoma golf country. Public value, private tradition, resort golf and even the state's booming disc golf — ranked and explained by someone who plays here.
The best golf courses in Arkansas, chosen by a River Valley local — from the Ozark bentgrass up north to Hot Springs' resort tracks and the Fort Smith courses in between.
