Arkansas's golf landscape includes 71 named courses and country clubs documented in the USGS Geographic Names Information System, distributed across 66 cities spanning 38 counties. The GNIS serves as the federal gazetteer of named geographic features, ensuring that every facility listed represents a real, named location indexed by county and municipality.

Because the GNIS catalogs geographic features rather than active business operations, this directory functions as a partial and point-in-time snapshot. A recently opened or renamed course may not yet appear in the federal database, and operational details such as public or private designation, fee structures, and course layout fall outside the scope of the GNIS record. Golfers seeking current information should use this directory to identify and locate courses by city and county, then consult each facility's official website to confirm operating hours, rates, availability, and booking procedures.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.

How to use the Arkansas directory

Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
