Village property owners' love for golf is fairly
obvious, and the demand for quality golf keeps all the
courses active with an average of 60,000 rounds per year
per course.
Maintaining high standards has paid
off for the Village courses. Every golf course in
the Village is meticulously manicured and constantly
maintained so that the quality of golf is kept to the
highest standards, and keeps many of the courses on the
"Tops" list in Arkansas, the mid-South and the nation.

Balboa Golf Course
& Country Club
5362 -
6725 Yards
Par 72
Opened in 1987, this course has full country
club facilities including restaurant, grill, lounge, pro shop,
and driving range.
Golf Digest rated Balboa No. 7 in the state's best
rankings for 2005-2006
Balboa has always been and continues to be
a Village favorite. The fairways are flatter and more wide
open, which allows golfers a bad shot and still keeps their
score in good shape. Balboa doesn't have as many sand
traps as other Village golf courses, but has four holes where
water comes into play.
This is
a walker-friendly course that gets better with each round
played. Fairways, tees and roughs are 419 Bermuda Grass and the
greens are a blend of Penn Cross and Crenshaw Bent Grass.
According to the low
handicap golfers in the Village, Balboa is a great test of golf and has some
very tricky par 3's.
Balboa is slated for
renovation in late fall of 2009.
The clubhouse at Balboa is a 20,000 square
foot building featuring the Balboa Club, dining room, grill and
full-service lounge. The Balboa club seats approximately
180 people. Meeting rooms and private dining rooms are
available for groups.
The Balboa Restaurant and Lounge, located
in the Balboa Clubhouse, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and
has a full-service bar. Patio dining is available, as well
as music in the lounge. Balboa features 'all you can eat'
Sunday buffet. Call the Balboa Restaurant & lounge at
(501) 922-2909.

Par 62
Opened in 1982, Coronado is the only
executive-length par 62 golf course in Hot Springs Village.
The facilities include a pro shop, putting green and restaurant.
It is a great course to play for those looking to
get in a quick 18 holes, a beginning golfer, or a veteran wanting to perfect
their short game. NO SAND! If you don't
like bunker shots, this course is for you!
But don't be fooled.
Coronado is as challenging from 150 yards as any in the Village.
"It is the hardest
course in the Village to shoot par," John Paul, Director of Golf for Hot Springs
Village commented. The fairways, tees and
roughs are Common Bermuda and the greens are Penn Cross Bent grass. Casa
Coronado Grill, at the Coronado Golf Course, serves breakfast and
lunch. Daily lunch specials feature home-style
cooking. Patio dining is available to enjoy one of their

Cortez Golf Course
5313 -
6610 Yards
Par 72

scenic 18-hole championship course is located in the northern section of the

shop, putting green and driving range.

Springs Village golf courses, found on many brochures and post
cards around the village. (pictured right)

length of the drive, but the position that counts. The course demands that its
players hit the landing areas or they're in trouble.
Cortez has Common
Bermuda Grass in the fairways, tees, and roughs, and Penn Cross Bent Grass
greens.
Cortez was renovated in
late 2006 which greatly enhanced its playability and provides a state-of-the-art
irrigation system. The renovation also included re-grassing the entire course,
correcting drainage issues, and rebuilding several tees and greens.
Additional parking and
remodeling of the golf shop and restaurant were also completed.
The Cortez Clubhouse features a golf shop
and the Wood N Iron. The
Wood N Iron serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and has draft
and canned beer, as well as wine coolers. Patio dining is
also available. You can reach the Wood N Iron at (501)

Granada Golf Course
5014 - 7115 Yards
Par 72
Opened in the Fall of 2004, Granada is
the newest 18-hole championship course. Granada is arguably the most
scenic course in the Village as well. The rolling hills, amazing views,
beautiful creeks and pine forests are just some of what make this course unique.
Although being located in the foothills of the
Ouachita Mountains may have disadvantages for walkers, the great views, long
fairways, and large driving areas make up for it in playability.
One of the best and most difficult holes on the
course is the par 4 No. 17 which has a green 60 yards in length.
Granada features Tif Sport Bermuda in the fairways, tees and
roughs. The greens are a blend of L93 and Crenshaw Bent Grass. The
signature hole on this course is the beautiful 18th with a meandering waterfall
that stretches the length of the fairway.
The course ranges from 5,014 from the forward tees to over
7,000 yards from the back. There are 5 sets of tees ranging
from Gold to Black. With almost 7 miles of cart paths, Granada plays
shorter than it reads. Facilities include a golf shop, driving range, short
game area, and putting green. |

6494 Yards
Par 72
Opened in 1996, this course has a
restaurant, pro shop, and driving range.
Long on great golf holes, Magellan is one of the
shorter courses, but don't let the length fool you.

will challenge all skill levels. It is a favorite for both men and women
and is consistently one of the top three courses played.
Magellan began as a golf school with three holes,
and in 1996, the POA expanded it to 18 and opened its sixth golf course.
