Diamondhead Golf Club

About Diamondhead Golf Club

Tucked away in the Ouachita Mountains, this public track delivers mountain golf at an honest price point in one of Arkansas's most scenic resort destinations. The layout takes advantage of the natural topography without being punitive, offering elevation changes and wooded corridors that feel more like North Carolina than the typical Arkansas farmland courses. What sets it apart is how well-maintained the conditions are for a municipal-style operation – the greens roll true and the fairways are surprisingly lush given the reasonable green fees. The 4.3 Google rating from 153 reviews tells the real story here: locals and tourists alike keep coming back because it consistently over-delivers on expectations. Walking is permitted, which is rare enough these days and adds to the mountain golf experience, letting you take in the Hot Springs scenery at your own pace. This isn't a destination course that will make golf magazines, but it's exactly the kind of solid, well-run public facility that makes for memorable golf trips when paired with the town's famous thermal baths and historic charm.
