Public Golf Courses

Burns Park Golf Course

I-40 at Exit 150
North Little Rock, AR  72116
Phone: 501-791-8537
Website: www.northlr.org
Maps & DirectionsDirections & Map

This club has two regulation eighteen hole courses. The Championship Course is very narrow and challenging for all skill levels. The signature hole is #15, a 367-yard, par 4, featuring a dogleg left fairway and requiring a shot over water. The Tournament Course has open fairways on the first few holes, then tightens up as you continue through your round. There are several par 5's that can be reached in two shots, so this is a great course for making birdies or even an eagle. The greens are large, undulating and fast. Water hazards come into play on fourteen holes. The signature hole is #5, a 500-yard, par 5, featuring an uphill dogleg left fairway that provides a majestic view of the Arkansas River.

Great municipal course in an out-of-the-way location (not too many hackers around). Challenging terrain but still fun for all ability levels -- and the price is hard to beat. This is a challenging course. No sand, lots of water, and especially hilly. Watch out for #9, 429 Yrds. with an elevated green.

After a year-long renovation that cost $2 million, the new Rebsamen opened in November 1999 and is now a showplace to rival a country club. The only municipal course to make the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette survey, Rebsamen places No. 6 and will eventually contend for the top spot after given proper upkeep and time to mature.

One of central Arkansas' biggest playgrounds, War Memorial Park and Stadium has something for every sports fan. When the University of Arkansas Razorbacks football team hails from Fayetteville, it plays to a packed house at War Memorial Stadium. Nearby Ray Winder Field hosts the Arkansas Travelers baseball team during home games in the spring and summer. Golfers can play a full 18 holes or just putt on the park's greens, and tennis players can hit the courts while kids play on the playgrounds. The park also offers a complete fitness center and the kid-friendly Little Rock Zoo.

Upcoming events at the War Memorial Park:
Razorback Tailgate - September 11, 2010
