ARBOR LINKS GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Nebraska City, NE, USA
Designed by Arnold Palmer


Arbor Links Golf Club sits in Nebraska City, a historic Missouri River town in southeastern Nebraska known for its tree-lined streets and as the birthplace of Arbor Day. The course was designed by Arnold Palmer and his design team, part of Palmer's extensive portfolio of accessible daily-fee and public courses built across the United States during the latter decades of his career. The routing takes advantage of the rolling terrain characteristic of the Loess Hills region that borders the Missouri River valley.
The layout reflects Palmer's design philosophy of creating courses that challenge skilled players while remaining playable for recreational golfers. The property features mature trees that frame fairways and define playing corridors, appropriate given Nebraska City's connection to tree conservation and forestry. Elevation changes provide variety in shot-making and create natural amphitheater settings around several greens. Water features come into play on multiple holes, typical of Palmer designs from this era.
Arbor Links serves as a regional golf destination in an area with relatively few championship-length courses. The facility caters to both local members and traveling golfers exploring southeastern Nebraska's recreational offerings. The course provides a representative example of Palmer's work in the Midwest, where his design firm sought to bring tournament-caliber golf to communities outside major metropolitan areas.
