About this course

War Memorial Golf Course sits in the heart of Little Rock, Arkansas, serving as a municipal facility that has provided accessible public golf to the community for decades. The course was designed by Herman Hackbarth, a regional architect who worked primarily in the mid-twentieth century and contributed several layouts across Arkansas and neighboring states. The design reflects the practical, straightforward approach common to municipal courses of its era, emphasizing playability for everyday golfers while working within the natural topography of central Arkansas. The property occupies rolling terrain typical of the region, with mature trees framing many holes and creating definition along the fairways. The routing takes advantage of elevation changes that add visual interest and strategic variety to the round. As a public course in Arkansas's capital city, War Memorial has long served as an important venue for local amateur competitions and junior golf development, providing an affordable option for residents learning the game or maintaining regular play. The course name honors military veterans, a common dedication for American public golf facilities established in the post-World War II period. War Memorial continues to operate as part of Little Rock's municipal golf system, maintaining its role as an accessible community resource. The layout offers a traditional parkland experience with tree-lined corridors and modest length by contemporary standards, reflecting the design priorities of its time while adapting to serve modern recreational needs.
