Hot Springs Village (Cortez)

Overview: The Cortez course is often described as the "classic" Hot Springs Village experience, offering a traditional parkland layout that weaves through towering pine trees and natural rock outcroppings. Designed by Ault, Clark & Associates in 1977, the course is known for its narrow, tree-lined fairways and small, undulating greens that require precise iron play and careful course management. With its scenic vistas and quiet, secluded atmosphere, Cortez remains a staple of the Village's golf portfolio and a true test of Southern target golf.

Did You Know? Cortez is famous for its "risk-reward" par-5s, where aggressive players can find birdies if they can navigate the tight corridors and strategically placed sand traps that guard the approaches.
