Balboa
Golf Course is one of the more challenging courses in the
Village. If you like fast, well-maintained greens, then this is your
course. It was in 1987, and remains today, one of the most popular and
heavily played courses within Hot Springs Village. The fairways, which are wider
and have less slope than some of our other courses, present the golfer with a
great opportunity for par, even with a bad tee shot.
This is a walker-friendly course that gets better with each round played.
Fairways, tees and roughs are Common and 419 Bermuda Grass and the greens are a
blend of Penn Cross and Crenshaw Bent Grass.
According to the low handicap golfers in the Village, Balboa is a great test of
golf and has some very tricky par 3's. Balboa is slated for renovation in late
2007.
