Thunder Bayou Golf Links in Blytheville is the primary public golf facility in northeast Arkansas's most historically significant city, a former Air Force base community that has reinvented itself after the economic challenges that followed the closure of Eaker Air Force Base. The course plays through flat, open Mississippi Delta terrain with a links-inspired design that suits the wide, agricultural landscape of the Arkansas lowlands. Perimeter Road suggests the course's proximity to what was once a major military installation, and the flat terrain of the former airfield area creates a playing environment quite unlike the wooded Ozark courses found elsewhere in Arkansas. Thunder Bayou is an affordable community asset that serves the recreational needs of Blytheville and the surrounding Mississippi County farming communities. The Delta climate means extremely hot summers but mild winters, making spring and fall the most comfortable seasons for a round at Thunder Bayou.
Thunder Bayou Golf Links was developed in Blytheville in the context of the community rebuilding efforts that followed the closure of Eaker Air Force Base in 1991, one of the most economically devastating events in northeast Arkansas history. The course was designed to provide affordable public recreation and help revitalize the local recreational amenity base for a community working to attract new economic activity. The links-style name and design reflect the flat, open character of the Mississippi Delta landscape that defines this corner of Arkansas.
