Golf in Magnolia

Magnolia is the county seat of Columbia County in south Arkansas, home to Southern Arkansas University, a comprehensive public university that has shaped the community's character by combining petroleum industry heritage with academic tradition. The Smackover oil field discovery in the 1920s created prosperity across the surrounding counties, and Magnolia's role as a county seat and university city has sustained a professional and educational community that supports recreational amenities including Magnolia Country Club in the rolling piney woods landscape of south Arkansas.
