Callahan Golf Links in Waleska possesses a rich history of more than 150 years of farming and family ownership. Before being converted into a golf course, the site functioned as a farm from the Civil War until World War II. When creating the course, the natural beauty of the landscape was carefully preserved. As its name would suggest, the layout is a true links design with carefully placed pot bunkers and thick cuts of rough. Water is barely present but there are plenty of other challenges throughout that will quickly make you forget that fact. It is gentle enough for beginners but the back tees will challenge more experienced players. Golfers can also work on their short game on the chipping and putting greens or warm up on the driving range. The affordable rates make Callahan Golf Links an excellent value.

Going downhill

This is a fun layout but the course conditions, staff, and amenities are all below average. The tee boxes are mostly bare dirt, the greens are in poor condition, the staff is rude, and the amenities are, well non existent. On the range they have spray painted a message that says, “Read the F/N signs.” This in reference to not hitting of the grass but hitting of the mats. I get it, but completely unprofessional. I enjoy the laid back experience that Callahan offered but it’s gone beyond that now. No beverage cart and to top it of, not one water cooler on the entire course. Hate to see the course go downhill but this is the last time I will play here.

Enjoyable afternoon at Callahan

Course in pretty good shape, greens coming along since played last. Met a nice gentleman and enjoyed the company. Callahan is a nice golf course for cost and proximity to me. I live at Fairways of Canton so pretty close. Facility and course and staff represent a reasonable rate and friendly atmosphere for 18 holes of golf. I will play at least once or twice a month.

Best Value Course in NW Georgia

If you're looking for a course under $60 in Georgia that's not a par 3 course are poor quality maintenance course this is the course for you play can be slow sometimes but overall expect a 4-Hour round greens are usually in good condition with the exception of the first hole course plays pretty normal would recommend for high handicap and mid handicap golfers who don't want to pay a lot to play golf.

The course is always fun.

The work they've done on the course has been amazing. They have thinned out so much underbrush it's incredible now if they could just get some of the rangers to put some water in the ball washers so you can clean your ball every so often it would be terrific.

G Money’s review

Love everything about Callahan except they do a terrible job with making sure folks are keeping up with the group ahead of them. It was a 4.5 hour round yesterday because a threesome was holding up 4 groups behind them and no one was out there keeping an eye on pace of play. Get this fixed and you’ll be one of my favorite courses.

Underbrush removal

First time I’ve played here since November and I love the way you’ve cleared the underbrush and some trees from around the course. Improves the aesthetics and playability of the course.

Keep it in rotation

Course conditions are a little rough right now, which isn’t abnormal for this time of year. It will continue to be a course I play on a regular basis

Beyond Extremely Challenging

The course is in good shape for early spring. Unfortunately, the wind (20+ mph) picked up in the afternoon and made the holes with unprotected greens impossible. We had several balls literally blow off the greens (one rolled off the green into the adjacent water hazard). Just watch out for high winds and enjoy a good course.
