Callahan Golf Links
About
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.

par3 14th? Temp tees. Photo submitted by Steve1291925 on 10/25/2012
Get value!
The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great shape as they were when I played a month ago. Bent grass greens in the Summer that are in this good of shape... there's something to be said about the Super that can pull that off!
Great value
Would play again but would play the blues next time. White tees make for some short holes or requires laying up on par 5.
Will note that the staff seemed generally unhelpful to us as first time playing the course. Curt replies to simple questions from the clubhouse cashier and the starter. Oh and the senior gentleman starter was making inappropriate comments to the cart girl who you could tell didn’t appreciate it. Would expect better.
Always a good course but
5 1/2 hour rounds are unacceptable. Marshall did nothing even after calls was made to report how slow it was. Had a tee time scheduled for another day but canceled it due to how long it takes to play there now. Without Marshall's moving golfers along plan on it being over 5 hours.
Solid course
Enjoyed playing here in the scenic foothills of the mountains. Nice course layout, challenging, yet forgiving for the novice golfer. The greens looked good, but we’re really slow! Felt like I needed to do a full swing to get the ball across the green! Overall, I would recommend, and will return.
GolfPass screwed up
There was nothing wrong with the golf course. I play there frequently. The problem was there was not a reservation for me so I ended up paying full price and luckily there was a spot near my requested time. I am debating on cancelling my. golfpass account because I have heard too many people complain that you have dropped the ball. Even Callahan says not to use your services because they have had too many complaints.
What good is it to have a discount program that doesn't work? You can make it right by giving me some compensation or consider my account closed and return my annual fee.
Pretty good course
Had to walk all course because of rain. I could see flat and low lying holes but looked like we could have driven on the ones that had a slope where it had drained well. I won’t never play it again if it is cart path only. I just had a total knee replacement eight weeks ago should have had a handicap flag but they would not let me have one.
Pace of play WAY too slow on the weekends here
I played this course yesterday also, so nothing has changed as far as the course itself, but the difference in the pace of play from a Friday to a Saturday was huge. An hour more to play the same 18 holes, and it's not like we played fast on Friday. Marshalls have to push the pace of play to make this place enjoyable to play on the weekends!
Great course condition, always interesting layout
I play this course a few times a year, and it was in terrific condition, especially the greens. I only wish the clientele who play here would help out the greenskeepers by fixing their ball marks! The layout is always interesting, lots of different looking holes.
Great course
Course in great shape.. Greens are a slow but that’s due to being bent and it’s hot .
Callahan Review
Even give the amount of our recent rain, the course was in excellent condition. Mark Reese is doing a great job maintaining the course.
Rained Out
Rained out after 3rd hole. Acquired a rain check for my wife and I.
