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
Garbage course. Cow pasture.
Avoid at all costs. This course would maybe be worth $10 for 18 but I’d look for a better course first.
The cart lady with her nice smile was a welcome sight on a hot day!!
I think the creek on the first hole should be covered over so I want lose more balls:(

Hottest day of the year but we got out early. Played a little slow due volume of golfers but expected that. Course is in great shape. The beverage cart came around just in time twice. Another great day at Callahan! I just wish I would quit missing 3 foot putts...
Great Course, All Around
Everything was to expectations in every aspect. If your looking for a good place to enjoy a challenging round, look no further. You won't be disappointed and will treated as quests at all times. Great Staff. For sure will be back for revenge on this course.
I love this course
I've been playing Callahan for the past two years and can't say enough good things about this course. From Josh & Julio in the pro shop to Matt the superintendent, this is a first-class operation. No three people try harder to make your day better than these three.
There are plenty of Country Clubs nearby that I have either played or been a member of that I never felt part of. Callahan is a friendly, family course that everyone will enjoy. If you play from the "tips' I promise you will be challenged at this place. If you are like me, (I'm 64 and have earned the right to play the whites ;-) ) this course is the perfect place to spend your days enjoying the rolling hills, wide fairways and smooth greens.

Weekend getaway
Vacationing in the area and wanted to play without breaking the getaway budget. Found this course online and thought we'd give it a try. So glad we did. The staff were friendly, and the locals we were paired with were a lot of fun. We love the area, and will definitely be back.
Steve’s review
Challenging but fun to play. Forgivable fairways, excellent greens. I’ll be returning soon. Great value
Fun layout...
I've played here a good bit. Greens are in great condition and it's a really great layout. Some tee boxes aren't in great shape but, I mean, youre using a tee right? No big deal.
Good Value
Only major complaint is the number of range balls you get for a $5 bucket. Kind of paltry.
