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.

I get it, a Saturday in the winter and we all are not playing on tour. A 5 and 1/2 hour round? We addressed it with the Marshall, but no help. Stay away on weekends and holidays unless you want a Sunday at Augusta experience with pace of play.

Love this course, even when it's packed!

One of my favorite courses. The staff is just awesome!!

Now the rest of my review is for all the golfers that might be reading this:

1. show some respect and clean after yourself. If you destroy the golf course by leaving trash, divot marks..etc than eventually there will be no good public course left.

2. Ego effects pace of play: We all have bad days trust me! But you are not impressing anyone by hitting 3 or 4 balls every hole from the blue tees. the tees are designed for different handicaps not by gender. Move up to white tees or even the red/green. You will thank me later!!

Good course

A perfect day for golf, temp around 60F. Course is well designed but with no run, some holes were difficult to reach in the allotted strokes. Be glad to get the grass out of its dormant state. Course was dry-ish despite recent rains with only a couple of fairways retaining water. Good company with Piper and Jim.

Not worth it

I wish I had at least one good thing to say about it but I don’t. The staff was rude , ineffective, 5 1/2 hour round. Literally any other golf course or even a driving range is better than this.

Golfin Lor

First time on the course for me and my brother (who is a golf pro) and we loved it. Didn't hurt that is was 73 degrees in February, but we loved the course and the experience. Highly recommend and we can't wait to make this a regular place we play.
