Callahan Golf Links

It was a hot day with heat index in the 102-103 degree range. We were surprised to see as many golfers playing that we did given the conditions, in my opinion that speaks well for the course that players would risk heat related issues to play.

The staff have always been great and the course looked to be well tended to. The fairways were well tended and cut and made playing off the fairway easy. The greens still have some tending needed but are doing well despite recent damage.

Has a few off holes, few greens on the back need repair.

I’ve been coming to this course for about 4 years now and it is consistently good, staff is friendly, and you can actually tell they put a lot of effort into maintaining the course. I hope a couple of membership spots open soon so my wife and I can join.

Callahan course conditions were almost great. One green(#13 I think) had some wash out areas on upper portion of green. Other than that almost perfect. If it is your first time playing there, hopefully you'll be paired up with someone to help you get around the course.

I have played here for years and it really hasn’t changed much. There are no amenities to speak of. No bathrooms on the course. No water coolers on the course. Usually no water/ soap in the ball washers. The course layout is good but you’re rarely hitting off actual grass. The employees can be hit or miss on friendliness and you may or may not see a bev cart during your round. The biggest change I have seen is the price of a round here. It’s gone up considerably. We play here because it’s close to home but wouldn’t be my first choice unfortunately.

No fancy clubhouse just golf. Despite the weeks long drought and soaring temps I was impressed with the lush greens. Course was in good condition and the layout I found fun and challenging. The staff were all friendly and welcoming.

Downsides:

1. Pace of play. No marshal to get people moving or allow others to play through.

2. No toilet facilities on the course aside from one porta-potty I saw.

3. People who won't repair they're pitch-marks. (Universal problem, not just here)

Given the above I would recommend and play again.

Pretty course with decent layout, only complain is there are no actual bathrooms on the course

Course is in poor conditions with most of the Tee boxes ineeding major repair. some of the greens are nearly unplayable and the rest have a lot of sand on them. Probably the worst conditions I’ve ever seen at this course. Most of the bunkers were in poor condition but the major issue is no water coolers placed around the golf course. no card person supplying any liquid refreshment all day and it was probably in the low to mid 90s. I don’t know who made a decision to take the coolers off this course but that is a very poor decision. Pace of play for a Monday morning was slow but no marshals on the golf course. This place is never in the best condition in the summer but this is probably the worst I’ve ever seen it.. Will probably wait until September to try and play there again

Good value compared to local competitors. There are a few rough spots but those are the healthiest bent grass greens I've seen in GA in a long time. They do have an etiquette problem however. My twosome fixed 6-7 nasty (FRESH) ball marks on every hole. I suspect all the old codgers we saw who were playing speed golf and pressuring other groups. Those greens will never stay nice if that keeps up.

Course was in really good shape, only 1 green in bad shape, 13, 1 tee box needs attention, but course overall was was good, tough layout, big difference from blue tees to white tees, tough course from blues.

In general, the greens are improved and rolling better than the last few times I've played Callahan. One green, I think #13, is very poor.

The ground crews place the tee markers in areas of the boxes that are bare; they need to understand that grass needs a break from continual wear/tear to be healthy.

It's a relatively cheap course, it's a decent routing, and today, the pace was good.
