Nestled in the southernmost foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Callaway Gardens was created in 1952 to preserve the local environment, from the native wetlands to the abundant forests of mature trees. Golf at Callaway Gardens is a unique experience in that you'll be completely submerged in nature and surrounded by wildlife. The resort’s two golf courses, Lake View and Mountain View, are challenging enough for avid golfers but they are scenic and playable enough to appeal to players of all skill levels. The Lake View Course is the original layout. It offers a slightly more player-friendly round with wider fairways and generous greens. There are more water holes on this golf course, nine total, including five holes that are routed along Mountain Creek Lake. The signature par-3 10th hole features an intimidating island green.

The course is in terrible shape, nothing is being maintained. The greens are unputtable mud and weeds. Save your money!

Weeds Weeds everywhere

This course, driving range, and putting green were awful. There are weeds on every aspect of course. Greens had little weeds on each one which made putting like a pin ball machine. You had to guess the bounce. Fairways, rough, and fringe area were the same. My golf partners paid $80 they said!! We all were very disappointed. At the turn which was after the 10th hole there was a snack place. No real food just snacks???

Work in progress

We get out to Callaway about once a year, so we are very familiar with these courses. Very disappointed in the overall conditions. The course staff was excellent and knew there were some areas that needed a lot of work. They let us know they are under new ownership and we’re excited to see what’s coming. Looking forward to seeing Callaway return to its glory days!!

This course has a refreashing view.

It was my first experiance at lake course in galaway garden.

As I heard from friend, its view is real healing.

I refreahed my mind and played golf with comfort condition.

If my friends ask me recommendation of golf course, I will recommend lake view course in galaway garden.

Overgrown

Course has been invaded by some type grass that makes the greens bumpy. If you kill the invasive grass on all the course the place would be all brown.

Love to play at Callaways

We always have a great time playing at Callaways. I do worry that the poa annua is taking over many of the greens. Hope they can be helped as everything else about the course is great!!!!

Lakeview course was closed, no communication

Got to the pro shop and was told Lakeview course was closed due to rain. We were able to switch to Mountain course, but this was not communicated at all before driving over an hour from Atlanta. Not sure what we would have done if the Mountain course was fully booked. Fuzzy and muddy greens, but that is understandable given recent rain/season.

It is so difficult to play golf.

I booked 8:10 lake course 3 persons.

But I can't have 18 courses round. So I stopped the round after 9 holes. Because the ground was so wet and all holes

is cart path only. It is so difficult to play golf.

The Lake View Course at Callaway Gardens was actually unplayable due to wet conditions so they moved all tee times and golfers to the Mountain Course which created quite a slow down and a very congested course.

Despite the slow play we enjoyed the round which took almost 5-1/2 hrs to complete.

Callaway Gardens should have advised that the LakeView course was unplayable and not allowed tee times. They did their best to accommodate all of the golfers but it just created a painfully slow day.
