Lake View at Callaway Gardens Resort

About
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.

Birthday Round
My husband chose this course for a birthday round. We've played here before and it never disappoints. It is a relatively short course but can challenge even the skilled player. My only complaint was the greens are weedy which caused some problems when putting. I'm sure that problem will be resolved. We will visit again.
Great course
If they can get rid of the poa annua on the greens it will be perfect. Staff is great
Great Track
Lakeview is still fun to play and requires multiple tee shots to post a good score. Pretty crowded course so pace can be a little challenging
Terrible pace of play!
I’ve been golfing once a week almost for the past 3-4 years and I’ve never seen more terrible pace of play than when I played at callaway lake course. Didn’t even get to play but 12 holes because we had to skip so many trying to finish the round. Groups behind us were driving into us while we were waiting for the group ahead of us. Just horrible experience. Only good thing is the course is beautiful so we had “a-lot” more time to enjoy the view.
Best around
I live an hour away. I pass about 10 golf courses coming here. It’s just that cool a place.
nice weather, nice view
it was awesome play ever been.
but it was too hard to find my ball on rough.
rough should be shorter..
Good course
The course is well kept and challenging the rough is ruff so play the fairway
