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.

Electric X-mas Tree on hole 15 Photo submitted by GolfUMK on 11/09/2020
Has potential but needs a LOT of work
For the money this course was just not cutting it. Grass on the tee boxes was super long, the difference between fairway and rough was minimal, and the greens were in bad shape. There are some cool holes and scenery on the lakeside is nice but in order for this course to get better they will need to seriously invest in course management. Do not see myself playing here again until changes are made.
mountain view
mountain view course was played because the lakeview course had a small tournament.
tees were ok
fairways and rough were perfect.
most greens had some bad spots so we had to move the putt to a better location on the green.
most greens were in execellent shape when moved.
Mountain View getting better
Fairways were excellent. Layout was excellent
Green were better than last time we played it. POA gone but some bare spot were still there . Green rolled better but still very slow. Pace of play was great. 3 1/2. Hours! Whispering pig BQ was great!!
Very nice and worth the money if you can get a discounted round.
If you can get a business discount or one through the golf now app the course is worth the 40$ to play. One of the nicest around the area
Not what it used to be
The staff is great and the design is great but the lack of upkeep and condition of the course was HORRIBLE! Fairways haven't been cut in days. Tee boxes are rough, but worst of all the greens! Some have serious lack of grass and all have weeds...actual weeds sticking up 3/8 of an inch! One green completely covered in goose crap. Definitely not worth the price. I can't speak for the condition of Mountain view course (it was where most of the golfers were) but Lakeview isn't worth the cabbage.
The course was in pretty good shape.Staff were very friendly, working onn repairing all the green., the lake course was great
Poor Greens
Course has bad drainage and the Greens were awful. Staff was kind and Champions Restaurant was good.
Nice Layout
Course was in OK shape, but the greens need some TLC. This course is not what it once was and it could be so much better with a little more attention to the greens and traps.
ok course
tees were ok
fairways were ok
greens were horrible
pace was great -under 4 hours
staff was very friendly
Lake better shape than Mountain
Played the Lakeview course last week. It is in a little better shape than the Mountain View. Poanna in quite a few greens on both.
