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.

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.

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.

Terrible greens, not much grass.

I've played this course several times. Greens are terrible, such a shame. Scalped fringes due to equipment and poaannua in the greens is real bad with some nothing but po. Fairways don't have much grass , hardpan and dry. Tee boxes are in saf shape. Mostly sand. Bunkers are a mess with several showing the underlaying. Just a shame!!
