Lake View at Callaway Gardens Resort

This course used to be spoken about with reverence. Callaway gardens was synonymous with pristine golf. No longer. The course could be good with just some regular maintenance. Everywhere the grass was too long. Greens, fairways, tee boxes. Grass was growing into the bunkers. It screamed of neglect and disinterest. Hoping this place can make a turnaround.

Lots of hay left behind after mowing. Lots of tee boxes are in bad shape. This course use to be in tremendous shape.

Played during a healing period so the course was gorgeous but greens a little slow. Lake View is a great design and fun course to play. Recommend for any golfer.

I'm hoping it was due to recent rainy weather in the area, but the fairways were so long most of the time you couldn't tell if you were in the fairway or rough. Overall course management seems to have slipped, hoping it is better next time we visit.

Course was an overall pretty good condition, although the greens needed to be Mowed , so that your drive would roll out a little further, and you wouldn’t catch a flier lie

Aside from a few rough tee boxes, the course was in good condition. Great design and nice views

Really enjoyed the ability to hit quality iron shots from the fairways !!

My niece was in town from Florida for memorial weekend and had always wanted to play the lake course. She is a decent player and was very satisfied with her experience. The pro was very cordial and helpful when we checked in. Starter was friendly and informative and got us out a bit early to get in front of a large group that was actually scheduled ahead of ours. Course is in wonderful condition with greens rolling true but not crazy fast. Overall great experience which I highly recommend and intend to enjoy again! Well worth the price of the hot deal.

The course was not as pristine or as well flowered as in past years. But it was still a gorgeous place. A few greens seemed like they had been scalped. But the fairways were wide and welcoming. The greens were pretty slow so a hard hit put was more likely to be short than 6 feet passed the pen. I was happy with that. They seemed pretty flat but I swear I have never hit as many lip-outs in a round. It was a FUN day.

DO NOT play Callaway Gardens at Pine Mountain, GA. Under new management and they don't have a clue about how to maintain a golf course. Both courses are in terrible conditions. Everything (fairways, greens, tee boxes, etc.) overgrown with Poa Annua and other weeds. Greens haven't been mowed or the cups moved in a month. The sand traps are hard pan versus fluffy sand. Tee boxes are approximately 4 foot by 4 foot and ate up with divot marks.

Have played Callaway Gardens numerous times over the last few years. So when an early tee time (7:30 am) was available, I scheduled our weekend four some to play. Arrived on-site and everything (bag drop off, parking, carts, check-in) was normal. Went to the practice putting green and was shocked at the condition. The green was completely infested with Pia Annua to the point where puts bounced all of the place. Went to the 1st tee to tee off. The Marshall shared the course was under new management and the course was not a prestige as it’s former days. He was telling the truth. The course was infested with Poa Annua and other various types of weeds. The greens had not been mowed. The grass height and Poa Annua made it impossible to put anything without a full shoulder turn. Even then the ball would bounce in every direction and end up short. The tee box markers were placed awkwardly to make golfers tee off in a six foot area. The bunkers were hard pan. Not the normal fluffy sand. The fairways and rough were infested with weeds. Not the normal plush Bermuda grass. Basically the overall course quality would not stack up to a $30 municipal course. I highly recommend not playing at Callaway Gardens!!! And a note for Callaway Gardens new management, please get your two courses back in prestige shape!!!

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

Tee boxes and fairways are nice.. greens are filled with poa Anna. Virtually unputtable !
