Mountain View at Callaway Gardens Resort
About
Callaway Gardens boasts two different 18-hole golf courses, but it’s much more than just a golfing destination. Situated amid the southernmost foothills of the Appalachians, the resort was created in 1952 as an educational, horticultural, and recreational facility. The mission was to embrace the beauty of the natural environment and preserve the natural resources offered by the wetlands and forests. Playing either golf course you’ll be surrounded by pristine landscapes abundantly filled with native wildlife. The Mountain View Course is the longer and more challenging of the two. While it may not have as much water as the aptly named Lake View, the Mountain View golf course will truly test your shot-making abilities with narrow fairways tightly lined with trees and several tricky doglegs. One hole where you’ll encounter water is the signature par-5 sixth, where both the tee and approach shots are over water.

Great hole! Photo submitted by dongolf0123 on 04/21/2014
Great course
The course was in excellent condition for January great staff
Mountain course in November
Mountain view is good challenging course. The fairways were in good shape and the greens were rolling very fast. Overall, enjoyable course and it's a good deal for under $50 a round.
Past PGA tour event played here
Considering time of year played, course in very good shape. Not crowded at all when we played (mid day) therefore round was completed in less than four hours. Will b returning in the future.
Golf
I really enjoyed this golf course. It was in better condition than what I was expecting. I never felt rushed with pace of play. Worth the drive and price. Can't wait to play there again.
Great course
Nice little course nestled in the Georgia hills. Considering it’s mid-October, the course was in really good shape. Tee through green is well maintained and the greens are firm, making it a good challenge. Definitely recommend this track for the avid golfer.
Everything was great accept the attendant behind the desk that morning tries to say someone had already been there with my reservation # hieever they did get me out about 30 minutes later so still a good day overall
Great Holiday Weekend
Great holiday weekend getting to play Mountain View the day after seeing the Braves baseball game. The course conditions have greatly improved since April. Kudos to the course superintendent and grounds crew.
CALLAWAY MOUNTAIN VIEW COURSE
The green condition is average as they were not rolled properly and there were lots of sand fillings.
Overall course layout is so-so as they were not much of a challenge.
Great Shape!
Mtn View is much more enjoyable to play now compared to 3-4 months ago. The course superintendent has successfully revived the fairways and greens to what this course used to be.
RANGE CLOSED on Sunday Afternoon
Had a tee time on Sunday and I was informed when I arrived that the staff closed the range because it needed to be cut ?? Really on a Sunday Afternoon ??? The man at the counter was extremely rude when we asked why the range was closed and did not care about trying to make things right. This course has so much potential but the conditions were average but not worth what they charge for a green fee. Maybe one day Callaway will return to what it once was. If you want to play a nice resort style course I would stay away and look into the Robert Trent Jones Trail Course in Auburn, Al.
Mountain View
Iv played the course in the past and it was great but this go around course was in awful shape greens weren’t the best and the whole course was really just caked in mud from where they did an areation wasn’t a lot of grass to hit off in most of the course think they chose a late time to do an areation
Fun design, turf will get better
This is a very fun design, I'm sure really difficult from the tips (as it was a Buick Open site). Greens hold well, feel smooth and not too fast (given that some have significant slopes on a mountain course) but are just a bit bumpy and the putt gets thrown off as it slows down. Fairways still kind of brown at this point but reasonable roll (it had just rained last night) and even in the brown portions the ball sits up well. A very good value for the price, pretty, fast pace of play and some real decisions as to how aggressive you want to be on the approach shot.
Beautiful Day
Great golf course. Fairways were dryer than usual. Greens were lightening fast, too. Pace of play was ok considering how busy the course was at 11:00 am. Always a treat to play at The Gardens.
Nice layout. Beautiful place.
Course holds water very badly. Fairways were soaked. Make sure it’s been dry for several days before playing.
Great experience
August 25, 2018 a business partner and myself booked a round and were very impressed with the facility and the conditions of the course. Mountain View is the PGA level course and it was in very good condition in spite of the heat in the summer. Due to the dry conditions and time of day the greens were fast, but my wedge shots were able to stick and my problem was hitting puts past the hole. Regardless, the day was great and golf now made it better because of the Hot Deal price.
