Mountain View at Callaway Gardens Resort
Rating Snapshot
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. Greens didn't roll as well as expected
Fantastic layout. Very good condition. Greens didn't roll as true as I expected
Excellent conditions on all 36 holes !
I play a lot of golf on many courses. This course was excellent! Best course I've played in years . Layout, condition , staff. HIGHLY recommended. All 36 holes in perfect condition.
Thank you very much for your kind words, rating, and for choosing Callaway Gardens. We hope you are able to play again soon.
Top Notch Golf Course
Very similar to the Pinehurst courses. Enjoyable round of golf on a first class course. Lots of variety and great conditions for midsummer. I think I liked the Lake course a tad better but they were both great.
Thank you for taking the time to post about your playing experience at Callaway Gardens. We hope that you are able to play our courses again if you are in Georgia. We appreciate your business.
Glad it's back
Was hesitant to come back to Mountain View again. The last few times I have played the greens on the back 9 have been terrible. Winter kill or just plain rot; they were in bad shape for awhile. Got a great deal on the round so decided it was worth the risk. Greens were fine all the way around. Callaway course is always well kept so the sub-par greens were a surprise, the fact that is seemed to last a year was also a surprise. Not to fear now, great to see this classic course back to its fighting weight.
After great difficulty logging in, we are late to say "Thanks!" for the post. We did have some challenges - mostly due to crazy weather - but our team has done a great job and really worked hard on the course. We hope you are in the area and able to play again soon.
Peaceful course
Very nice course. Great customer service. Wonderful practice facility. Generous fairways. Receptive greens. Water is lurking on some holes. I totally enjoyed this course
Thank you for the great course. And, for choosing to play at Callaway Gardens. We hope you'll play here again - maybe try the Lake View course - if you are back in Georgia.
PGA quality at Public prices
The course was fantastic and fabulous shape. The driving range was exceptional and will set away from the course for privacy. From the first tee to the 18th the pace of play was about an hour less than expected four hours. It was exciting to play a course that the pros have played on for the Buick invitational in the past. Highly recommended
Great course
We had a blast playing the course. The only problem we had was using the golf now app. The front and back 9 were reversed in the app from what they are at the course. But I will definitely be going back to this course another day for another round.
Beautiful but challenging course
The longer length and the many traps of this course would attract low handicapped golfers who enjoy challenges Beautifully maintained greens and fairways make it enjoyable for any golfer. We also played the Lakes course which was also beautiful and well maintained but a little more gentle and friendly to seniors and more average golfers
Great round of folf
Course was in excellent condition. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Excellent Golf Course
Incredible course. Callaways Golf Courses never disappoint. A must go!!!
Friends
It is a great challenging golf course. The best part was the friends I got paired with to play. We had fun and the weather was great.
Still a challenge
Course still in good shape and a pleasure to play. The greens and bunkers are in good shape. The fairways are ok for March.
Good deal on GolfNow
I got a great deal on GolfNow. Had I paid full price, I would have been very disappointed in the course. The course was in very good shape considering the recent amount of rain. I would definitely play again if I find the same deal.
Solid Value
Thanks to Golf Now, I was able to secure a tee time on short notice for a great deal. The course was challenging with sloping fairways, lots of sand traps, and the greens quick. I was paired up with another single who had course knowledge which made the day even better. I will definitely share my experience with others.
Always Immaculate
Tight, challenging course. There's a reason the PGA made several stops back in the 2000's here. Course is well maintained! Always groomed to perfection. This is a very beautiful course! I would absolutely recommend playing here at least once! But i assure you, you will wish you booked 36 holes after you play the first 18!!!!!
Greens were in great condition and fast!
Had a great time even though my score didn't. Course was in good condition.
Possibly the Greatest Deal on GolfNow
How many courses on GolfNow have hosted a PGA event? The Mountain View course hosted the Buick Southern Open for many years. This is an outstanding course in top condition. Greens are fast with many subtle and not-so-subtle breaks so placing your approach is key. Woods line most of the holes, with little water, no OB, and no houses. However, multiple large bunkers surround many greens and along some fairways. Part of the Callway Gardens complex. Superb practice facilitiies and a top notch pro shop. A Hot Deal here might be the best value round of golf you will ever play.
Fun
Excellent course. Fairways are forgiving, greens are small, fast and guarded by bunkers. Very scenic especially in the spring.
Diamond in the rough
Classic old style course- better bring all of your shots - elevated greens ; deep bunkers
