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
Georgia golf at it's best.
Found a great deal on GolfNow. Bermuda greens were in excellent condition. It's a stroll through the beauty of nature; course is very scenic and peaceful with just the birds chirping and deer and squirrels playing.
Not a value or worth the drive
I played this golf course in early August. The golf course is in decent condition, greens are nice, but the course gets play simply because if its name. Just off the fairway on every hole, nothing is maintained. It's unbelievable people pay $100 dollars to play golf out there, not worth the drive if traveling from Atlanta.
worth the drive
Our foursome drove down and played both courses. It was great. Tough but great. We plan to make this an annual event. I only wish that there were more dining choices in pine mountain.
Great course if you can play for $60.
Very nice. This was my first time playing it. Greens were in good shape. We got caught behind a group and had a 5 hour round. I enjoyed the course and would recommend it.
30th Anniversay Round
Mid-week play at 2:00 on a day when the weather was perfect. Staff in pro shop were extremely helpful and accommodating. Course was undergoing a few repairs due to the rain system that passed through a week before we arrived, but overall was in great shape. If we are in the area in the future, we will stop and play this course again.
Callaway Gardens-Mountain View
If you like sand, this is the course for you. A majority of the holes have a couple of bunkers in front of the green. However, if you can hit the ball in the air, you should have no problems. If you are looking for a nice relaxing round of golf, head to this place. Takes a few holes to get use to the greens (just a little slow), but when you do, they roll nice and true. A couple of par 3's are pretty long, but they are a nice change to the 140 to 150 yard common holes. Water comes in to play on a few holes, which makes things interesting. Staff is extremely friendly.
Fast greens
Lot of fun the greens were not in the best shape but everything else was great.
Course in great condition
Other than having to wait for 15 minutes on each hole (I played as a single and the first 6 holes in 30 mins), after the 6th, the course was in great condition. It was Father's Day and they allowed a 5 some which is okay if the course is quiet but it wasn't. The fact they never once allowed the twosome behind to play through is a disgrace. Their reasoning was they couldn't go anywhere as there were 3 foursomes in front. This is a lame excuse. One of their players even went back to re-tee when he couldn't find his original tee shot. What a joke!!! No rangers so was stuck in 90 degree heat waiting. I shot 77 so it's not that I played badly, but slow play is killing the game and this fivesone is as guilty as anyone.
I skipped ahead and played 17&18 in 10 minutes and went back to play 11-16. It took me 3 hours to play 10 holes. Scandalous.
Mountain View
Excellent Course! Staff was extremely friendly. Would recommend to any avid golfer.
Good solid layout, alot of nice golf holes, and in good condition.
Overall, it is in good condition. The bunkers are a severe penalty as most are very deep and there is not much sand. Fairways are quite hard and the bermuda grass is still coming in. The layout was very nice with alot of different and interesting holes.
Very scenic
Played the mountain course on a Monday and just about had it to myself. If you're a fan of natural scenery and wildlife, go play this course.
The fairways were in good shape and the greens had just been cut. Challenging course but not overwhelming.
Great challenge
Weather was fair at best, rain squalling all day, and wind blowing. Only added to the test. Even with the conditions and the length from the tips, probably one of my better rounds in a long time. Fairways are just starting to come of of dormancy, and were a little "skinny". Tees were nice, and greens were okay considering the time of year. Had a hard time holding the greens, even with my high ball flight. Also, had to deal with some seeding and fertilizer spots on the greens, but all in all, not too bad. The bunkers were excellent, as usual. Not too much sand; just right. Got out at 2:20 PM on a hot deal, and was finished and in the parking lot by 5:45. Played through one foursome on # 5, and after that, didn't see anyone else until the back 9. Didn't use the range or get anything from the snack bar. $7 dollars for a bag of balls, and it only holds 40 or so, is a little steep. Give it another month or so, and this course will be " jam up ".
excellent golf course but very poor and rude staff
Ironically, an excellent golf course with an extremely rude clerk (or manager because he seemed to be teaching another staff). I feel that if you are not a native English speaker, you should never go there. I felt that I was treated like a "monkey" by a rude clerk (or manager) there when I was checking in. No matter how excellent the course is, I would never ever go there again nor recommend to my friends as long as that rude guy is working there. It is pretty sad that this good golf course has that kind of unprofessional staff.
Great course
Great course. Every aspect of the course, tee boxes, fairway, rough, bunkers, and greens were all in excellent shape. This was my first time playing Mountain View course, and after previously playing the Lake View course, Mountain View was a lot more challenging than I expected. Really enjoyed the whole experience. Will definitely be back to play again.
Great experience, scenic beauty.
I have lived in columbus for 5 years and decided to trek up to play the Lakes Course. It was a little busy on Sunday Aft. So they put me on the Mtn course for the same rate. Great Layout, Grass was just beginning to come back to greenery. The greens were still a bit dormant and a bit sketchy (March 30th). The scenery though was fantastic. I can't say enough about it. Challenging greens due to small size, but not overly complicated like Maple Ridge or as big as Bull Creek. Would definitely recommend the excursion out for anyone!!!
World class layout
Still winter golf not greening up yet but had a wonderful day meet a nice couple. We had the same tee time it was a great day
Always a pleasure
The Mountain View course at Callaway Gardens is always a pleasure to play, and it starts right from the beginning at check in. Their range complex is awesome. there's virtually nothing that you can't work on there. The course itself is is highly maintained and worth playing. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
