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.

Classic design with room to drive the ball and smallish greens guarded by bunkers.

Classic design and old school customer service that made golf so popular. I wish we'd scheduled an earlier tee time so we could've played 36 holes. (We were able to squeeze in a 3rd nine - still didn't score worth a hoot.) Tree lined, lots of bunkers and pretty past greens. Fun, fun, fun, and sneaky difficult to score. The rough is probably a bear in the spring and summer. We'll be back.

great day at Mountain View

I really enjoyed my round at Mountain View. Surprisingly there were not many golfers on the course and I played at a very quick pace. It was a little long for my game from the white tees (6600+) but I buckled up and gave it a go. The greens rolled true once you got on them. Most are well guarded by deep bunkers in front (as should be expected by a course that hosted a tour event, the Buick Challenge as recently as 2002). The well placed fairway bunkers seemed to have" ball magnets" in them as many of my better drives seemed to find them. I can't wait for my next opportunity to give it a go.

No bad holes on this course

A former site of a PGA tour event, this course has plenty to offer. Built in the GA pines, it requires long accurate tee shots to score well. Not as much variety in the design of the holes-the only real downside.
