Greens are improving!

Staff is very friendly and accommodating. GolfPass deal is a great value. Overall course conditions are improving and should continue to get better as summer growth occurs. Back nine greens are much better than the front side.

Same Ole situation

The mountain course continues to struggle with their conditioning. The tees and fairways are shaggy, the bunkers are not drug daily and are constant hardpan, and the greens are horrid. Getting a putt to hold a line is next to impossible and if you hole a putt, it's an absolute miracle.

The only thing going for this place is the fact it used to be in the rotation on the PGA tour. The layout is stellar, and the difficulty is next to none. I just wish they could find a greenskeeper that could improve things some.

Lakeview Callaway Gardens

You would expect more from a resort course. The greens were not in great shape and the fairways were really hard. I would expect the fairways to be hard since no rain in the area in awhile but the greens are a different story.

Absolutely terrible!

Unless you are able to get a golf now tee time for less than 30 bucks-you are wasting your time and money. I keep trying to give Mountain View a chance, but it maintains the esteemed position as the worst golf course in the Columbus, GA area!

So disappointing!

What course are yall reviewing??? Or were you paid ??

I cannot fathom any golfer giving this more than a single start review unless they typically play in a cow pasture! Has to be employees of Callaway or they are giving discounts for reviews something is up , it is atrocious.. greens are dead other than the poanna , don’t bother reading a putt as your ball will absolutely not stay on any line it will jump left and right all over the place off the poanna .. the fairways are hard as a rock and the bunkers are unkept and are about like hitting off the cart path with areas of the liners showing through .. had I paid full price for this course I would have pressed charges as it would have been criminal..lol certainly will not be back to this pitiful course.. such a shame as it has so much potential, but literally needs a six figure investment into it at this point..

Awful. Terrible. Don’t do it.

Calling it a goat track is too nice. This place could be beautiful but it is indeed awful. The greens are actually unplayable. When you put it looks like you skipping stones on the river. It’s so bad a 2 foot putt is impossible because of how much it bounces. Weeds cover the “greens” and “fairways”. Just run away don’t do it…play anywhere else

Nice layout, horrible condition conditions

Course conditions are extremely poor bear spots on the fairways. The greens are basically sand with little patches of grass. However, the sand of the bunkers was perfect. Only paid $26 on a hot deal so that was good.

Callaway Mountain View Course

These course is absolutely ridiculous in maintenance of greens and tee boxes. You get 2 types of greens 1. Completely mauled up , no grass, dirt or

2. Poa Annua all over it so you can get a true roll as it hits these hard mounds of cut and growing quicker than the grass green.

Insane that a course in a town built on the resort, and former host of a pga tournament, has allowed this type of care.

A little pre-emergent in the greens and tee boxes isn’t much to ask. Now what you do with greens that are so uncared there isn’t even grass, and I mean NO GRASS can’t be helped. And about 1/3 of the greens are that way.

Run down

The gentlemen that took our bags was the best part of this golf course. Tee boxes and greens are in terrible shape. I can’t believe they want the public to play this course in the condition it is in!!

Staff is Terrific

We interacted with five staff members from start to finish and each one of them were super nice and helpful. We played the mountain course and got food in the cafe. The greens were rough on the beginning of the front nine and got better each and every hole. The course has challenging layout with well place bunkers, but is fair and playable. I cannot stress enough how awesome the staff was from pulling into the parking lot until we pulled out!

Great course, but not at its best

The course is picturesque and we always enjoy playing here. The greens at present are full of weeds and the fairways were quite muddy and grass was brown. They aerated a few weeks ago. Something must have gone wrong. I am sure they will take care of it and bring the course back to the way it always has been.

Very Disappointed

Unbelievable disappointment at @CallawayGardens. Mountain View course has such "good bones" with a great layout and PGA history, but the conditions are woeful—bare greens except for weeds, crabgrass fairways, and total neglect. It’s clear @HerschendEnt is a theme park company, not a golf one.
