Callaway Resort & Gardens

Tee boxes, fairways, and most traps are in good shape. is in great shape. Greens are still not quite up to Callaway gardens standard

Was scheduled to play lakeview but maintenance closed the course and had us play mountain view the tees and fairways were well maintened but the greens were not as nice as lakeview.

The course is nice, tee boxes could use some attention. Coolers are throughout the course but with no water. Could and should be better for the price you pay?

Greens are atrocious, staff is less than thrilled to be there, range is abysmal as well as communication and coordination of range balls. Greens are poorly kept and patchy. The fairways are nice but I aceragr a 260-270 drive and I was hitting 320.

I could’ve gone to RTJ and spent less money.

This course use to be a shining star right out side the Columbus area. The greens are terrible, the course is hard as asphalt, and the amenities are less that stellar. The Staff all but want to be there, hardly any one smiles, no one knows what’s going on half the time, and the course leaves you feeling like you should have just stayed in town and played a 1 star location.

Supposedly a resort course but it is way worse than 90-95% of other courses in the area..the first tee is nicer than this place… they have lost their greens it’s an absolute rip off what they are charging a rack rate here, to think how beautiful Callaway Gardens is and they can’t maintain a course any better than this with the huge staff they have here?

Had a really good lunch at champions grill that was the highlight.. lol.. course is in really really bad shape, huge spots on the green some 50-75% gone with only a small 15 foot circle of grass for them to change pin locations in. They are all like concrete as well, no shot will hold watched our balls land on greens all day and bounce 6-8 feet in the air and keep going, literally even landed short 5-10 yards and watched balls then hit the green go off long.. I am all for fast greens but these are like concrete.. bunkers had hardly any sand in them at all.. won’t be back here until major renovations take place.

The pics of this course on GolfNow and online must be from several years ago. This place is a dumpster fire greens are dead down to dirt in many places .. it is atrocious and no where near what we paid to be worth it ..

So me and a partner went to play, I booked on hot deal, picked him up was on way to course he was booking for hot deal , app crashed ! When he pulled it back up it was gone! So went to check in he was still trying , couldn’t get it so he was just gonna pay standard rate so as a senior citizen at a 4:00 tee time with 90 degrees out she charged him $71.00!!! The course is in horrible shape ! Greens are dying or dead down to dirt and the bunkers have the liners all sticking up through the place.. this course is not worth a $25.00 round if that.. and it’s considered a resort !!! I will never be back here for sure!! Check the pics of the greens and bunkers.. then restaurant was supposed to be open till 9 according to sign in cart and was closed up and locked at 5:00!!

Staff were amazing. Course environment was amazing. Some of the tee boxes were in bad shape. The fairways were all decent to very good. Some of the greens had some bald spots, but nothing was horrendous. We paid $69 per golfer, but I feel like $45-55 would have been more appropriate.

Solid play. Greens need a little work but not terrible. Staff was good.

I played this course about 15 years ago and had a great time…nice course, well maintained.

This time was very different. Many of the tee boxes are very chewed up with bald spots, and a number of the greens have large brown areas (and the hot season hasn’t started yet!)

The fairways are in ok condition.

My biggest criticism is the bunkers. Most of the greens are well bunkered-it’s the only challenging thing about this course-fair enough. But all of the bunkers had mud, or a very thin layer of sand over mud in the bottoms. The sand on the sides was very wet and hard-obviously hadn’t been raked in a long time. If you’re going to heavily bunker a resort course, at least take care of the bunkers so that hi and mid-handicappers have a chance of getting out. I am a mid-handicap player, fairly good in sand…and I struggled in the sand. I played with three hi-handicappers who -not once-got out of a bunker within 3 strokes.

This could be a nice course if Callaway would maintain it, don’t waste your money now…there’s much better public course for less money!
