On the Road Again … Soon
This part of the newsletter is normally devoted to a review of courses we have recently visited. This time, it's to revisit a resort I went to long ago, and which Betty and I and friends will visit again in March.
Callaway Gardens GA is about 60 miles southwest of Atlanta. Is there a relationship to Callaway Golf Equipment? No. Cason Callaway, a textile baron, started this resort in the early 1900s to create a resort with a wholesome family area, much like Morton Arboretum in Chicagoland. The BIG difference is that they have 63 holes of golf!
Three words stand out from my previous trip to Callaway: Value, Golf, and Food!. This resort gives you much more for your dollar than most comparable resorts in the U.S.
Callaway has 63 holes of championship golf surrounded by crystal lakes, wooded shore and lush landscape (sweet azalea blooms) It reminds me of Amen Corner at the Masters. The courses are Mountain View, home of the PGA Buick Challenge, held each Fall, Lake View, with nine water holes, Garden View, the original course in an incredible setting, and Sky View, a nine-hole course for families and warm-ups.
Do you enjoy southern style cooking like hams breads jellies and desserts? Do you like plenty to eat? Then this is the place for you. Eating was a highlight for me when I last visited. I have been told that it has only gotten better, with seven restaurants on property.
Callaway Gardens is also a great family destination. Activities include bird watching, fly-fishing, swimming, hiking and biking, boating, and a gun club. Something for every interest.
