I sync my Calendars to a Google Calendar, and my Reminders to iCloud on my iOS devices. However, in Mountain Lion, this doesn't seem to be possible.

Yes you can. Just add your google account from System Preferences as usual. Then open iCal > Preferences > Accounts > iCloud and untick "Enable this account"
