Apple Mountain Golf Club

I’m a big fan of this course. The front nine is wide open so it helps to get off to a good start. The big nine is a little tighter but not really bad. The greens had just been aerated but they are better than last week when I played. Typically the greens are in great shape and roll well.

The grains were in terrible shape played there a month ago. They were in terrible shape. The course signs for each hole were in the wrong place. Very confusing.

Greens are still in bad shape. They changed all the former hole designations to be in reverse now. Golf cart was empty of gas.

Had to bring another cart out to us. Holes are missing labeled.

New carts are a huge improvement. But a hard pass on the greens. Worst I’ve ever seen. Not playable at all.

Roughs were 2 to 3” tall. Miss the fairway by just a little bit and it cost you a ball. I had 5 balls like that. Greens were 50/50 dirt or grass.

My biggest complaint was the signage. This was my first time. The gps did not match the sign at the hole. And what little signage there was hand painted arrows. It’s a compact course and the cart paths have a lot of intersections. NOBODY warned me about this. Felt like an idiot driving around looking for the right tee box. 2x I teed off going to the wrong flag. Horrible.

The layout was fine, but I won’t be entertaining going back until they complete the renovations. Whenever that is.

I was told the club was recently purchased and I’m hoping there is still an Agronomist on staff. I played a few months ago with good course conditions. This round was horrible. Al of the green are missing grass in multiple places making putting almost impossible. Much of the rough off the fairways is about 2 inches deep. So miss the fairway at all and you have a difficult shot moving the ball, if you can find it. The staff is welcoming and friendly. The pro shop has little to offer in terms of food or drinks and there was no beverage cart. There are photos in the pro shop of a coming remodel. Yet those were there a few months ago and nothing had changed. The carts now have great gps. Upon arriving you are quickly told you can’t drive the carts in the parking lot due to a liability issue. This after years of driving your cart to your car and loading up. The course when in good shape is fun to play. As golfers we can only hope that new management quickly addresses the course conditions.

Looked like a few greens are struggling. But enjoy the rounds. Fun track.

Tee boxes and fairways were fine. However almost every green was burnt and had major dead spots or no grass. Was NOT told this upon booking. It was also hot outside the day we played. The course did have water stations on the course. I wanted a Gatorade to help with the amount of sweating I had. During the turn I went inside and they ONLY had water and a handful of sodas. We seen absolutely no marshal on the course and the two groups in front of played so slow we was waiting 10-15 on every hole until they finally allowed us to play through.

I drove 60 miles one way to play Apple Mountain on Thursday. I drive that far a few times a year because I like the course. When we arrived on Thursday, the staff said,’We have brand new carts today. That comment did not indicate the chaos that followed. The new sign in the parking lot said, “No carts in the parking lot.” This forced us to carry our clubs about 50 feet to load the cart and then drive about 200 yards to the first tee. On the first hole we were required to play Cart path only ever though the fairway was dry. The GPS on the cart kept us o the cart paths for the first four holes until the nice man from the check in came out and turned off the cart paths only on our GPS. The GPS continued to plague us with oddities: it jumped back to the fifth hole three times while playing the back nine. I will not play there again if they keep their no carts in the parking lot policy. It just made a senior golf walk and walk. I walked 11,000 steps in 95 degree heat.

We booked on GolfNow. Nobody said anything about not having any water up there for two weeks. The greens were burned up. We should have gotten a discount. We drove an hour and 20 minutes to get there. We have played there many times before.

The greens were burned up. We should have received a discount and be told upfront that it was in that condition. We have played up there several times over the past couple of years.

The Greens were Dead and the Front 9 was closed for half the morning.

Fairways were good and Tee Boxes were good

Enjoyed my third round . Played from blue tees with two single digit handicappers. Too much for me, struggled trying not to embarrass myself 😞

Played Apple Mountain several times and the ruff is extra thick currently.

Really like the changes the new owners are making.

Will continue to recommend and play.

My wife and I purchased the tee time discount for GN members and played at Apple Mountain in Clarksville, GA.

We booked an afternoon tee time and arrived an hour early and they said the course was wide open so they graciously offered us to go early.

Who needs to hit balls and chip and putt prior right 🤣⛳️.

The course was in great shape and we had a great day!

Definitely recommend playing this course.

Course is going downhill fast. New owners making all the wrong changes and not helping the course. The starter they have doesn’t know the difference between the fairway and the green. Ball marks don’t get fixed. They think they can just add red stakes in the rough and make it harder. Wrong it’s bad. Groups stacked right behind each other. Rude staff. $20 course at most. Go play anywhere else for a good time. 1/10 recommendation.
