Rating Snapshot
About
Apollo Elks Country Club, situated just northeast of Pittsburgh, is considered one of the area's must-play golf courses. It has appeal for a wide range of skill levels with a layout that is challenging enough for seasoned golfers but also not too difficult for beginners to approach. There is an interesting mix of holes ranging from reachable par 5s to short, tough par 3s and each hole has a distinct character. The greens are fast and the gently rolling terrain provides some subtle breaks that can be tricky. Bunkering is sparsely but strategically placed along the fairways and greensides. There are also a few water hazards that come into play at Apollo Elks Country Club. The round has plenty to hold your attention but don't forget to stop and admire the beautiful western Pennsylvania scenery.

Hidden gem
Great layout and better than what my friends thought.
Excellent conditioned course! Always one of the better manicured greens in Western Pennsylvania. Unbeatable value!!!
A lot of different playing hole layouts
No 2 holes are the same, Course was in great shape for this time of year. Clubhouse is rundown but that should not matter when you are just golfing. I liked the course and will be going back.
Very Average, Terrible Greens
Very average course. Drove over an hour to get there because the reviews were all good. Got there and was disappointed. The greens were like putting on shag carpet. Fairways were average. It was wide open so our twosome finished in 3 hours which was nice, but the condition was average at best.
value
nice greens and fairways a few leaves on back nine but its October. wroth the trip
Wonderful course
Best greens around Course is in great condition Price is right
worth the money
Good greens and fairways, ball held on greens not like a county park( north) witch has no water per usual and a good staff, worth the trip and money.
Good variety of hole layouts
Good variety of hole layouts which make the course more challenging.
Apollo Elks terrific greens
This Elks facility has seen better days, but the staff does a terrific job with the course. The layout is good, with virtually no parallel fairways. Most impressive are the greens, which are in perfect shape and consistent.
It shares a stigma with it's nearby course Links at Spring Church; both are believed to be too far to drive from the general area, but this location is easily accessible, with little traffic and good roads.
Great Value
The actual course itself is very nice, not very long but still a nice layout with great conditions. Greens weren't exactly fast but they were smooth and well maintained. The main building is old and run down, there's an abandoned pool with weeds growing all around, and the pro shop was small and kind of dirty. If you ignore all that, for the price they are charging (especially in the fall) I would very much recommend this course! Went on a Monday afternoon and paid $20 for 18 with a cart and had the course to myself and played in 2 hours.
It has a nice layout
The course has a nice layout. Good variety. Some holes fairly easy and some much more difficult.
What a course!!!!!!!
I played this course about 30 years ago. It was just okay. Played it for the first time a couple of weeks ago and was totally impressed. From tee box to green the course conditions were perfect. I will definitely be back again.
