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.

Potential
If anyone ever had the finances to upgrade the overall conditions the the “elks” it could be a premier destination for that area.. Great layout…
Great shape!
Course conditions were vastly improved since I played there in 2022.
Tee boxes and greens were in excellent shape.
Good Day for Golf
First time out for the year. Very temperate, overcast day, great for playing. The course is nice and quiet, no traffic noise at all. There weren't a lot of golfers out. We teed off at 10:30 and had zero wait on any hole. Very pleasant experience.
Unbelievable condition for time of year
Tee box to fairways to green were beautiful. A little wet but with the Spring we are having it is expected.
WOW
April 4th and course was in great condition. Green were cut and rolled and fairways we're beautiful. Traps need some work but still playable in the most part.
Wet Windy Day of Golf
The course was lush. The greens were in good shape. The weather took down a sizeable amount of leaves on the back nine that the grounds crew was trying to address, which made for delays searching for balls just off the fairway. Front nine was cleared and enjoyable to play.
SURPRISE. SURPRISE. SURPRISE
BThe course is really great and very interesting. The greens are great and tricky.
Fairways are great.
Great surprise when playing. I enjoyed myself and played good.
The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Very good golf course with only one problem
I liked everything about the course it was very well maintained, fairways,greens, bunkers and the T boxes. My only complaint I have about the course is the cart paths are very rough with a lot of bumps and tree roots which is hard on your body even when you're going relatively slow on the path. If it wasn't for that I would give the golf course a five-star rating. Overall excellent course with a very fair price.
Decent course
I’ve golfed here before. For the money it’s ok. Had a bad experience where group behind us hit my partner with a ball. Needless to say he was upset and yelled which prompted one of them to ride up to me and instead of apologizing which would have been the appropriate response proceeded to threaten me. Told me he worked there and could throw us off the course. Needless to say that pretty much so ruined the rest of the round.
Beautiful greens
Greens were in great shape. Fairways were average at best. Cart paths were pathetic! Golf carts were filthy. But I still enjoy playing this course because of the greens!
Great course!
I am usually playing as a single during the week! I book through golf now to get good deals! Today I got paired up with the nicest twosome! Bob and Mark! Everyone I run into on the course is always so nice and the employees are too!!! Also, the pace of play is really good. The course is in great shape! Beautiful greens and everyone seems to fix their ball marks which is a plus!! I will definitely be coming back!
