Apple Mountain Golf Resort
About
Nestled in the rolling hills of Gold Country, Apple Mountain Resort has a dramatic landscape that provides plenty of elevation changes, making it a nearly impossible course to walk. Some of the drops from tee to green are unbelievable, offering unrivaled views of the surrounding mountains. Nearly every hole enjoys a stunning backdrop. The incredibly diverse terrain makes the golf course a challenge regardless of whether you are a novice or a pro. Golfers will have to contend with mature trees, water hazards, and numerous strategically placed bunkers in addition to the uneven lies and blind shots that are a result of the undulating landscape. Apple Mountain Resort's golf course is especially nice to play in the summer since its location enjoys a temperature that is at least a few degrees cooler than the Sacramento Valley.

A pretty Par 3 Photo submitted by Annapics on 03/19/2013
Great Course
Be prepared for huge elevation changes and at times, slow play. Bring plenty golf balls.
One of the best round of play in recent years.
Fantastic weather, beautiful scenery with birds and squirrels, well groomed fairways and greens resulted in the lowest score (8). I haven’t had a single digit for a while and it wassuch satisfying and rewarding, not to mention the couple of birdies and a near miss eagle.
The thing that needed to improve was the condition of the tee boxes. They needed to shorten the grass and smoothed out, plus repairing the damages especially on the par 3 tee boxes . The players should be reminded and encouraged to use the tees for drive shots on the par 3 holes to prevent the damages on the tee boxes. Please groom the grass on all the tee boxes and put up a sign to use tees on par 3’s. Thanks.
Beautiful course
Great day and the pace of play was very good. Greens were in good shape as were the fairways.
Beautiful course and setting. Hit it straight and enjoy!!
Such a beautiful day and the scenery. One of the best outing today.
Beautiful flowers in full bloom and the deer family jumping over the fairways and even the wild mama turkey dragging her chicks. Took me back to Northern Europe that I vacationed several years ago. Needs beverage cart on the course. Greens were deceptively slow due to probably over growing grass. Fairways have improved over last month.
Being Wednesday afternoon, the course was not crowded so the pace of the play was excellent, completed the round in less than 4 hours. My wife had two birdies, beating me mercilessly. Thanks GolfNow for your good work getting this premier golf course.
Apple Mountain
This is a tough course. Each hole is interesting with elevation changes, dog legs and water hazards. The greens had been punched a few weeks ago so were bumpy. I am going to play again in two weeks and greens will be perfect.
Very Nice !!!
My son and I played here for the first time. I had heard good things. Although the course was a bit wet, it was in great shape. Surrounded by a Forrest, the tranquility was inspiring. The course has a tremendous amount of elevation changes. There are uphill and downhill holes. The putting greens were in pretty good shape too. The only thing I would advise is for golfers who have mobility issues not play it.. I am looking to play it again soon. BTW, there was still some snow on the edges of some holes. It is a beautiful course!!!!!
Great course
I love this course. Will be back again after the rainy season. Still a little wet in most spots, but all in all a great course. Especially if you the hot deal.
Good pace of play
Little wet but typical mountain course in winter season...other than that great layout good tee box and green.
Not busy at all played like president...!!!
Target Golf Required
The course is in just excellent shape for this time of year - particularly the greens. Congrats to the grounds crew.
Everytime I play this course I think I'm going to outthink it. Never happens! But, what a fun course to play. Always presents an interesting shot the way I play. I guess if one could follow the course guide perfectly, it would be much easier. What fun would that be? I highly recommend this course.
no crowds
a little cool in the morning, but very nice by the 3rd tee box. Love to play this course in winter time. I live in Tahoe , so its only a short 40 min drive from house.
Tough course even tougher when wet/cart/path only.
Still playable as length is not biggest need. Great price the great equalizer!
Pretty Awesome Course
Bring a jacket, and prepare for a wild game. Up and down, double dog legs, canyons, elevation changes, its got it all! Awesome course I will be back.
You have to play this one!!
Located just pass Placerville, this mountain course is one to behold. Beautiful setting on each and every hole. Will require every shot that you have and then some. Constant elevation changes with left and right turns. If you enjoy golf with scenery this is it. A must to come back and play.
