Apple Mountain Golf Resort

We had it all ... beautiful course ... beautiful views ... beautiful weather .... and the eagles flying overhead ... this is a course where you need to keep your hits straight and true ... and oh .. be sure to bring some extra balls ... you are sure to lose more than the average ... need to upgrade the food and beverages ... limited selection

Course was in very good shape tee to green. I forget how tough the greens are what a test of the putter.

Absolutely as advertised, Apple Mountain is spectacularly situated and in immaculate condition. First time on the course, but we joined up with someone who had played it often, which was helpful in pointing out things to avoid. It's a very difficult, but very fair, test. I am no one's idea of a first rate golfer, but I thoroughly enjoyed the conditions and the course, my semi-abysmal score notwithstanding.

Control is mandatory on this course, beautiful elevation changes and no houses on this course make it one of my favorites! Take your GPS with you.

Great views. Very intimidating at the start! But, course was very exciting and a challenge. The course really makes you think about club selection. Not a course where you go to driver on all none par 3 holes! We were a twosome and played 18 under 3 1/2 hours!

Amazing views, fast curving greens, perfect late summer weather in the pines. Good course management to move the players along. Stay away from the cafe.

This is one of my all-time favorites. Every hole is a picture on a postcard. Don't miss this place if you have the chance to play.

Course is unbelievable for the value. If this course was in Tahoe it would be a $100+ round. Great staff and the course has awesome views.

My friends & I really enjoy everything about Apple Mtn. The course is fun, channeling, well-groomed and not boring. This is probably the 5th time I've played here and it's perfect on the way to Tahoe... In fact it's better than a lot of courses up in the Tahoe area!

Thanks again!

Overall I love playing AM. this time we signed up for the unlimited play feature. While it was a good value the second round was extremely slow due to a fivesome of slow players who seemed to play with little regard for others. Unfortunately the Marshall that was very visible in the morning was no where to be seen on the afternoon.

Forget your scorecard and just enjoy the visuals on every hole. Small misses here turn into penalty strokes for hazards, out of bounds and lost balls.
So treasure and remember the birdies and the good shots and know you are better than this course's scorecard will show.

I would pay just to ride the cart throughout this forested, mountain park. Forget just grabbing the driver on all the par 4's & par 5's, as this this strategy can bite you. Every tee shot requires hitting your spot or you may be unforgiven. There are some awesome some holes where you can smack the heck out of your driver & watch as your Titleist sails onto canyon fairways far below (or, if you miss, is given up to the bears, deer & grey squirrels). This is a must play & I drive 3.5 hrs (one way) several times a year just to get my butt kicked by this beauty. Only downside: pace of play can get bogged down (4.5 hrs round).

Beautiful surroundings. Nice design. Bring balls. Tough for high handicappers as many holes require longish carries and lots of walking up steep hills when u r off the cart.

Love this course not because it is easy but it is very beautiful, the staff is really friendly and if you play well - you can feel really good!

Practice areas are all nice (chip, putt and hit).

Price is very worth every dollar.

I cannot wait to play there again!

Fun challenging course, need to play more than once to figure out, slow round though. No rangers. ;)

This is a must ride course. Course is very beautiful. Take a lot of balls with you.

Not your average golf course. Beautiful Scenery in the Mountains. Tremendous elevation changes. It was a treat to play this course. The staff could not have been more friendly nor more helpful. We will do this again before the year is out.

Always love playing this course, whether I brought my 'A' game or not. Unfortunately the course is an hour drive away. Would love to play it more often (course knowledge). I'm sure it would help my score. Other than some bumpy greens, course is in great shape. Staff are friendly and attentive. Practice facilities are top notch as is the course usually. Carts are always well maintained and powerful.
Next time up, I think I'll go for 36 holes! :-)

Although it was humid, this course gets you out of the heat.

Great to get out of Sacramento and into the hills. Course was in great condition. Weather was fine but warm. Only lost one ball but didn't score below handicap.
