Squaw Valley Golf Course - Apache Links Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The original Squaw Valley course, Apache Links, opened in 1992–a Jeff Brauer design that is open on the front and more densely wooded on the back. Brauer’s work involved bringing in dirt to provide some mounding to the flat terrain, and he placed the course along a scenic creek that comes into play, mostly on the back.
No. 9 is the best hole on the front because of its split fairway. Macho men can go for the green by aiming over the lake–otherwise it plays a pedestrian 362 yards if you choose the left side, where it doglegs around the lake.
On the back, Nos. 15 and 16 are back-to-back par 4s that you’ll be glad to get out of the way. The 15th rolls 462 yards and doglegs right, requiring a tee shot over the creek. The long approach is especially challenging due to the long row of trees at the corner of the green. Hole 16 features an elevated green above Squaw Creek. Play for position off the tee because the hole is not long.

Great course
Had fun playing this course yesterday! Major drought caused the fairways to be pretty hard, but they were still in good condition. Greens and tee boxes were great!!! Beer is cold, food is good!!!
Not bad for Texas heat
Conditions were fair. Greens were dry and rough.
T boxes were hard as a rock. Fairways were good.
Golf Pass made the price reasonable.

Nice find
My boss had raved to me about this course for years but I never had reason to drive 1.25 hours to get down there.
Monday the day before the 4th of July provided us with the chance to play it as they still had a few early times when I looked Saturday. The course has a few blemishes on a few greens from the fungus and the bunkers could use a little more TLC. The rough was like we were playing a Major. I also had trouble on the long par 4s and I played the senior tees, so bring your A game! We had a good time even with all of that.
