Elephant burial grounds
Apple Valley is a lovely track whose greens have dramatic undulations. 3 putts is not uncommon if you are not on the proper part of the green. The course is fun to play, There are some interesting elevation changes, doglegs, water hazards and the like to keep you thinking. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The new BBQ restaurant closes at 8.
apple valley
Apple valley at rumbling bald....is probably my favorite course for the area now. Was definitely challenging. Bad part of my day was the fact it was cart path only due to all the rain they had the past few days. So was difficult for a true yardage and picking right club. The fact they had grass on the fairways to hit the ball off of was a shock becaude almost 99% of courses ive played this yr hasn't had any. The gps on carts were accurate and definitely easy to operate. Pace of play was average. It was 2 of us and a 2 some went off in front of us and we waited on every hole. Luckily by hole 10 they left. Will def play again soon.
A Real Gem
A true championship course. For the time of year conditions were good and the greens were in excellent condition. Nice challenging layout with 5 sets of tees. Most of the bunkers had soft white sand, they were working on the others for the high season. Good quality golf carts. There is a grill on-site for a quick or relaxing bite. Would play again without hesitation.
Good vibes
Beautiful...played two balls and never rushed at all. Greens look great. Couldn't miss a putt out there. Fairways too. No problems at all. Fun course from the tips...longish but fair.
Apple Valley
Staff provided great hospitality. Fairly easy golf course from tee to green, but a lot of undulations on the putting surfaces as well as difficult pin placements make it challenging to score. Golf course was well conditioned, and fun to play. Even though I played on a holiday pace of play was great. Rumbling Bald is a must stop for anyone in the area.
Great Course - Nice layout
This is a well challenging course with great scenery, especially the back nine. Excellent layout other than possibly #7. Fairways and greens in good condition. Best value and public course in Western North Carolina.

A Gem
Great course. Excellent greens. Course condition very good. A real pleasure to play.
Great Course, On tight side
Nice course, challenging play. Definitely in need of thinning out. Many shots penalized by tight or over hanging trees. Would make the course more playable.
Outstanding Golf
Great course, very playable. A little on the tight side.
Everything you would want in a group golf outing

Best bargain in NC
I have been there 4 years running. First year we stayed in the condos at Apple Valley, 2nd and 4th year the condos on the 3rd fairway of Bald mountain. The 3rd year the Smith Mountain Lodge. All of the accommodations were superb. We are going back in 2105
One word describes the golf course, the accommodations and that being "OUTSTANDING "
