Beautiful

As always the course is beautiful. This time the pin placement was very difficult and the greens ran fast, at least a 10. Chipping was hard, so GR.

Wonderful weather and the right pace of the play.

It’s just like a beautiful fall weather with blue sky, a few white cloud patches floating, colorful falling leaves, chirping birds and running squirrels. Just beautiful scenery alone was worth of driving up some 56 miles to this mountain golf course. Reminded me of playing in the mountain courses in Georgia and Carolinas some 20 years ago. I didn’t get a good score and a single birdie because the greens were quite challenging with undulating surface with fast slope. The bunkers needed some raking and some areas of the fairways needed maintenance. The pro shop staff was very friendly and courteous. The course is quickly coming back to those good days for golfing of pre-Covid-19’s.

Great Da

It was tough to get to golf course with road construction & High season for Apple Hill, now fast way to get to golf course, played behind a slow group which made it somewhat frustrating. But, we got 18 in before sunset.

One of my very favorites

This is a bit out of the way but it’s a gorgeous course. Great staff. Nice breakfast and lunch restaurant. Hard to find anything better for the cost.

Great Course

This course is beautiful, but extremely
hard as it has a lot of trouble. You really
need to play it several times to score good.

Apple Mountain is in very good condition

I’ve played Apple Mountain quite a few times over the years but first time this year; the course was in very good shape. Greens were in great condition - a little bit slower than in the past which was a good thing. Like always staying in the fairway is paramount. Almost every hole has trouble; a tough course but can score well if you don’t lose many balls (that can be a big if). Gorgeous trees and scenery. Worth the drive.
