This course was in great condition all over! It is a difficult place to play due to the wind. The course is very similar to Poppy Ridge (Links style course), with very few trees, alot of bunkers and hilly. For golfers within the Bay Area that are looking to play a variety of courses and are not afraid to spend the cash, this is a MUST PLAY! Its about an hour drive from the city and well worth it. Only problem I had with the course is that it took 6 hours to play. I know that most courses in the Bay Area on a weekend tend to have slow play, but this was a bit ridiculous. There was a ranger out on the course and he was very nice, but I think he needed to be a bit more proactive with getting people to play faster. Overall, I rate it a 7 out of 10 and a top 10 course in the Bay Area.

Apple Mountain Golf Resort was definitely a top 5 course for me in the NorCal region. The course was in very good condition. In particular, me and my friends were impressed with the attention to detail around the tee boxes and the greens. The course itself was very challenging. For most of the holes, I took an iron off the tee because there was not much room for forgiveness and there were quite a few par 3's. I would say the only negative aspect to the course is that it is very short. We played the blue tees and it was around 6100 yards. The scenery was spectacular and the employees at the course were very helpful and gracious. I HIGHLY recommend this course to golfers who are looking to play a variety of courses. From San Francisco it is a hike (around 2 hour drive). We played it because we were coming back from Lake Tahoe. I really do believe I will go back and play this course again. I would recommend making a golf weekend out of it and play another course in the Lake Tahoe area. If not, the 2 hour drive is worth it and the price to play this course is ridiculous (in a good way). It cost us $50 including a cart and it is by far better than 75% of the courses in the Bay Area.

I played Foxtail 4/1/2007 for the 1st time. I thought the course overall was decent. I would rate the course conditions to be fair. The fairways were nice, but have some dry/bare areas and could possibly be cut down a bit more on some holes. The greens ran well considering they were arrated a few weeks ago. The course itself is tricky. I had to hit my irons off the tee on quite a few holes. We walked the course and I highly advise you not to walk it (This is not a walker friendly course). Also, it took us (2 people) around 5 1/2 hours to play, so it can be very slow. Living in San Francisco, I can play Harding Park (with a residence pass) for around the same price and Harding Park is a much better course. If you live in the area of Foxtail, I would recommend playing this course, but if you live over an hour away, there are better courses to play. Overall, I would rate this course a 6 on a scale of 10.
