Summary:
Applewood is my local course, but it's pretty rag tag. This year it's getting better, they really are trying. It's tough to keep a golf course fantastic with the drought going on.
The guys in the pro shop are your typical rich-kids with attitude problems, but that's no biggie. Lot's of cute girls working the snack counter and the driving range.

Customer Service:
OK once they start to recognize you

I like the driving range and the course is getting better.

Summary:
Getting worse all the time! The water restrictions and the drought have made this course virtually unplayable. I remember the end of last year and thought the course was in its usual shape, which is pretty rough anyway. I think that American Golf has improved Applewood somewhat but still struggles to keep up. I have played Applewood probably 300 times and it has always been just OK, basic golf.

Customer Service:
The instruction staff is fantastic, they are some of the best pros I've ever found. The customer service in the pro shop depends on the person, some are nice, some are inherent jerks. Just hope you ha

Driving range is sufficient, a little small but the space inbetween golfers is nice. It's mats only but that's OK right now

Summary:
Applewood this year is a dry out golf course. The fairways are perity dry.
the rough is like hitting out of a bunker.They also have some good water hazerdes and some good size trees that hang over on to the fairway.Another thing is that the first hole has part of the driving range in it if you hit it to the right.They need to keep it more green. You can esaly walk the hole course
Also is real easy to get a tee time.

The driving range is nice.
The putting green is easy and so is the chipping range.

Summary:
Well this course is nice for kids in the area because they only have to pay 10 bucks to play. The course condition howerever is quite terrible. The fairways are like the rough on many nicer courses. You're lucky on the side of the fairway if you land in grass. Try hitting your irons off a mound of dirt, doesn't feel to good if you screw up or hit the ball well. They also pop the people out on the course every 7 minutes so there is often many back-ups. Also you get many people who do not play golf to often and will hit into you or not obey some of golfs simple rules. If you a kid in the area it's a great place to go. Otherwise I would avoid this place. With a nickname of "crapplewood" , "appleweed" or more recently just plain "appleDIRT" you know you shouldn't go here.

Customer Service:
Nothing special.

Summary:
Applewood probably doesn't deserve all the derisive comments, and it's in better shape now than when American Golf first took over. I suspect most of that is due to increasing the amount of "native area" and thus reducing the watering & maintenance requirements!

This is a fun course with some interesting holes, and it's usually pretty easy to get a tee time. Nothing spectacular, some tricked-up stuff, and the front nine isn't much of a challenge.
