Apple Tree is one of Yakima Valley's most distinctive resort courses, built around a layout whose signature hole — the par-3 17th, playing to an island green shaped like an apple — has become one of the most photographed holes in the Pacific Northwest. The apple motif isn't mere marketing: Yakima sits at the heart of Washington State's premier fruit-growing region, and the course leans into that identity with genuine charm. Designed to reward accuracy over raw power, it plays through open, high-desert terrain that gives it a character quite different from the tree-lined parkland courses common west of the Cascades.
The Yakima Valley's semi-arid climate means dry, firm turf conditions for most of the season, with the kind of blue-sky days that make eastern Washington golf reliably enjoyable from late spring through fall. The surrounding landscape — irrigated orchards, volcanic ridgelines, wide sky — gives the course a strong sense of place.
For a resort layout, Apple Tree offers enough strategic interest to hold a serious golfer's attention while remaining genuinely accessible. It functions as both a destination round for visitors traveling the wine and orchard country and a local point of pride for Yakima golfers.
