The golf course at the Union Hills Country Club is a championship course with a traditional layout. The course has been named one of the Top Ten Private Courses in Arizona. The design features four lakes and two winding creeks that create water hazards that come into play on a few holes. There are also several sand bunkers present. Some of the golf course's greens are elevated and the fairways are average sized in width. The signature hole is the par-4 14th hole, which requires a carry over water. Union Hills Country Club also has a putting green and full driving range for golfers to use.

Not what it once was

Hadn’t played here for several years. It is a tired track that needs lots of love. Probably won’t revisit

Pretty bad course conditions

The pace of play was exceptional due to the golf pro keeping on it where a lot don’t… He was the single awesome part of the experience. A lot of dirt areas that aren’t kept at all… We understand it’s winter but let’s not pretend it was worth almost 100$ per player to play…..

Rough was nothing but dead grass, Sand traps were like hitting off concrete, I didn't even leave footprints. The 2nd green has a sandtrap right in the middle of it. The course was not in great shape. Will not go back for a while

Greens need attention, but course is good

The greens were a little rough & brown. Other than that the course was good. No cart girl for drinks, but understand people get sick. Union Hills is always a good relaxing course to play on.

Average Public Course

Great layout, water, sand, elevated greens. Tee boxes are crowned and could use attention. Fairway was decent but greens were hard and brown. Inconsistent speed, somewhere between fast and glass. Decent option if favorable tee times are not available at courses with better conditions for the same or less.

It would have been nice to know you

This course was obviously a top notch facility in the past. Clubhouse is large but mostly closed down now. The course has some nice design features with plenty of length and challenge. The conditions have gone down a bit, but tees, fairways and greens are still very nice.

Course was in great shape, no drink/snack cart. For what the rates are there should at least be a beverage cart

Very Disappointed

I typically don’t write reviews but I have to admit that after playing this course, I will not play this course again. I understand around the WM and Super Bowl being in town all the courses were charging a high price but $83 to play this course was robbery. The greens were diseased, the tee boxes were were all beat up, the carts need to be retired and my nephew rented a set of clubs that should be sold at a garage sale.

Nice Course

Very nice course. Glad we found it and could get on to play during a very busy time of year. We were very happy with the course. Challenging and fun. A bit dry but that’s to be expected. Hope to get back out there before we have to head home to NY.

Solid round of golf on Super Bowl Sunday

Got a last minute 10:30 tee time. Played as a twosome and didn't catch the early groups until #7. Then pretty much waited on every shot the rest of the round but still played under 4 hours. Greens are fantastic, the fairways pretty good. Would play it again but would probably prefer about $70 instead of $100.

Overpriced for the quality

Upon looking at courses I found this course and 80 dollars is about average for this time of year, upon arriving the driving range was pretty much dirt and the putting green was sandy and bumpy. Starting to play I noticed the rough was more like bare dirt with a couple patches or grass and the pace of play was horrendous waiting on almost every shot, I do not recommend this course
