Rating 72.5

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.

There is some great work going on but the pace was terrible on the front nine and better on the back nine.

OK Course

This course is much too expensive considering it’s just an average course at best. Besides the green fees, there are taxes and water fees added on make it cost over $100 per round. This is a $60 course in my opinion. Won’t be back.

Hot Booty

I have never played a course where the pace of play was 3 hours to get theough 9 holes. Truly amazing how poorly spaced the tee times were, along with the inability of anyone on the course to move faster than a snail.

The staff was so nice

Very impressed with everyone we encountered from pro shop to bag drop to snack bar … could not have been nicer and more welcoming - a very nice change compared to most courses in the Vallay.

Too slow

We quit after 15 holes which took 4 hours 15 minutes. Didn't have time to spend the whole day at this course.

You really can’t complain when you’re on a public course during winter season in Arizona. Just pray that you get paired with some decent players that want to enjoy the game and have a great time.
