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.

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.

Big disappointment

I rarely give a poor review, but here it comes. Tee boxes were chewed up. Should have overseed more of the course. Traps are hard pan. Greens were ridiculous. Faster than u.s. open greens. Some putts up hill would come back to you. Down hill putts would roll off the greens. I won't be back.

Very slow play

The best thing about this course is the staff! Everyone we came across was just great, super friendly and helpful! Unfortunately the pace of play was sooo slow, and other than the beverage cart with a minimal selection of canned drinks and the outdoor bar at the turnaround, there were few amenities otherwise. Too bad, this course has potential and a great staff but lacks any offerings that makes it a repeat.

New Ownership

I've played here multiple times over the year's, playing it for the first time this year and as i'm sitting waiting to be called for my time I see a FIVESOME teeing off went to starter and ask what's up with the FIVESOME he advised me that NEW OWNERSHIP is now allowing FIVESOMES absolutly RIDICULOUS, then they let a 3some tee off with 3 players and 2 sets of clubs and then 2 moreFIVESOMES tee off took almost 2 hours to play 4 holes, Ownershiip needs to relook at there Policy;s I would recommend this course if your not stuck be hind multiple FIVESOMES and people sharing clubs the course and layout are really nice

miss managed

I have played here for the last 14 years, always considered it a Great course for the Value, it is my understanding that it's under new ownership which I can see the improvements but I have no idea were they got the idea to start letting FIVESOMES out and people out that share clubs, it took us almost 2 hours to play 4 holes totally ridiculous. I think managment needs to look over there policy"s and maybe go back to the old way, I would recommend playing here as long as your weren't" stuck behind a FIVESOME.

Tough greens

Fairway and greens are in great shape, but if you miss either it can be tough. Greens are hard, fast and very hilly but they are pure.
