Union Lake Golf Club

This is absolutely a terrible course but, I've taken every one of my kids here, when I started teaching them golf. Yes its terrible but, no one is mad for a kids slow play, you do not have to worry about upsetting anyone by letting your kid learn slow, and is on a course " kind of" they ride in a cart " even though the cart is 90 years old" but they learn and no pressure. Couple trips and when I took them to an actual course, they already knew what to expect " things are just way nicer, and no trees laying on the cart path" but it has its place and benefits.

Would I come back? No. Do I hate this place? Also no.

I knew what to expect coming in. I knew the greens stunk, the bunkers were nonexistent, and the fairways were indiscernible from the rough...

But wait, the fairways were actually.....decent? Yes. They were okay. Not patchy and were mowed to a fair length. Some did have some puddles in them, but you can blame the wet conditions to begin with plus the rain while I played. I appreciated the level of dimension the greens had. They weren't all just big circles and had a decent amount of break. Sure it was carpet, but I do appreciate that intricate of design especially on a 9 hole course.

I talked to the owner after the round, and he said that he's letting the bunkers just turn into grass bunkers. There were also two greens on the course that the staff was forced to change due to some extensive vandalism that took place on the old green sites. I think some reviews here are overlooking that, and those two holes weren't in any condition to have a green, so a pin was just plopped down. They have done some work on them. If you got a kid who wants to start playing golf, this isn't a terrible place to start.

I have never played a round of golf on a course that is in such horrible shape. The greens are unbelievably bad. I would not golf here if it was for free as the horribly slow and bumpy greens would screw up your game. I hope that this entity goes out of business and is bought by new ownership and they rescue the course, as it has the potential to be a great course. Simply SHAMEFUL.

I payed for 18 and stopped after 9 because it wasn't even golf. The greens were so long the ball barely rolled. This course is a joke, don't even waste your time here.

For the price it is a fine course. Greens are beat up but didn't expect much for such a cheap 12 holes.

This course is pretty short where most par 4's come in at around 250 yards. Good course to play for people who are new to golf. If you are a avid golfer i would suggest a different course as you may find yourself bored.

would love for this to be a nice course as it is so close. the golf cart needed to be pushed to start each time. tee box, greens, fairways are bad. holes are not well labeled, needed a map to know which hole to go to next. sand traps are just traps often without any sand. sadly won't be playing here again.

Don't even waste your time going to this place. It should be shut down.

I decided to give this course a try because of the great deal I found on Golf Now. Even though I played for less than $1 a hole, I was thoroughly disappointed. The first thing I noticed was how run down the place is. The clubhouse is a mobile home... The holes are poorly marked and it is difficult to find your way around. The greens are completely dead and in some spots were just patches of dirt. The bridges over the "creeks" were falling apart - a couple old cement ones actually had caved in but had not been taken care of. The ponds and creeks were disgusting and smelled. I don't enjoy writing such harsh reviews but these are the facts. I will say, however, that management was very nice. I would not recommend this course to anyone, though.

First off it's only 12 holes. Who builds a course with only 12 holes. Second it's the shortest course u will ever play. U can almost drive every green.

It was great to play 3extra holes at no charge. Lowest golf rates every day. Surprisingly challenging with over water shots, sand traps and the oldest largest willow trees I have ever seen. This is a thinking golfer golf course. Three sets of tees and never a wait time. Staff is knowable and friendly.
