Virg's hole in... Photo submitted by u000004000717 on 02/28/2018
nice course
Got a great price through golfnow. Played weekday afternoon and had the course to ourselves. Nice layout and in good condition, Sandtraps could use a little work though. Overall happy with the condition . If you haven't played there it's worth giving it a try.
CLOSE TO SOUTH COUNTY AREA
THEY ARE ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING TOO IMPROVE THIS COURSE EVERYTIME I PLAY IT...A GREAT COURSE FOR SOUTH ST.LOUIS RESIDENTS TO PLAY...
Crabgrass
Everything was great on the course except the greens had too much crabgrass on them.
Good course – especially for the value
The course was an overall good shape and one could not complaining about the quality, especially based on the value. Overall the course is picturesque and has a lot of unique holes… One thing that is frustrating is that the staff will send out groups on number 10 which then link fence the round… This has happened twice in the three times I played here… You come off number nine having played the front and good time only to have two or three groups in front of you that weren't there before… Nothing huge but something that they should take into account. Would definitely play here again.
Golf
Had good time course in good shape didn't take all day
Great course! Great value!
Course was in great shape! Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all very well kept. Staff was very friendly. If you're looking for a bite on the turn, do yourself a favor and order a cheeseburger. Made fresh to order and are full of flavor!
Nice course on a beautiful piece of ground
Union Hills is a fine course in great condition that will test player skills with length, elevation changes, and a few challenging design features. The course tests all clubs in the bag as well as all shots in a player's repertoire.
While the course is generally in very good condition, there are a few maintenance items that would make a positive difference. Several lesser-used (red) tee boxes need repair and grooming. Also, 30-40% of the cart paths are buckling and/or deteriorated. Finally, the alge covered lake makes a key feature of the grounds pretty ugly.
That said, the grounds have a comfortable feeling of historic significance much like old country clubs that become open to the public. The price is right for tee times made online. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Union Hills has wonderful potential to make the short jump from its current position to one of the few A+ golf courses in the St. Louis area.
Like walking in a park
Excellent landscaping, paved cart paths if you can hit the ball 100 yards you can play this course!
Great value
Very surprised with The course
Great Value / Unexpected Surprise
I really liked this course. Tees and Greens were in great shape, fairways were good, rough was tough but fair. If only the rain wasn't there, I think I would have enjoyed it even more. I will try it again when the weather is better, then I can really let you know.
Back to old form
This course went public a few years back and i think lost some of its greens shortly after that. Prior to going public it was the hidden gem of Golf courses in the area, it is now back to the old form. The greens are in about the best shape greens can be in, the fairways and tee boxes are great as well. Do yourself a favor and play there. Chic runs the place and is working hard to get this place back to its old glory, he mentioned they are working on adding a range. cant wait to go back
Great Layout
Excellent shape considering soggy conditions
Great day
We had a great day. Love the nature and course is in great shape. Traps could have been a little better, greens were very nice.
18 holes in 3 hours
This will be the last time I review a course as I don't mind checking buttons, but I do not want to write a review and they will not let you rate a course without a written review.
Best bang for your buck!
Played 5 or 6 public courses so far this year. Union hills is by far in the best condition. Friendly staff. Course isn't to busy. Location is its only downside for me.
Green
The fairways were surprisingly green for this time of year but the greens were true winter shaggy and we could not figure out how to put till the end...all around fun round ad we felt we had the course to ourselves
Well maintained even in winter
Enjoyed it brought my 14 year old who is learning and dId not feel pushed at all
Tough One
Worthy of it's GN rating. Very well maintained for November. Greens were in great shape. Pretty tough even from the whites. Lots of fun drives where you can watch your entire shot. Bit of a hike from the city, but not too far off I55.
Good course, good price
This is a challenging track. It's in good condition, a few bare spots on two or three greens. The back nine is considerably stiffer than the front. No spectacular holes but no dogs either. Nice layout.
