Links At Union Vale

Located less than 90 minutes north of New York City in southern Dutchess County, this remarkable links-style course is reminiscent of the famous links courses of Ireland and Scotland. Designed by Stephen Kay with distinct and memorable features of water, potbunkers and natural hazards complemented by bent and fescue grasses, The Links at Union Vale opened to the public in 2000, and was rated the Best New Public Golf Course of the Year by Suburban Golf Magazine.

The course rides lightly on top of a rolling landscape, with sweeping views of the lush Hudson Valley countryside. Selected twice by the USGA to host the US Amateur sectional qualifier, this championship course is engaging and challenging, yet still enjoyable for all levels of golfers.

Called the pro shop to get a tee time. Only available one was a 1 pm. No problem signed up. Got to the course about 45 minutes early only to find out their was a outing. Our foursome was sandwiched in with another foursome starting on the 18th. hole. A typical 4 hour game turned into 5+ hours. The aggravating part was we were NEVER informed of a outing. The money grubbers operating this course jammed as many extra players as they could. Totally unacceptable, I will never again set foot on their course. Be sure to ask before you go otherwise they will screw you like they did to us. Talking to the manager afterwards was like talking to a stone wall. He had nothing to say not even a small apology.

Very nice course, Great scenery... Made my first 30+ foot putt here...Yeah Me. Greens are tricky to judge, Some look like they my break at a point, but don't at all. Otherwise awsome Links style course, Lots of SAND!

Played this hidden gem on a Friday just after 1pm for $45 rate which inc. cart. Excellent replica of Ireland style links with an American feel. Each hole was challenging and really enjoyed the round. If you cannot keep the ball in play on the fiarway or first cut of rough, you will be having a long day!!!
