The Union League Golf Club at Torresdale

Set on 121 rolling acres in Northeast Philadelphia, The Union League Golf Club at Torresdale delivers a classic Donald Ross experience refined by Stephen Kay’s 2015 restoration. The private, par-70 layout stretches 6,450 yards from the back tees, weaving through mature hardwoods, bold elevation changes and Ross’s signature turtle-back greens that demand precise approach shots. Five sets of tees, generous fairway corridors and strategic bunkering ensure the course challenges low-handicap players while remaining playable for newer golfers. Off the course, members enjoy a stately 44,000-square-foot Tudor-style clubhouse featuring multiple dining venues, overnight guest rooms, event spaces and panoramic terrace views of the finishing holes. Comprehensive practice facilities include a double-ended driving range, short-game complex with bunkers, and a putting green built to tournament speeds. Caddie and forecaddie programs, professional instruction and a fully stocked golf shop enhance the overall experience. Conveniently located just 20 minutes from Center City, Union League Golf Club at Torresdale pairs storied architecture with modern amenities for an exceptional private-club escape within the city limits.
