Kokopelli Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Located a short distance from Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix and Arizona State University, Kokopelli Golf Course is a championship length course that offers many interesting challenges. The rolling terrain creates sloping greens and undulating fairways. A majority of the teeboxes and greens are elevated as well. The course also has large multiple island tees and water hazards in the form of meandering lakes that come into play on several holes. The signature hole of Kokopelli Golf Course is the par-5 18th hole. The dramatic finishing hole calls for a shot off an elevated too followed by an approach shot past water to an elevated green.

Round in Kokopelli
There was a freeze delay that impacted the start and pace of the round. Nevertheless, the staff gave a basket of practice balls on the house.
Kokopelli
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Very fun course and well maintained. Can’t wait to play it again.
Thanks for the fantastic review, czJl7GYbZRjlmwKUYMrQ! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course and found our staff helpful. We take pride in maintaining a fun and welcoming environment. Can't wait to see you back soon!
Bathrooms
The course was in good shape and fun to play, unfortunately the course bathrooms were outhouses. For ladies it was atrocious. The holding bins for the sewage was inches from the top. These outhouses were not pumped out in a long while. This was not acceptable for men let alone the women.
Hi RG7EBC78495B9A51CE3C, thanks for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the course overall. We understand your concerns about the restroom facilities and are actively working on improvements to enhance the experience for all our guests. Your input is invaluable as we strive to provide a better environment. We appreciate your support and hope to see you back soon!
Fun & Challenging
This course is got a lot of green space for this area. There are a lot of moguls and large sand bunkers that make it challenging. We would have liked a map on the score card or on the cart because it can get confusing deciding which path to take. All of the employees were friendly. We enjoyed our round and will return.
Hi i01852, thanks for your thoughtful review! We're glad you enjoyed the course and found it challenging. We recently put a QR code on our scorecard and when you scan it with your phone you will actually see a map of the Golf Course and a GPS for yardages. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Bathroom
The out houses were absolutely the most disgusting thing. Make sure you don’t drink anything because you don’t wanna have to use those
Hi u014074115, thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the restroom facilities didn’t meet your expectations. Cleanliness is a top priority for us, and we're actively addressing this issue to ensure a better experience for everyone. We do have them cleaned out by an outside company weekly and checked by our staff daily, we apologize if it missed by our staff that day. I will speak with the team, and we will get better on this matter.
New Years Golf
The course conditions are terrible and the carts are all over 20 years old . Many holes are mud as it’s being overwatered and no grass
Hi u7319947, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. We take your feedback seriously and are currently addressing the course conditions and maintenance issues you mentioned. We hope you give us another opportunity down the road.
Muddy Golf
Golf is always a challenge. This course added to it with all the mud. There were some very nice fairways if you could get past the mud and dirt.
Hi u314162487742, thanks for sharing your thoughts! We understand that challenging conditions can impact your experience. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the fairways. We're actively working to improve course conditions and appreciate your feedback. Looking forward to welcoming you back for a smoother round!
Good overall condition.
I’ve played this course for many years. I’ve played it in really good condition, and also in terrible condition. Currently, the course is in really decent shape. Greens and run up areas are green and plush. It would be awesome if folks who play there would take some pride and repair their ball marks. Price was good and seemed fair.
I have the following observations that I’d like to share:
The tee boxes could use some attention. Many of them are crowned or a bit hilly making tee placement a challenge. Also, if the boxes are not going to be cut every day, why can’t someone take care of the broken tees that are just laying there? Perhaps place a small box for golfers to toss them in.
Too much goose crap. Enough said.
Areas on the back 9 that used to hold water need to be cleaned up. It looks trashy and detracts from what was once a beautiful golf course.
The golf carts need to be cleaned. Not sure what outside services is doing, but it’s not cleaning the carts after use.
This is a fine golf course that gets a lot of negative word of mouth from folks who haven’t been there in a while. Time to start the positive speak. I’ll be back to play again. Enjoyed it today.
Thanks for your thoughtful feedback, golfzlf. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your recent round and appreciate your insights on the course condition. Your suggestions regarding the tee boxes, cart cleanliness, and maintenance will be shared with our team. We’re committed to improving and enhancing the experience for all our guests. Looking forward to welcoming you back for another round soon!
Okay for the price
This course has so much potential to return to something special, all of the pieces are there it just needs a little more TLC. Some areas are over watered while other areas just need some more maintenance. For the price and relative to other courses at the same price point it is really pretty good. It is expensive to run a golf course and putting the limited resources available into the right areas pays dividends, this place is close. Excessive ball marks on greens, fairway divots not filled, and other day to day deficiencies are common from course to course. I would say I got what I expected for the price, some things were below expectations while others were better, it depends on what your golf peeve is as to whether this course is a good value. I will go back because I know what to expect and what to accept.
Thanks for your thoughtful review, u000001080562! We're glad to hear you see the potential in our course and appreciate your understanding of the challenges involved in upkeep. Your feedback on maintenance is invaluable as we continuously strive to improve. We're committed to enhancing the golfing experience and we will continue to work on the course. We hope to see you soon!
Spot on.
Great course
If the price was a bit lower it would be an amazing course. It was a bit muddy but still fun. Green were great and staff is always friendly.
Jaszman, thank you for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear you had fun and enjoyed our friendly staff. Your feedback about the pricing and course conditions is invaluable; we're always looking for ways to improve. We hope to welcome you back soon for an even better experience!
Greens
We were the third group to go out and it looked like there was a hail storm on the greens. There was divots all over the greens making it frustrating. For $79 definitely not worth the price. If you enjoy the zen of spending 2-5 minutes fixing divots to putt on every green I would recommend, otherwise it’s a strong pass.
Hi gn23717243, we appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear about your experience on the greens. We aim to provide a great value, and we understand how frustrating it can be to deal with divots. Your comments will help us improve our maintenance efforts to ensure a better experience for our guests in the future. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Under Construction
A lot of the homes are under rec-onstruction. The pace is part was slow.
Hi dha1776, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Kokopelli Golf Club has needed some improvements, and we are currently working on them as you noticed. Although, I wouldn't say any holes are "under construction", we currently have 3 holes that are Cart Path Only, but all greens and tee boxes are open and seem to be in pretty good shape. We apologize for the Pace of Play as we are always trying our best to keep the pace moving and having our marshal out their help assisting as well. We hope to see you again.
