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.

STILL OPEN, WHY
Played this course one time three years ago made the mistake of not reading the reviews before I played the course I see in the reviews currently that a lot of people have made the same mistake it's one of those courses you will go one time and never go back again it's amazing how people still attend or go to this course with hopes that ever-changing, don't say I didn't tell you so
Challenging Course
Kokepelli is one of our favorite courses in the valley. They have some of the most challenging greens, which is one reason we like it. The layout is great. The course is transitioning into summer so conditions are just okay. Pace was very good. Staff in the pro shop is great, as well as the cart girl. Still some work to be done outside the fairways but we're told it's a work in progress. We'll be back!
Thanks for your feedback, sinkster. We appreciate your recognition of our challenging greens and great staff. As we transition to summer the conditions are changing and we are expecting it to get greener in the next few weeks. We’re committed to continuous improvement and are glad to hear you plan to return. Your support means a lot to us!
Completed 18 holes in just over 3 hours
We went out as a 2some. On the tee box, a 4some that had just hit let us go through. On hole 5, another 4some let us play through. There was clear sailing after that. Was awesome. Course is in o.k. shape for this time of the year.
fgray, thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you had a smooth round and appreciated the courtesy of other players. We’re always working to maintain the course’s condition, and your input is valuable. If there are specific areas for improvement, we’d love to hear more. Your experience matters to us, and we're committed to making it even better!
Just a mess
It is hard to believe that anyone manages the condition of this course . Many of the water features are empty, and smelly. The fairways are in horrible condition, and so that means the surrounds of the course are just terrible too. There seems to be an irrigation issue, as low areas are swamped and muddy. There is so much mud on the course that it gets tracked onto the greens by players. The green are like worn, bare thread carpet- bouncy, not a true roll on the entire property. That said, this course is a terrific layout, with great hole designs and mounding. Just a shame what this place has become. Not sure what arcis had planned for this place, but either fix it, or shut it down. Do not play here -

I’m thirsty!
No water! Not just as part of the course play but the grass is dying for a drink. The greens need a ton of water. Mower is linking oil on greens. Lines on every green from fresh oil. Fairways need attention and water. Did i say the grass needs watering. So dry. Greens also feel like they were brushed against the grain, if you know what i mean. The grass felt like it was rough.
Corey, we appreciate your feedback and take your concerns seriously. Our maintenance team is actively addressing the watering issues you've mentioned and is working to improve the overall condition of the course. We understand how important it is for our greens and fairways to meet the high standards our guests expect.
This course is in rough shape
The layout of the course is nice. The condition of the course is not. Lots of muddy areas, fairways are brown and greens are rough and chewed up. This is a value course at best and honestly, it would a better value for $20 less. It could be a nice course if it were better maintained. No beverage cart during the week at least.

How far am I out
The course has absolutely no distance markers any so buy a range finder to play
Hi there, thanks for your feedback. Your suggestion will be taken into consideration as we explore improvements. We hope you come around sometime soon and enjoy a round here at Kokopelli Golf Club.
They have let this place go bad.
The place is just in really shabby condition. The fairways are so difficult and undulating that you need consistent grass and it’s just really bad. Swamped out areas of standing nasty water and mud right next to barren waste land of splotchy fairways grass. It’s embarrassing. The greens were obviously punched and sanded but we were not informed and the price did not reflect this. The bunkers are full of rocks and hard. The range was mats and they were all shot to $&@“! 80% of the range balls were washed out and knuckled off the club. No ranger enforcement so the patrons just did whatever they wanted. 6 some of kids drunk and filming slowed everything down. The fairways are all roped off so 70% is the course is cart path only. Very very disappointed. I won’t be back.
Miklbekr, we genuinely appreciate your feedback and take your concerns seriously. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our team is actively addressing the issues you mentioned, including course conditions and communication about maintenance. We strive to provide a positive experience for all our guests, and your comments will help us improve.
