Course Highlights
The course layout consistently earns praise for its rolling hills, moguls, and long fairways that create a genuinely challenging round. Friendly staff and reasonable rates make this a smart alternative to pricier options in the Phoenix area.

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.

Dirt track

Felt like I should be riding a BMX bike on the course, not playing golf. More dirt than grass.

Not Good!

The course was in terrible condition. Half of all fairways was dirt. Weeds in all of the bunkers. New sand in the bunkers was not raked and we lost balls in them. I told a friend that I played here and his comment was " it is a goat track" They needs goats on the course to eat all of the weeds.

Poor Kokopelli

This course could be a lot of fun but it is in such poor shape. Fix it up.

You are super busy so it isnt because you are not making money so put some back into it

Below par

Several t boxes were not mowed. Landscaping was not kept up. Lots of standing water throughout and we observed some trash lying on the corse as well. Bare spots of dirt all over and weeds littered the bunkers. Bunkers had way too much sand and were not raked.

Are you kidding?

Did the people giving 4 stars actually play this joke? Maybe they're employees trying to pad the reviews.

I used to play here a bunch and it was a decent course. Looks like they've really let it go. Fairway grass was long, lots of standing water (not intentional) and spotty greens. I was embarassed to have invited my friend out to play there

Not great

Lots of standing water on the course for no reason. Huge mounds of dirt not seeded areas. Lost balls in puddles in the fairway and lost one in a trap. Holes near the road look great the rest of the course is very rough. Bare dirt mounds in every hole for 75$ in March. Really nice people work here but I would not come back to play I’m afraid. Seems under staffed. One person at the food/ bar in the clubhouse and seemed confused. They could do so much better.

Lacked grass despite all the rain we’ve had. Many areas of standing/casual water. Too many moguls. Greens were inconsistent for speed.

Not Enjoyable

Front 9 in terrible condition. Had to park cart on cart path on many holed and could probably have walked it as fast if you were an Olympic distance runner.

Will never play it again.

Roger

I paid $90 for 18 holes that at most should have cost $60 considering the conditions of the course. Very disappointing. Would not play it again unless it was under $50 and then would think about it. Can’t really think of anything good to say. Sorry
