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.

Is this round over yet?! Photo submitted by u000001335906 on 01/03/2015
Slow pace!
Called the pro shop on the 3rd hole because we had waited 10+ minutes to tee off on each hole. There were 3 groups waiting to tee off on 4. Was told there was no Marshall available by the pro shop to help with pace of play. We left after 11th hole because it was miserable waiting. Should have requested a refund but just wanted to get out of there.
First timer
Great value and course but obviously a lot of maintenance taking place .
Disappointing no cart service when it was 100 degrees
Thanks for the awesome review, Alan9713922! We're thrilled you enjoyed the course and found great value. We're always working hard to keep everything in tip-top shape, even if it means a little extra maintenance. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you back for a cooler round!
Course is in bad shape
Course us under repair every where. No bathrooms on the course i could find. Range balls on almost every hole. When the Haboob hit the dirt all over the course along with all the grass clippings just added to the misery.
Sorry there are much better courses nearby.
Kokopelli
Course was nice staff was awesome.
Club house was great. Played with my son during a visit 4 times and it was the best course of all 4.
Well worth the proce
Thanks for the awesome review! We're thrilled to hear you, and your son had a great time on our course—sounds like the father-son bonding experience that Kokopelli is here for! We're always here to make your next visit just as memorable.
Course condition terrible and mostly cart path only.
Thanks for the feedback, 2014crest! We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Sounds like our course was having a rough day—maybe it was in a cart path-only mood! We’re committed to improving, so we’ll be rolling up our sleeves (and maybe some grass) to get things back on track. Hope to see you again soon for a much better round!
Hot day in the sun , but inexpensive golf
Staff were pleasant and pro shop was well organized.
Course conditions were accent considering it was over 100.
Even the geese had a hard time keeping cool on the course.
Thanks, pokester11! We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience, even in the sweltering heat! If the geese are struggling, we must be doing something right! Our team is dedicated to keeping everything in tip-top shape, so your kind words mean a lot. Next time, we'll make sure to have a fan ready for those feathered friends!
3rd Time Playing
The course layout was great, offered its own unique challenge with the hills and long fairways. Pace of play was a big issue, didn’t see any rangers going around to enforce it. At least 3 times in the 18 holes, we had 6 carts at the tee box.
It surprises me every time I’ve played here but there is a real mosquito problem with a lot of small standing bodies of water.
Thanks for your feedback, mmoore6! We're thrilled you enjoyed the unique challenges of our course! We're sorry to hear about the pace of play and the uninvited mosquito guests. Your insights help us improve, and we appreciate you sharing your experience!
Review
This course is in terrible condition. Track is fun but the greens are atrocious.
Thanks for your feedback! We’re working on getting our greens into shape—think of it as a golf course glow-up. Stay tuned for some major improvements. In the meantime, we appreciate your honesty and hope you’ll give us another swing in the future!
HA HA HA HA !!!
It amazes me this course has had horrible reviews for the last 3 years and people still play and then they complain about it obviously after playing this course one time you will read the other reviews on courses before you play any of them it's amazing after 3 years why and how this course is still up and running......
Thanks for your feedback! It honestly amazes us people's expectations with affordable golf. Kokopelli is in a transition stage, and our pricing reflects that. So sorry it wasn't up to your expectations.
Irrigation problems
Areas either too wet or too dry. About half the holes cart path only.
Hi swishera,
Thanks for noticing our cutting-edge strategy — we like to keep parts of the course dry enough to roll fast and others damp enough to practice splash shots. It’s not chaos… it’s intentional turf artistry. 🎨⛳️
In all seriousness, our grounds crew works hard to balance playability with Mother Nature’s moods (even when she’s not participating). But if we ever figure out how to customize every square foot to everyone’s liking, we’ll be sure to patent it.!
Horrible condition
They have holes closed and don't tell you when booking. Greens are extremely inconsistent, rough and seems like they were aerated but not recovered. Mud, dirt, and clover weeds throughout the fairways. No distance markers throughout the course. For what golf prices used to be before courses started fully taking advantage of COVID prices. This is sub par. Crazy they are charging what they are for the condition it's in.
Thanks for the feedback! We’re currently working a few holes and aerating the fairways was a part of the process of bringing the grass back. In regard to the distance marker, it is something is being worked on with the maintenance team. We hope to see you again one day down the road.
