Westin Kierland Resort & Spa

Been in the valley a long time and hadn't made it out to Kierland until now. Course was in fantastic shape in the middle of the AZ summer. Was equally impressed with the service staff being so attentive making sure we had cold water and anything needed to stay hydrated. Pace of play was an issue strictly because we had a group of 12 playing for cash. Will definitely be playing here in the future.

Course was in great shape. Mediocre hospitality!

Plemty of room of the tee and the challenge is around the tricky green complexes. Course is very enjoyable for all handicaps.

Played Ironwood/Mesquite course, and they were both in great condition. Great to see with 100+ degree weather. Facilities were top notch and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Very family friendly facility. Had a great time playing golf and staying at the Westin Kierland! Highly recommend!

Can't go wrong. Very nice complex that's well maintained.

Being a resort course you can almost guarantee that the grounds will be well kept, which they were. The conditions for summer were very good and the course is very fun and playable for all levels. The AC mist units on the cart were a nice bonus and the ice and water stations were constant throughout the course.

I recommend this track.

Kierland is a great course that a rookie golfer can navigate but from the back tees poses enough challenges for an experienced golfer to thoroughly enjoy themselves. The course was in great shape for Summer in Scottsdale. Staff was excellent and friendly. My buddy, who has played all over the world, had never played Kierland before and was totally impressed.

The golf course is in excellent condition. There was more than expected moisture on the fairway as we played early in the morning. Overall, it was fun and enjoyed.

Course was in great shape greens were soft and fast. Beverage cart great job saw here 4 times on each 9.

Course was in excellent condition. Pace was awesome. Staff extremely friendly. Practice facilities were excellent as well. Would play this course anytime.

Overall, I was very pleased with the golf course and amenities. The staff was friendly and course conditions were very good. The greens were hard and fast, but they were consistent, which is critical. At least you can adjust to consistently fast. Views of Camelback Mountain in the background made for very scenic play. Check out the restaurant if you have time; the cheesesteak sliders were amazing!

I picked this course to play based on the high rating score on GolfNow. I can only assume that others rated it highly as they played it well. The layout is boring. Every par 4 looks the same and the course is quite easy so long as you hit fairly straight. We went there hoping to eat breakfast before playing but all they had available was a takeout breakfast sandwich pre-made and kept heated. Very disappointed in this course. We would highly recommend a slightly longer drive to play Lookout Mountain for half the price.

Played Ironwood and Acacia courses early (first tee time) as a foursome played front in less than 2hrs-because of cross over with three 9 holes courses or maybe because they didn't expect us to make the turn so quickly a slower group was put out in front of us on the back. Still played the back in 2:20hr. Resort courses with likely a good dose of corporate play as the resort hosts many larger corporate meetings.

The courses were fantastic with unbelievable greens.

Can't wait to play again.

My son and I enjoyed a nice round early in the morning. It was spring break and this was a treat. There were no discounts to be found anew paid over $200 per person. We played Marriott Wildwood and Troon North earlier in the week for similar money. While the course and greens were in fine shape the course did not compare to the quality of either. This was a true "executive course". Hills served as backstops and helped ur ball to the middle fairway. No doubt I'd play it again.

This course was in incredible shape. The fairways were like carpet and the greens had roll but no stick.

Play this course if visiting Scottsdale.

Course conditions were ideal. I've played Kierland 100+ times and I've never seen the greens run this smooth, this fast and be this receptive!

The downside - 5+ hour round with a half-empty course due to back to back elderly twosomes with no marshal moving them along... This part was MISERABLE!! If I paid the posted $200 green fee (which is ludicrous anywhere in AZ...) I would never come back

Course was in excellent shape and fun to play. We had early tee time 7:39 am so not much waiting at all.

Course layout is only average, a lot of holes run back and forth next to each other and next to a fence along the streets. Not very scenic as expected.

Courses in this price range usually have staff that's overly helpful, not the case hear. Cart GPS system not very good. Not even a couple complemtary bottles of water!

Great course conditions. Staff paired us up with another twosome as requested. Pace of play was best we have had in the time we have been here

Nice coarse...pace of play a little slow. For the money I was expecting it to be a little nicer
