Beautiful, well-manicured course

We really enjoyed our round at Kierland. Very pleasant staff, great warm up facilities, clean washrooms, refreshments were available and the course was in great shape. Greens and fairways were in awesome condition. Even with a tournament that day, we finished in just over four hours.

Great condition and moderate challenge. Not a lot of blind shots.

My husband and I played this course on feb 12th 2014. We were paired up with a lovely couple. The course is in excellent condition. A great round, especially after not playing for a few cold months!

Great Course

Course is in great shape in a great area of Scottsdale. Deceptively difficult, but still a fun course to play. I think it is a bit overpriced even for the season, but a good deal if you can find the occasional bargain. It is definitely in the top 15 public courses in the Phoenix area.

Not easy but fun.

Don't really hear people talk much about this course, but for a resort course it was in amazing shape. Not easy but definitely playable. Open fairways and well groomed greens.Good green fees through Golf Now for January play. Will play this again.

Very nice course

The course was in excellent condition. The greens were running at about 11 1/2 and true. Tees and fairways were in great shape. Resort course with nice wide fairways and fairways that collect back to the middle instead of off the course. But you still had to hit good shots or you would find trouble. It was a very fun day of golf.

Nice course. Overpriced compared to the competition

Basic resort course. Straight forward, kinda boring. No real trouble. Round was very long due to everyone playing on 2 or the 3 rounds.

Enjoyed the course. Greens were difficult.

I gave the course a 4 out of 5.
The disappointing part was not receiving the divot tool, course book, and the bag tag as promised from my reservation confirmation.

The day was delightful and although we were a two-some didn't have to wait long to play, even though we were following a foursome.

Very scenic course with some challenging holes to carefully consider club choice. Great staff!

Great value for the price

Course was in great shape. Rough was very thick. Greens were very good shape but a little slow for this course.

Pleasant round

From club drop off before round to club clean up afterwards, service was exemplary. Arrive early to utilize the practice range and green. We played front nine on Ironwood, back nine on Acacia.. For a summer round, the course was in very good shape. Mesquite (a third 9 hole course) will be closed now for a bit for maintenance. Restrooms and snack shop conveniently located in a stand alone building.

HEAVEN FORBID YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY USE YOUR LEGS AND WALK ON THE LAST TWO HOLES! THEY ARE CART PATH ONLY FOR A REASON ON #9 BECAUSE IT'S A DANGEROUS HOLE TO DRIVE ON THOSE SLOPES.

Misters on cart what an experience

The last few holes were not made for players with knee problems but still fun. You could not take the cart on the fairways and to get to your ball you had to walk down very steep grounds and very few walk ways to walk up and down in.
