Decent course but few memorable holes.

Not great value for the money. No GPS and limited yardage markers. Range balls on a couple of fairways.

Pace of play was painfu at times.

Playable for varying skill levels

My wife and I were at Kierland for a stay-cation and played the Ironwood/Acacia course. As a single-digit handicap, I found the course challenging and in great shape. What's better is my wife, who rarely plays, found the course very playable as well. She was able to keep the ball in play and enjoy her round without getting beat up by penalties and brutally difficult greens which seem more the norm on the higher end daily fee courses I like. It was nice to find a course we both could enjoy together.

Good Course

The course was in good condition but the signature course was not open. I had hoped to play it but it wasn't available. They had some great specials on shirts at the Pro Shop. Price is high considering other courses in the area.

Good

Practice facility prior to play is excellent covered area. Green was fast with practice items available. T boxes and greens were well maintained. I liked the layout with variety of shots and presentation of each hole. Still very playable from tips and not a typical desert course. Advertise the Segway but have none available and force you to take an hour long test just to use em. Not cool.
