Resort style course

We played the Mesquite and Ironwood 9's. Kirland is a first class facility and we very much enjoyed our round in 3.5 hours. It is not a difficult course; the fairways are easy to hit and most of the greens are good size, not overly trapped. Everything was pristine but the greens were a little sparse in places (maybe the heat). Misters on carts did not work very well but there's some shade. The practice facilities are outstanding! I plan to play there a couple of more times this summer through GolfNow.

Still one of Scottsdale's best

Kierland Golf Club probably doesn't get the credit it deserves. It's such an inclusive resort with so many amenities that I think sometimes the 27-hole golf course is a bit overlooked. But Scott Miller, who designed the course, is a solid architect. The three nines here are distinctively different and I like the fact that it's easy to keep the ball in play. (the fairways are shaped in such a fashion that balls tend to funnel back to the center). It's always in good shape, and the holes are different enough that you're never bored. Plus, what other course offers Segways, Golf Bikes and soon, Golfboards as options to golf carts? Add to that great customer service, food & beverage and world-class practice and lesson facilities and you've got one of the best golf experiences in Scottsdale.

Enjoyable Course

The course was in fantastic shape. Every hole is different and every hole is a fair challenge. My only complaint is the sound level of the music by the resort pool near Mesquite holes number 1 and 9. It was load and obnoxious. I would not be staying at that pool if I was a resort guess. My birdie on Mesquite 1 was all the more difficult because of it.

Hot day,

Nice facilities, good course. I preferred the second 9 called acacia. Played mesquite on first nine. Our AC carts had the mist option stopped working on us but we didn't bother switching it out as we were running behind. There was a slower group in front of us and no course Marshall as we teed off late in the day I guess. Got a good deal on golfnow but would never pay 199 a round for this course as advertised on weekends. Still, it was on the bucket list and overall we were pretty happy.

Pricey

Loved the course, but considering played 6 times, was far more expensive than equal other courses played, including The Phoenician.

April 13, 2014

The course was in good shape. Got our green fees for half price ($100.00) off Golf Now. Regular rate was $219.00 + tax.

I would play it again if the price was $100.00

Top Quality

Kierlands is a top quality resort course. Suitable for all levels of play, the course is expertly manicured and the attention to detail is evident. Got a deep discount on Golfnow and an great golf experience at Kierlands.

Two different 9s

PLayed the Acacia/Mesquite 18. The Acacia quite a bit more challenging. Mesquite is a wide open tee shot and a target approach shot with bunker guared greens. Course in very nice shape. Greens in excellent condition. Tees and fairways very nice.
The staff was very freindly and most accomadating. The pace of play for two was slow on the Acacia, 21/2 hrs, and quick on the Mesquite, 11/2hrs.

Play it

This is a pricey but must play course. Great conditions, challenging track, perfect weather. There are 3 nine hole layouts and we played Ironwood and Mesquite. Hardly distinguishable. Both have wide fairways and well bunkered greens, which are large and roll fairly slow.

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.
