overpriced

basic golf course, tees and greens witrh wide fairways. Far too expensive at 65 let alone the 200 they want to charge.

This course is in excellent condition

Course was well maintained, excellent staff and course marshall did his best to keep pace of play going. If the marsall was not on his toes this could have been a 5 hour plus round.

Well manicured and a great course for every level of player

This was the second time we have played this course. Though the course is enjoyable they overbooked the tee times as far as I am concerned and then the Marshall was complaining about the pace of play. We were chastised for stopping to get a sandwich at the turn and rudely told that he was moving the foursome behind us up. Little did he know that we were with that group anyways. When golfing at a resort of this caliber, you would think that they would make the experience more enjoyable.

Course in great shape.

Good course in great shape. Lots of room to miss in both directions. Good place to start a golf trip or warm up your swing after layoff. Troon, TPC, or Wekopa are better values at rack rate but this is a good play if you can get it at a discount or resident rate.

Course is beautiful

I recieved a great deal for this normally high priced course. For the $69.00 I paid for the round, I thought the course was worth it. Its an extremely beautiful and challenging course. The emaculate and undulating fairways (sometimes perfect drives are thwarted by downhill/uphill lies) made for a challenging day. Staff was profession, eager to help and extremely friendly. The bevarge cart, as promised was seen twice per each nine. I would play there again if the price was right. I am glad I finally decided to try it.

Beautiful Course

We really enjoyed this course and the driving range facilities are top notch! There is a canopy cover that is adjustable for the sun position and a golf pro is available on the range to provide tips for those who want them. We had an excellent experience.

Excellent

12-2-12 was my first time here. Great range area, gorgeous property, and excellent golf. The 2 nines we played were in great shape, with quick greens. We played in 3 1/2 hours (but were the 1st ones out). Now one of my top Scottsdale golf facilities.

Perfect Day with my Father

Course was in beautiful shape it is hilly on the Acadia course so the cart path only made for some tricky climb down to areas. The couple we were paired with could not have been more enjoyable to spend a day on the links with it was great!

Mr.

The course was cart path only due to recent overseeding. The marshalls said we were too slow, even though we finished in 4.5 hours. The course was much too expensive for the conditions that were present. I will not play this course again when it is cart path only.

Cart path only and hilly from the cart path. Only suitable for the very good golfer at this time. Gave up after 5 hours in the heat.

We never would have reserved had we known it was cart path only.

Due to overseeding, front nine was quite slow. Back nine was fairly dry and course was faster.

We enjoyed our day and in particular due to heat especially appreciated the misters on the golf cart.

Just an OK course. Not worth the money. Better courses elswhere.

This course is very highly overrated. Not much challenge. Scenery is blah and course condition is just so-so. There are many other courses in the area that are much more exciting to play, in better condition and much more reasonably priced. This course just isn't worth the cost of play.

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.
