Nice but Pricey

Kierland is a very nice resort golf course that provides wide fairways and challenging greens. That said, paying $300 for the round with amenities that I find at a good muni is over the top. But, it's Arizona...

Pretty boring

27 hole course. Played the Mesquite/Acadia course. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers in very good shape with the exception of the greens on the Mesquite 9. They are terrible. Grass is very thin, almost putting on mud.

A nice resort course if you are just going to be playing it a couple of times. Pretty boring layout but very forgiving. Most of the course funnels into the fairway so even your poor tee shots find the fairway.

For the money, there are much better courses in the area.

Pace of Play

Need someone to check the course for pace of play. Group of 5 in front of us and no sight of marshal to assist in helping us move forward. 5.25 hour round not acceptable this time of year and rates.

Greens were in terrible shape, exceedingly slow with punch marks and sanding still evident. No one in our foursome could make a putt due to the green irregularities causing the ball to move off line especially when it slowed down. The group was really frustrated. I realize these are seasonal issues but it is still frustrating that the course is not more playable in the off season.

Struggling at end of summer

Front 9 was fine (Ironwood) but the greens on the back 9 (Mesquite) were in worse shape than muni courses in the area. Not up to Troon standards by a long shot.
