Mesquite/Ironwood at Kierland Golf Club
About
Unlike many other Scottsdale courses, Kierland Golf Club's three nines sprawl across rolling hills without a single cactus in sight. The nines are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Mesquite/Ironwood Course is has player-friendly fairways that are generous and easy and the green are large but not particularly undulating or fast, which makes the golf course accessible to a range of different skill levels. The course isn't entirely forgiving though. The Mesquite nine may be the flattest of the three nines but it is also the toughest. The par-4 sixth is especially demanding. The challenges of Mesquite are balanced by the player-friendly nature of the Ironwood nine. There is some strategic mounding but overall the links design is very approachable. The golf course ends with its signature hole, a classic risk-reward opportunity with a lake to the right and sand traps to the left.

Solid Layout With Excellent Conditions
I played Kierland for the first time and realized I should not have waited all of these years to do so. Everything about the experience is first class from bag drop to Pro Shop, driving range to starter. The conditions are immaculate and nary a blade of grass is out of place. The swirling bunkers are beautifully edged and a joy to play from. The man made moguls are clever design features to separate holes and to add some elevation to a flat piece of land. I was not a fan of some of the artificial water hazards as they seemed forced. The pace of play was great at 4:05, which suffered from a slight back up at the turn. Kierland is a first class Troon Golf facility and should be towards the top of your golf list in the PHX area.
ok
I was a single when I dropped my bag off I was asked if I wanted to join other golfers, I replied yes, When I went to first tee I was told I was playing alone, There was a husband and wife in front of me and the same in front of them and a three some in front of them took 4.5 hours to play
Great AZ Course during Summer Heat
The course was in great shape for enduring a month of monsoon weather and blistering temperatures. Well done grounds crew. I really enjoy playing here during the dog days of summer as the value and the amenities make it great.
Excellent
Can’t beat their summer rates for this amazing course. Very well maintained, staff and facilities are top notch.
Five star hotel one star golf
6-15-2021, as a local one of the worst experiences I’ve had, staff advocate Ian so rude, pace of play so slow could’ve floated in the lazy river and kept up.
Ok price but nice course
This course is very well maintained and has great practice facilities. I would say it is expensive, even for the on-season prices. In like Dec-Apr it is like $150 and in the off season it is like $65
Disappointed
No one was around at bag drop. It had rained and the pro shop was leaking water. It was wet so it was cart path only which was understandable. We finished around 4:00 and was going to go in the pro shop for a hat or shirt and it was closed.
A little tattered
I was disappointed with the course conditions. I played here last year at roughly the same time and it seemed so pristine. The tee boxes are shredded. Greens aren’t terrible, they are all significantly pocked. Very fast and true though. Staff was terrific- they hustle and are very helpful. The place was just kind of beat up. For now at least I would suggest to a friend to take their $175.00 and play somewhere else.
Kierland-spendy but worth it
Greens were firm and fast. Entire course was in excellent shape. Will definitely go back.
