The Westin Kierland Golf Club

I had a noon tee time yesterday (Saturday) with some friends visiting from Nashville. I’ve played Kierland many times over the years and I always considered it a reasonable resort course. Generally speaking, I would say that Westin and Troon Golf get things right. After yesterday’s experience I have a vastly different opinion. We arrived around 10:30 thinking we would grab a late breakfast before teeing off. Bad idea, the restaurant wasn’t opening until 11:00. The staff sent us over to Edie’s (the halfway house) to grab a bite. While Tracy was very polite and helpful they had no breakfast menu items other than some pre-made bagel sandwiches. Not good! Following our warm-up we were greeted by the starter and he pointed us to the first tee. We were very surprised to see a 5-some in front of us. Making matters worse the group also has 2 young ladies with them who from time-to-time decided to whack away as well. Needless to say, the play was extra slow, and nobody cared. We spoke to a ranger who thought it was quite amusing that there were 7 people in the group ahead of us. At the turn we spoke to a member of the player personnel team and he informed us the group was only playing 9 holes. He was wrong!!! We endured the grind on the back nine as well. We finished our round 5 hours later and nobody was available in the golf shop for us to speak with. Overall, our experience was miserable and Troon Golf failed to deliver a quality experience. Shame on you Troon Golf!

Beautiful course for this time of year and very friendly clubhouse and workers, however for how much $$ they charge (spent almost $800) you would think that they would space the tee times out, they pack you in like rats. It took my foursome 5 hours and 20 minutes to get through 18, not worth it for price unless you want to sit for 15 minutes before you tee off on every hole.

Beauty of a course. Exceptional customer service. 10/10 would recommend if you're visiting the area.

Weirdest rule but you can’t use the range if you’re not staying at the resort. It’s a driving range not Maidstone in the Hamptons. Here is a pic of how close I got to the range. As you can see not very far. Go to Top Golf if you want to hit some balls.
