Killeen Golf Club

This is a very nice parkland golf course in County Kildare and is not to be confused with two other courses of the same name (in Ireland) like the reviewer below who gave very high ratings for the course of the same name in Killarney. It does not have spectacular scenery whilst Nick Faldo did not win the Irish Open there. However is very playable in the summer before the leaves drop from the copious deciduous trees that line the fairways. There is a lot of water also and well placed bunkers to test the golfers. The routing and transition is not good and could do with some more signs to direct the players to the next hole. Worth playing for the cost.

Around 30 min from Dublin, one can find this golf course. Pro shop is fine, you can have rentals at 30€, good set of clubs. There is a putting area. If you look at the maintenance, the course is well maintained from tee box to green, traps around the green are okay too, greens are excellent, but...

It need to be said as I was really disappointed. This Course is very boring. There is really nothing interesting from hole 1-6. Nothing. That is long if you expected something. Very flat meaningless par 4’s average 360yrds! Hole 7,8 and 9 are fun (from which 2 par 3’s. The last couple of holes 15-18 are interesting again. Greenfee is around 30€, if you like a walk in the park it is great place but if you are looking for some excitement... search a bit further.

One of the best courses I have ever played. €10 green fee for a junior. Greens roll just like the nearby K club (If not better). Lots of water. fairways and bunkers well manicured. 18th is a lovely par 3 which would remind you of the 17th at Sawgrass. Surrounded by water and bunkers. Greens are seriously Impressive!

A superbly kept course just off the N7 and thirty minutes from Dublin. Tight fairways and lovely rolling greens, plenty of water in play on most of the holes means tee shots and iron play into greens needs to be on point! A must play in my book I’ll be heading back soon!

Super course.
