Pleasantly Surprised

We played it with low expectations, and were pleasantly surprised. Kind of a quirky course, and hackers abound. My kind of place honestly. Very forgiving, but expect challenging lies. A guy we got paired up with hit a nice 3-wood shot that nailed a squirrel in the fairway, knocking him out (or just still) for about 45 secs, before scampering away. The ball was deflected into a bunker and he bogeyed the hole. The point is, this kind of thing will happen at this course on the daily.

Keep your expectations low.

Course needs a lot of work. The Greens were actually decent but the rest was pretty rough. Very over grown. Keep your expectation low and maybe dont even keep score. Great place to take your kid or someone new to golf. Also dont forget your $1 Domestic Beer after your round

Fun, but could be better

Fairways and greens are okay, definitely could be better, but nice course overall

Abandoned dog parks have better grass

The fairways are almost none existent. The course is in disarray. It is a rip off. The bunkers have no sand. The tee boxes are terrible. Good luck finding any staff.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR YOUR MONEY

Boulder Oakd

Boulder Oaks is over priced and is in desperate need of work! Need to consider selling the course to a group who cares.

Condition and cart fee

No maintenance and charge $25 for cart fee is ridiculous.

Layout good but not maintained

Too sloppy ball runs off fairways and greens, need to cut grass better

What a mess

This course is in terrible shape. Fairways are very patchy and bare mostly. Routing has changed several times over the years and can be confusing at times.

I won't waste my money on this place again even at the hotdeal walking rate of $15 plus the charge $25 for a cart.

The BBQ was excellent!

Huge lines and wait time between holes, even for a Saturday! Very confusing new layout....how many holes are actually on the front nine? There was no starter or marshall to answer this question. We played 7 holes and then left to end the overwhelming frustration.

Double Bogey

Sand traps ALL had water while it only rained one of previous days … and not heavy rain.. the cart they gave us had no reverse gear and they required cart path only…. Making it very difficult to menuver..The staff were professional - but NOT friendly. The signage on the course … directing you from hole to hole was most inadequate. One of the worst I’ve seen. Finally you need to know… I did NOT have a bad round. I was 2 strokes better than my handicap. So this is not a reaction to a bad round. But it IS a reaction to a bad golf course.
