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.

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.

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.

Cart price not actually included.

Cart price is not included even though it claims to be on golf now. That’s fine, $15 more for the deal we got wasn’t terrible, but then there was a group of six in front of us. Hey if you want to let 6 go out that’s fine, but don’t charge premium prices. I’ll search for better deals down the road. I’m all for casual play, but I would hope the rates would be casual too.

Overall a great day on a fun course

Start time was delayed because the earliest times were delayed. It seemed like slow pace but there are 19 holes which adds time and the group in front was playing blue which also impacted pace. From the white it was well maintained but you could see that on the blue there were some branches that needed trimming. Needs to be remapped by scga for gps.

Course Needs Some Help

Might be best to just save your money. I gave the course 2 tries, as I thought it had some potential but was disappointed both times.

what is up with the routing?

started on 12 and a few holes later, the signs say 4 & 5 but we seemed to have played 19 holes and my GPS could never follow what was in front of us. It is winter, the course is ragged and over priced for what it is... reminds me of Castle Creek, just before that became a real wreck.
