Boulder Oaks Golf Club

I have been coming to Boulder Oaks for several years. This course used to be a place where you could play for $35, but over the years, golf courses in San Diego County have gotten expensive. The owners are finally investing in the course. After buying new carts a few years ago I see marked improvement in the conditions. The greens were amazing compared to the past and I can see they are taking care of the grounds. Look forward to playing again.

Hello viewer. Boulder Oaks is an interesting course to say the least. One thing right out the box is that the website is way out of date, especially the scorecard. It is indeed a 19 hole course, but they only have about 2 black tee boxes not roped off and available to play off of, and given that the course is only 6300 at max from black, you do lose a lot of distance on the course. (Plays max about 5800). The layout if this course is challenging, and the greens and fairways were in good condition. However, the conditions on everywhere except the greens and most fairways was brutal. Dirt everywhere, dusty unpaved rickety cart paths, and sometimes in the rough it was like hitting on concrete. The course if kept in better shape would be challenging and a great course for the money, but the conditions of the course unfortunately made it feel like a goat track. But, the service was good! The people who checked us in were friendly and helpful. I overall wouldn’t recommend this course to anyone who likes a cured golf experience, but for the average Joe looking for cheap golf with some buddies, this course is just fine!

Boulder Oaks is located in a beautiful area and the views were awesome. Course is challenging and enjoyable. That being said, when comparing the price per round on how much you pay for other local courses, I think that the upkeep would be better. Course was pretty rough in spots and could use some TLC from the grounds crew

Great course. Layout has changed since I was last here. Greens and fairways were in great shape. Staff was very friendly. Marshall/cart worker was cool. Super laid back place. It’s not arrowwood or links…. Cart paths are a little rocky on some holes and you can get lost as the paths kind of crossover each other on some holes. Several tee boxes were roped off, possibly under repair. No cart girl. but for 55 bucks with a cart… can’t beat it. If you want to work on your game and not have to worry about pace of play or the course being over crowded this is a great course, like I said greens and fairways were great. 55 bucks for a 12:30 tee time on a Friday. Would recommend

The staff were all really good: helpful and very friendly. Great value for money; this is obviously not one of the higher end courses but it was very playable and a great walking course if you don’t mind hills. It was a damp day when we played so we had no one ahead or behind us. It’s an executive course with lots of par 3 holes but the 4’s and 5’s required you keep it more or less straight. Wet weather and some wind had it playing a bit longer and that was ok. Exceeded my expectations for the price.

this is definitely a course for the common people. course conditions aren’t the best but you can still hit off fairways and roll in your putts on solid greens. Variety of holes are definitely challenging and fun. Great place to go with your buddies and none of this pish posh behavior. Definitely come over and have fun

Great value and fairways and greens are getting better. Would come back again.

Really a fun course. One of the best kept secrets in San Diego. Easy to get on, nice greens. $1 beer with your reciept after the round. I like taking my kids here and my friends. Great value. Owner couldn’t be cooler

Upon arrival we found out the course offered a deal that was much better than the "great deal" on Golnow. We would have saved $25 using the course deal (same price as golf now PLUS a free golf cart). The greens were in good shape and extremely fast. Twosomes were the norm and we never had to wait. Tee boxes could use some help as they were bumpy and had bare patches. The fairways also could use some grass. BUT with the pace of play and the deal through the course we will return.

Last minute booking- I should have known.

Went with my coworker and his dad and brother.

I set it up.

It was just bad. Extremely slow pace. Every hole/ every shot/ every tee box….. you felt the wait. The 3sum in front of us were drinking a ton and quit after 10. The 2sum behind us were decent golfers like us but I just felt bad knowing they were waiting. It’s very hilly so they don’t know if we are waiting because we thought we were good or looking for a ball- or we were waiting for it to clear. The carts were whack and the path (off road gravel) made it a mission to keep everything inside the cart every 10 yards. The staff was definitely friendly and I booked a Sunday 10AM round on Saturday mid day- but for 70 bucks, I’d rather shart my pants in traffic and manage the next 5/6 hours of the day than go back there and hit off dirt, take tee shots with 7 people waiting for you- after waiting 15 mins, and hear the word “fore” like they heard the word” grenade” in Vietnam in a 5 hour span. I’m 35, my handicap is a 12, I’m nothing special. But this course was like going to a party in an abandoned home with a bunch of homeless taking keg stands.

I was generous with my review stars.

Boulder Oaks sounded so cool. We left early. Be better.
