Cimarron's Boulder course is desert in location, but almost links in feel. It's hard to imagine even the most beer-cart-fueled hacker thinking they're in Scotland. Considering the bright sun, the striking San Jacinto Mountains and all. But …

"We've had many golfers tell us it reminds them of the British Open," head pro Jason Janke said. "For what we have in the desert, this is probably the closest course to that."

At 6,782 yards from the back tees, Cimarron challenges with length and accuracy. It's wise to keep your ball in the fairway here or you'll get some up-close desert views. Still with three par 4s over 450 yards and two par 5s over 560 yards, bombing away with your driver is anything but completely ignored.

Good pace of lay

Wife and I played the Boulders course, good pace of play. Greens were in generally good shape as was the rest of the course considering the hot summer. Had fun and finished in less than 3.5 hours. There is no water to drink on the course so bring plenty. Would play again

Fun and fast

Wanted to get one last round while in the desert. Wide open tee sheet Wednesday afternoon 6/12. Showed up around 1 pm and was out solo right away. The guy working the pro shop was very welcoming and kind (more on other staff later).

The layout is a cool mix of holes with getable par fives and fun par 3s. Can use a bit better signage but it’s not terrible. For summer, definitely good conditions with only some areas of burnt fairways. Greens rolling medium and smooth with fun contours and not overly difficult. Tee boxes and bunkers also fair to good. It was in the low 100s with a breeze and there was water in some jugs on the course and ice in the cooler on the cart. Please note::: When playing the few holes back by the overpass, there are some drifters, vagrants, homeless or whatever you deem them hanging around. Always be aware of your surroundings. Park the cart where it is visible (read here someone had their driver stolen; person ran off with it). I put my wallet and phone on my person while back there. No big deal. I was solo and they didn’t try anything weird so I’m sure they mind their own business for the most part.

Glad I was able to breeze through in 2 hours 15 minutes. When I pulled up to the cart drop, I waved to the employee in the purple shirt and he just stared and ignored me. No thanks for playing or how was it, nothing. Not ideal customer service in my opinion.

All in all, glad I got to experience another course in the area. Enjoy the walk…

You will dehydrate

Could be such a nice course if kept up. On the few holes where there was a water jug stand, not all had a jug inside. All that did have a jug inside had trickling to no water. No cart person either. Our tee time was 11:50 and thank goodness we brought our own water and didn’t rely on the course or cart person to buy from.

Also if you are female, porta potty’s only so be aware.
