Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Thank you the 5-Star Rating! We look forward to having you back soon at Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course
Typical Palm Springs Public Course - Friendly Staff
This course to me was your typical Palm Springs public course, nothing special however the staff were super friendly and informative so I'd say the great staff puts makes this course stand out among the many other peers in the Valley. I wish they had pull carts to rent for out-of-towners who prefer to walk.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Rainy, rainy and wet
I believe the course would be beautiful, but unfortunately the rains came and it sucked! Would love to try again on a sunnier, warmer day, but not sure if we can get a refund on our gift certificate. Please let me know, thank you, Kathleen

Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course!
Enjoyed the course
It was a a lot of fun to play. Nothing too tricky; what you see is what you get. None of the holes particularly stand out when remembering after the round, but they were all fun. We had seven of us traveling from all around the US and we all had a great time. Shot scores from 78 to 88.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course!
Course was scruffy, hard to distinguish rough from fairway, guessing it received some damage from tropical storm.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and provide feedback on your recent experience. We apologize if the course conditions were not up to our usual standards and will address any damage caused by the tropical storm. We appreciate your understanding and hope to welcome you back for a better golfing experience in the future.
A nice course with fabulous views
Played from the white (Middle) tees and did not find the course overly challenging, given the perfect weather conditions. A few of the fairways are a bit narrow, requiring accuracy off the tee. Greens were relatively fast but a bit choppy with a lot of ball marks. I fixed several on each green. There are some unique local rules that were not explained by the starter, but luckily my playing partners had played there before. Specifically, balls that end up in the wash were treated as a free drop. We also played certain landscaped areas as a free drop. Not sure if this was correct, but it was a casual round. Did not see any white stakes. Full driving range, and there is an 18-hole short course, so you have options.

'Palm Spring 2024

Bathrooms
You would think if you pay over $100 in Green fees there would have bathrooms other than Porta potties on the course
Repeat Player
Pace of play reasonable / wide fairways / greens somewhat consistent.
Always play here few times during visit

Fun to play a par 3 with an audience!
Strange property with really well kept golf course running along side waste areas. Course will keep you focused and engaged. Greens were wonderful.
Staff could wake up with more of a smile.

Always a great experience.
Always hit Cimarron when we come down. The layout Is nothing special, but the conditions are always very good. The staff are fantastic and very accommodating. As a tourist coming down in the winter, value for money is really very subjective. Non-residents get screwed financially but whatevs ... I think the value is pretty good here, comparative to others.

Need to get more carts please. We arrived an hour early and did not get our until after our tee time. Could not hit practice balls we purchased before the round because carts were not available to go to driving range.
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the lack of available carts, which resulted in not being able to hit the practice balls you purchased. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to ensure a better experience in the future.
