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.

Etiquette classes for new golfers should be required
Course was great. However came up on a foursome of keystone cops that looked like I was watching a Benny Hill show in front of me on about the 5 th hole. Stuck there the rest of the way. How hard is it to wave a single golfer through? Then on 18, in a 25 mph gale force wind, they all took 3 minutes each to putt out for their respective 115 - 120 scores. I recommend the course.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course thanks you!
Great course for the money
Always fun to play the course, especially if you have not played in a while. Generous landing areas and interesting holes make for fun. Greens could be a little quicker, but they ate tricky to read.

Decent course
I went out as a single at 11 AM in April. Hooked up with 2 nice gentlemen. Pace of play was OK considering mid-day. We waited a lot but it was about a 4:15 round. Acceptable. Course conditions were OK. Greens a little slower than I would like but relatively smooth. Tees, Fairways and Bunker were good. The tees you play will make a big difference in the challenge of the course as there are relatively narrow landing areas. Layout pretty straightforward. A decent course. There are better (and more expensive) courses in the Coachella Valley but this was the right price for what it offered
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course!
Short Course Great Conditions
First time playing here. Built into a river bed so flat and unusually short for a full 18. Conditions we’re great and a very forgiving layout and greens. Definitely a confidence boosting course.

I introduced two friends to the Boulder after first introducing them to the Pebble. They enjoyed it immensely and shot some of their best scores in recent history. We were all three enthused and look forward to returning.

Great price

Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course.
Great Day
Pace of play was initially slow due to a tournament in front of us. But it did even out eventually.
Port-a-potties were a disappointment given the nice clubhouse
Would have been helpful to know it is not possible to go into the clubhouse at the turn. As a result a more frequently rotating beverage cart would have been welcome, especially on a weekend.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course.
The course was great. We golfed with a man that was very quiet and not too friendly. Very rare in Palm Springs but otherwise a good day of golf. Will be back.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Cimarron Golf Club - Boulder Course.
