17th hole par 5 Photo submitted by glovesb on 03/09/2015
Nice course to play to get away.
Had fun very nice course to play and it was fast and Hot Day to enjoy.
Fun, tight, short course to play.
The course was in pretty good shape. It was cart path only on most holes that day. It's a fun, tight, short course.
Great Getaway
I really like coming up to this course. I live in Aptos, so it's a bit of a drive, but well worth it. Weather is great. An enjoyable executive length course that still offers some pretty good challenges. Try it, you'll like it.
great course to play
I am a senior player, This length of the course is just good for me. The staff and marshal are very friendly. I played with my friends from Connecticut, they are very enjoy to play there.
Great staff.
Always have a great time here. Staff is great. Even though the front nine was recently aerated, the back greens were in great shape. Looking forward to returning soon.
Great value and friendly staff
The Golf now special is great value for the weekend. Course is nice and sometimes challenging. Terrific to be done under four hours on Sunday.
Poor Conditions That Day
My foursome was not happy at all to discover, AFTER paying what we consider "full price" for Boulder Creek, that they had only recently punched and sanded the greens. The first four holes were so bad all we talked about was getting our money back. Putting through sand a quarter inch deep. And wet. We hadn't anticipated the course would be so wet and soggy but apparently the little drizzle we had in the area amounted to more up there in the mountains. What bothered us most was that there was no Aeration Alert posted on Golfnow.com. We would never have played there that day had we known. Luckily, the back nine was better. No sandy greens and drier. The greens (that weren't punched and sanded) weren't in bad shape but there are a lot of tee boxes that need some serious attention. Teeing off in pure mud is not acceptable. My advice is only play in the summer when there hasn't been any rain for a while and call ahead to make sure they haven't butchered the greens lately.
well maintained and nice golf course!!
This course is located in Boulder creek, which are surrounded with beautiful hills. Golf course were well maintained and the staff was really kind.
Fun course great deal
Boulder creek takes a big to get to from where i live so I only go if i can get one of the really cheap golfnow deals. It's the best deal around and i love playing this course, the only trouble is sometimes the pace is extremely slow and the tee boxes are usually in pretty bad shape.
Great learning course
I've been playing Boulder Creek since i was 18.
Currently, you can play BC for $33 - cart and sandwich included.
Look, the course is par 65. The longest par 5 is under 450 yards. It is a great course for someone just learning. The front nine has 5 par 3s, and 3 short par 4s (under 320 yards). The narrow fairways still make Boulder Creek challenging, but if you want to Grip It and Rip It, this is not your course.
It is a drive for anyone who doesn't live in the valley. That sometimes means that you can find some open pockets in the tee times so that a beginner isn't pressured and can relax.
Beautiful place to Play!!..
Narrow, Challenging Corridors for Fairways... Big Beautiful Redwood Trees lined throughout..Very nice Back 9 as well... Stone Bridges to cross as you view nicely placed Water Pools.. A Beautiful Mountain back drop to add to the Beauty of the fairways.. Very Challenging, well kept and Fast Greens.. Highly recommended... I will be playing there again!!!
know where to hit
great drive to course. lucky enough to play with former director and mens club president who were very helpful with shot selection, which made the day with placement of shots. need to place the ball on the right part of green or your looking at easy three putt. enjoyable round with multiple birdies and near misses.
Beautiful course nestled under the Redwoods in the Santa Cruz mountains that makes for a very relaxing and fun day of golf.
I like this course a lot. Great value even when paying the full rate, and the staff is really nice. It has a lot of par 3s, but they're by no means easy. Several are 180+ with some tough obstacles, such as hole 10 where a shorting the green will put you straight into a deep ravine.
Also has some great shorter par 5s that with two good hits might provide you with that eagle putt that's been eluding you for so long. Take an opportunity to play a round there if you get the chance. You won't regret it.
Narrow, but picturesque; no "gimmies."
Tucked in the Santa Cruz mountains, off the beaten path, Boulder Creek is a hidden gem. While the length is not a challenge, there are no "gimmies": every hole offers some degree of challenge. The only downside is that due to the wet winter conditions, greens are exceedingly soft, so approach distance control is critical. An enjoyable round, very much looking forward to dry summer condidtions!
Wait until summer
The course will be fun to play in the summer. Right now they have frost delays, a couple of the greens are frozen solid and some of the fairways are swamps.
I love Boulder Creek
Great course. Not too long but lined with trees so you need to be accurate.
Possible to drive the green on two of the par 4's.
Beautiful course in the redwoods, just need to drive a bit to get there.
Very pretty and good fun
On a sunny day this is a pleasant experience. Nice to be in among the redwoods. Course isn't long, greens are fair but very slow.
It's a nice change of pace from 6500 yarders.
Very scenic and much warmer then expected while golfing through redwood trees. Some challanging holes. Great place to stay the weekend!
Our group stayed in the condos and had very good time. We golfed for 3 days. The crew at the reception desk for the condos is extremely friendly and accommodating. They made our stay very pleasant. They compensated for a bit stiff reception at the pro shop.
Wet Conditions
The Course was really too wet to play, with damage being done to greens. I had a great time and a great round, but the course should have been closed.
Family Affair
Had a great time. Look forward to playing here agian.
