South at Boulders Golf Club & Resort
About
The Boulders Golf Club & Resort complex features two outstanding 18-hole courses. Both courses are very well maintained, and the scenery is incredible. Boulder's South Course is exactly the type of desert course people come to the Phoenix-Scottsdale resort corridor to play. A round of golf on the South kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which measures 421 yards from the blue tees, which is quickly followed by a short par 3, measuring 150 yards from the blue tees. Things get long on the fifth hole, a 545-yard par 5, which is just a warm-up for the 11th hole, a par 5 that measures 601 yards from the blue tees. It doesn't get much easier to finish: The 18th is a par 5 that measures 513 yards from the blue tees.

Great scenery at Boulders
If you want a scenic round of golf, this is the place. Beautiful desert landscape peppered with amazing boulder structures, many right in the line of play. The course itself was narrow desert style, which takes Driver out of your hand on many holes. A few have forced layups or de facto forced layups due to the narrow fairways. In my opinion, your money is better spent at other Scottsdale tracks but you won’t regret playing here. Staff friendly, greens did have a lot of Poa in them and they didn’t always roll that great. Other than the greens course in great shape.
Absolutely Disappointing!!!
When you pay $429 for a round of golf, you ought to at least feel like the ownership is doing their best to maintain the course to a level worthy of the cost. This was incredibly disappointing. The greens are on par with a mediocre small town muni course. The poa and other random grasses on the greens make putting impossible. It’s not a few spots here and there but rather an infestation across all 18 greens. The cups from previous rounds were not flush and typically had large clumps of grass around them. As mentioned in other reviews, the greens are rock hard. You will not be able to hold a wedge shot or check a chip. You would typically be forced to play short and have the ball release to the hole. This doesn’t happen as the fairways short of the greens are very soft and don’t release. The fairways are browning out and have various grasses growing through similar to what cheap muni courses offer. It’s as much of an eyesore as it is frustrating to play out of. Several tee boxes have minimal grass as well. Finally, pace of play was 5.5 hours. We got to know the group in front of us as we met on each tee box. There was nothing about our day that was remotely satisfying. Boulders - you can do much better. It this is the new quality of Scottsdale golf, Palm Springs is the place to go.
Greens needs to be improved
Not true and bumpy. For what we paid we expected better conditions.

Second time I played it while wintering in AZ. Love this course. Great condition and excellent pace of play. Great staff.
Amazing Layout
It was a great experience from the bag drop to the 19th hole. The course design was challenging and fun to play. I’m definitely coming back
good to great condition.
Really enjoyed the course and staff. I feel the course was in healthy condition. South course greens were fast. Beautiful course laid in the boulders with nice amount of traps
Challenging & Scenic But…
Played the south course, was on our bucket list. The layout will make you play target golf to particular spot for your approach into the green, some blind shots. The courses is in good shape, but has fast and firm fairways with rock hard greens that will reject good shots which is frustrating. Adding to the frustration is poana in the greens. These were the worst greens we’ve played on all month, Might be back if they address the green issues. For the money there are much better options in the area.
AMAZING 🔥🔥🔥
One of the hardest and most beautiful 18 holes if players, but definitely opportunity to challenge myself and my game. Service team was awesome and we felt welcomed throughout the round. We have stayed at The Boulders before( many times), and had never played this course. I am so thankful for the opportunity to do so. Looking forward to coming back here soon and beating my previous score.👍😎⛳
