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.

Boulders North Course playing great
Played the North course last week and had a great round with my son. Played in 3 hours 40 minutes at 3:10pm so the pace was fine. The course is in excellent conditions.
Golferguy63
Great course, pace of play was adequate. Some greens had a little damage. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable! Was disappointed spending over $250 to play here that they didn’t even give you a couple bottles of water. Troon golf courses are premier but they are getting out of my budget! Overall course was great . Sorry for the 4 star, but fix the greens and I’ll ad another star.
Greens are ruff. The cost of Beer, Water, Drinks are way too high. The 2 we golfed didn’t buy anything. For the price your not worth it
Great course, overpriced
Had a good time, course is great, staff is great, 25% -35% overpriced for our market and the season
Expected more for the price
We were disappointed in the Boulders, greens were not in great shape, some were painted, for the price we paid to play this course we were expecting it to be in great condition. Pace of play was slow and group behind us kept hitting into us. They charge a 10% surcharge for water on top of the green fee.
No shortage of great views!
I couldn't have had a better day to play at the Boulders. The weather was perfect and the views were incredible. Enjoyed the day. One highlight was a rather large cat crossing the fairway behind us. Based on this cat sighting, I decided not to look for any lost balls!
Price to expensive. 2 drinks cost $36.00 Don’t get a drink if you have to. Wait. Wait
Great views
Nice practice area, rough perfect fast greens, very nice
Top Course
First time I played the Boulders course and I really enjoyed it. Even the rain on the day could not dampen my enthusiasm and enjoyment.
Nice course, but the new greens are ridiculous
The south course replaced their greens in the summer of 2022, and they are hard as rocks. No matter how much spin on a shot, it will not hold. Every shot runs through the greens. With the number of false fronts, hitting shots short is also not generally an option. Greens are also very shaggy, so you have the worst combination possible, hard and slow greens. the course layout is very nice, except for #17, which is a bit gimmicky. Difficult lay up and a long second over a gorge. Overall, terrific course, but just too difficult to play the greens right now.
Very slow greens
Amazing views and challenging layout. Also saw a lot of wildlife!
Great deal - had a blast
I got an excellent deal on the Golf now web site that made this round even more worth it.
The course was in great shape and super fun to play. Coming from Minnesota to Arizona for the first time, I don't have a lot to compare this course to, but it was exactly how i pictured dessert golf to be.
Challenging course - rock hard greens
This is a challenging course, but fair if you hit it straight. These were the hardest greens I've ever played on and is not what I would consider typical friendliness for a resort course. Also, the starter offered to read my putt on a hole which I found odd and unprofessional.
Fun Course
Played the South Course at The Boulders. The course is scenic with many elevation changes. The greens were nice albeit a little slow on this particular day. The driving range and practice putting green could use a little TLC. Overall, it was a fun experience, and I would definitely play here again.
