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.

9.5
The Boulders is in a beautiful setting and the courses are good layouts, however the playing conditions, tee boxes through the greens, left much to be desired.
NICE SETTING
COST in today Market very expensive .Did play the Coarse because a special on this particular T- time.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Our rates go down April 25th. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
A little far north but nice.
No mention of Food really only on Bev Cart. Grill took too long for sandwiches to order. Eat before or Bev Cart is only option on course.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the lack of food options. I will pass on to our Food and Beverage managers. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
play it once
Beautiful course. Play it once and you can cross it off your list. Not worth the price. I will not play here again.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback.Our rates go down April 25th.. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Several greens in front nine South very poor condition
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the course conditions. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Top notch course
They said it would be about the experience. It was. I totally enjoyed the day even though even hitting from the forward tees it was a bit more than I could handle. Duffers like me should be be forewarned. I thought the fees were very steep, although I was told they were the norm for “in season”. So I paid the freight, took the photos, bought the shirt and will have good memories.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Disappointed…
We like challenging courses. Played the North course after a nice lunch at the Grill. Expected the course to be more interesting and exciting for the price. Fairways were in good shape but greens were a bit beat up. Sand traps were like cement. Some sand traps were hard to walk into and walk out of. Play was slow. Staff were very friendly.
Good not great
Having played both sides I can say that the Boulders south course is fantastic.. memorable. North, not so much. Conditions were fine, no real complaints but far from outstanding.
I would not pay 300 again to play North course, it lacks any special or memorable holes and was not in sufficient condition to justify the price. You'd be better playing something like Troon North.
Finally, I know that this course is not the only one to do it, however, the 7% "water surcharge" buried in the fine print is outrageous. State what the real price is if you think the course demands it.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
The boulders north course
Disappointed is an understatement. Golf now has the south course info on the listing but when I got there we were told it was the north course we were playing. Members were playing the south course. $260 later, we left disappointed in the quality of the north course. The greens looked as if we were putting on boulders. Tons of divots and very patchy in spots with tons of bare spots. Some tee blocks look like they had never seen seed. Save your money. There are much better courses in the area. It’s embarrassing they charge that kind of money.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the course conditions. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Condition of greens
My only reason for not giving course a 5 star is the condition of the greens. Sub par for a course of this caliber and cost.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the course conditions. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Needs a ranger
Played front in 2 hrs, with twosome and threesome in front of us. These groups then morphed into a fivesome on back, kept telling us they were being held up, but we saw no one in front of them. NO RANGER ON COURSE. Back took 2:45. This is a high class place and should be
a high class experience without having to be behind a bunch of Wallies who make their own rules.
Best of The Boulders Package
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the course conditions. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
