Slope 142
Rating 72.9

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.

This is truly a gem.

This course is exceprional. It is a must play if you are in the area. It is a great place to take visiting friends, whether they play golf or not. The facilities are unequaled. If you aren’t delighted, it’s you and not The Boulders. Just joking, maybe.

First class

Every club in you bag: a challenge from dog legs, dry washes, elevated greens and perfectly placed traps. Your mission is to enjoy the setting, and relax with everything from the cart girl to the clubhouse store, the experience was first class all around.

Good but there were little things

Overall I was happy playing the Boulders South course. It was a little challenging with the narrow fairways and some carries.

BUT, they recently punched the fairways and there were 2 holes with temporary tee boxes. I was hoping for a premium golf round but it was a good and not great.

I'd play here again after things are fixed up.

Boulder Golf Club

Overall had a good experience. Pace of play was awesome. Lay out of the course was pretty cool. Staff extremely helpful and kind. Conditions of the course weren’t the best. A lot of dead grass and could use some serious water but other than that we had a great time and would play again.

slow grainy greens

great course layout and staff is very good....practice green was about 11 on the meter, but greens on south course were closer to 8 and very grainy ...very difficult to putt them

fairways could use some water because of numerous dormant dry areas, but had a good time and enjoyed the course

Booking a single and not pairing up with a 3 some

I had what I thought was a play conversation with Robert. I purchased a single teatime thinking that I was gonna be paired up with at least another person or at least a threesome in regard for pace to play however, that was not the case that’s not a problem however when I politely asked About going and being paired up with a person that was five holes in front of me, there was a single Robert was extremely rude and antagonistic towards me and I didn’t appreciate it. It was having a simple conversation with him and I had to remind him that it was exactly that just a simple conversation. Why can’t you just put me up with a single it’s five holes ahead. I don’t care just wanna play without having to wait behind back to back forces anyway well that said I won’t be back.

Great property, fun course

Great amenities, great layout and conditions. The greens are fast! A lot of roll out on any chip/pitch. The only negative was pace of play. Over 2.5 hours on back nine. Lots of waiting.

Best views around

Had the course to ourselves on a Friday afternoon (due to a 9 and dine starting soon after us) until the back to back par 3s. Then waited for rest of round but still finished in 4 1/2 hours. Cant get enough of the views on every hole. Prettiest course in North Scottsdale. Just bring lots of golf balls!
