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.

South Course
Called the day previous to confirm no issues with the course…gentleman on the phone said course was in great shape and they would start aerificaton on the greens Monday. Showed up to the course and on the drive in notice the fairways of the south course were completely yellow and sprayed to hurry the Bermuda to go dormant (in preparation to lay rye). No notice in description on golfnow or troon website. Fortunately the guys in the proshop discounted our round, and made things right! On a brighter note, they recently reseeded the practice putting green to Bermuda and it was in the best shape I’ve ever seen it. The greens rolled pure on the south course and were reseeded to Bermuda as well almost 2 years ago and are softening up a bit but it is still quite difficult to hold. They’ve also eliminated the evasive species of grass that was popping up in the greens that had to be driving the regulars crazy.
Great course. Course Marshall is a little to much to deal with
Great place. Nearly died- only saw the beer girl 1 time.
Beautiful course
Must play course in great condition with scenic views and challenging landscape. Played on a nice cloudy day and had a great time. Extras cost extra, haha but range is free and really I got a smoking deal so can't complain.
Amazing course, lots of fun. It’s summer in AZ so it wasn’t in perfect shape but the greens were immaculate. Summer weather evident on fairways. Looking forward to playing again!
I’ve been living in Phoenix since 1989 and have always wanted to play The Boulders but never had, until Thursday… Well it was well worth the wait!! That was one of the nicest courses that I’ve ever played, a day I won’t soon forget! I found a “hot deal” and snatched it up right away! Thank you for offering us those kinds of deals!
Scottsdale staycation…..
I had an awesome first time experience yesterday playing @ the Boulders! I had planned to play at Kierland Resort (staying there), until I came across an awesome “hot deal” that I just couldn’t pass up! One of the best courses that I’ve ever played! Just fantastic, I’ll definitely be back!!!
Beautiful course, t-blocks, fairways, sand traps and greens in great shape.
I have been looking forward to playing this course. The course has many challenging holes. Unlike many courses the bunkers actually had sand and were well maintained. The only reason I did not rate this course better was the practice area for greens and chipping were closed for maintenance. There was no notice of this when making t-times. The pace of play was about four hours and 30 min. I would love to play the course again.
Incredible Course
Absolutely love the South Course at The Boulders. Course was in perfect shape and I had entire course to myself. Hot bud doable. Just a fantastic layout.....true desert golf!
Beautiful view, friendly staff; tight!
What a course ! Where other courses are crying “it’s shutdown and plugging time” there is no sign of that at the boulders. Just gorgeous. Amenities are great nice having balls at range and no worry about bringing balls with you. Ball markers, divot tools etc. are plenty. Washroom facilities are great. Only drawback is that some of the direction to tee boxes are confusing ended up making a lot of u turns :)

First Class
I haven't played Boulders in many years. Instead I play other courses further south next to friends. This facility was in great shape, especially August. The staff professional and attentive. We started on time. The tee boxes were full, and the group in front of us seemed slow, yet the pace was on target to 14 min a hole. It was cart path only due to overnight heavy rain, and that impacted somewhat. The course can be difficult, especially from the back. There is vegetation on both sides, and a narrow passage to the fairway on most holes, with more vegetation between box and fairway that can sometimes block your view of the landing area. Its also a long course from Blue and I remember a couple of holes after my 2nd fairway still 50-100 out, so it can be frustrating if you can't hit as far as you used to. They offered combo-tees (i.e. white-copper), so we should have moved up. Once on the fairway it played much easier. Greens rolled fast. They were firm, rolled and had minimal damage. Great course. Will play again.
