Nestled among 12-million-year-old boulders in the scenic desert foothills near Scottsdale, Arizona, Boulders Golf Club & Resort is one of the country's most prestigious resort destinations. The North golf course at Boulders plays big brother to the South Course, and offers bentgrass and marvelous views of the Black Mountain, as the course winds through the community of Boulders. Both golf courses spring from the desert foothills and feature take-your-breath-away panoramic vistas -- among those of spectacular formations of boulders, stunning Sonora sunsets and indigenous terrain.

Great discovery

We come play in Arizona around every 3 years since 2009. First time playing this course. What an experience. From the drop bag to the end of the round, all was great.

We will be back.

Good Golf

The course was a challenge but obtainable. We played with another couple who were very helpful. They played the course many times and showed us the way. The fairways were in pretty good condition, considering how hot it was. The greens were a little slow but I understand as it take water to green them up. Overall we really enjoyed the course and will return.

Played the course on 9/8/2022. There were two holes under repair, we were told there would be only one. The greens were in poor condition, as there was crabgrass on several of the putting surfaces.

Not bad for the money

I only have 4 of 5 stars due to the greens needing a little extra care. Quite a bumpy for my liking. I was not expecting perfect but I thought they would be a little Better. But other than that this course was well worth the price I paid. It was Monday (Labor Day) so pace of play was a little slow. I booked as a single got paired with another single and the 2-some that was supposed to be with us only wanted to play by themselves. We finished all 18 in 4hrs and 5 mins.

$14 beers!!!

The course was great… but $14 for a Coors light is absolutely ridiculous!!! When we said something to the pro shop about the ridiculous price gauging, the guy said “you don’t have to buy beers if you don’t like the price”. Really dude?? He was being a complete jerk. No where in this world has anyone charged $14 for a 16 oz Coors light.

Never golfing here again… or if I do, I’m loading my bag with my own beers and they can deal with it!

A Must Play!

I play two rounds a week at various courses around the valley. The Boulders is at the top of my list. This is how golf should be. I definitely will be playing again soon. Great layout and conditions. A++

Fortunate Round

I always consider myself lucky when I get to play this course. Not with my game but with the amazingly friendly and thoughtful staff plus the conditions and weather.

Pace was awesome until the last three holes when I was stuck by an incredibly slow group. But, such is life.

Great course and I’m hopeful to play again in the near future.

Great Layout

Really like The Boulders. Course is in good shape. Greens smooth and fairly quick. Tees and fairways in good shape. Layout is fun. One of my favorite Phoenix courses.

The layout is great, but the condition of the course was terrible, the greens, the fairways, crabgrass all around the greens, overall the course was in very rough condition. Your greenskeepers are not doing a very good job.
