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.

Beautiful course with awesome views. Greens were in fair shape. Rolled well but looked bad. The rest of the course was perfect. Staff was friendly. Would definitely go back.

Great staff. Played the South Course. Great shape except for the greens…….a little stressed and dry but the ball rolled well.

We’ll be back to play the North Course.

Beautiful but needs work

Great layout and views. The sand traps need a lot of work, a lot of grass in them and growing down from the rough into the traps.

Also, some of the greens don’t look very good for a course with a high price tag like this one.

A true desert experience!

First time golfing in Arizona and found a great deal on GolfNow so jumped on it. Such a cool course! Don’t know if I’d pay full price, but I thought the course was in good shape and the scenery was awesome. I can see why it’s on many lists of places to visit in the Phoenix area. Also liked that the green fee included cart, range balls, towel and tees to use etc.

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.

Beautiful course. Play it once and you can cross it off your list. Not worth the price. I will not play here again.

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.

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.
