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.

Wonderful Day

From the Bag Drop until the Club Cleaning the service is always first class. Greens are as good as anywhere in The Valley. Fairways could use a little water, but couldn’t we all. Thanks.

First time playing this course.... Great shape for middle of June. Looking online it looked fairly easy, but in person it was very challenging for all playing abilities. The views were amazing. First rate resort.

Enjoy the view

A great place to spend a week, played the South course twice, staff is genuinely great, warm and friendly, course is in great shape considering the sanding of the greens for this time of year, everything is green that should be, tees are well set up for players of all skill levels, big boy’s get to fly the spoil areas while players who know their skill levels can move up as much as 100 yds, if you can’t shoot straight, they sell balls from the drink cart.

Amazing Views

Course was a little dry, but it was getting aerated, which is why it was affordable, but it was a very fun course layout. If you want the full experience, go when everything is hydrated, but it's quite pricey for that. If the greens don't really matter to you, absolutely take advantage whenever they lower the rates. Also saw a Gila Monster on the course. Extremely cool.

Exceeded expectations

Had an absolute blast playing this course! Being from Orlando this track was an absolute treat with its tight layout and elevation changes. On top of that conditions were top notch. Big shoutout to the green keepers and maintenance staff. Easily my new favorite course.

Great day of Golf

My course is closed (Wildfire at JW Desert Ridge. Got a very good rate through Golf Now. Course was in very good shape. Greens were excellent. They handled Covid. 19 requirements very well. Cart service available as was water and ice. Played the white tees at about 6,300 yards. I’m a six handicap at 69 years old. I played over 150 rounds last year. This is one of my favorite courses . We played the North course today, but either course is great to play. Occasionally in mid summer there are some course conditions but similar to most Valley courses. A little cooler at the Boulders than Phoenix.

Boulders South Course

I took a friend to play the South course at The Boulders today and we were so impressed with the beauty, the condition and the overall experience. One of the best courses I have played all winter/spring and I have played a lot.

SLOW PLAY

Slow play ruined the round. Beautiful to look at, but when you’re sitting and waiting on every shot the view gets old! They need to do something to speed up the pace of play here or it’s going to ruin the reputation.

Great course

If you are a low handicap player and want to experience true "Target golf", this course is for you. The course was in great condition and teeing off next to The Boulders on some holes makes for an unforgettable experience.

Good course. Rude staff

With all of the great courses in the Scottsdale area and the steep price they charge $179 afternoon rate even to resort guests you would think the staff would be nicer. Compare that

to Quintero (Less than $100) a course we played the next day and besides being a great course the staff was fantastic and couldn’t be nicer.

Save your money...play somewhere else.

FANTASTIC

This course was in amazing shape, and the pace of play was unbelievable. As a single, walking, I was about to play in 3 1/2 hours on the north course. This is a must play, and an enjoyable walk if you’re feeling up to it!
