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.

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!

Love it!

The facilities are fantastic! Played the South course. Great layout, in very good condition, with spectacular views of rock formations all around. Large range with nice grass and plenty of balls. Separate chipping & putting greens. 1st time playing here. The greens are very firm, bent grass. Hard to adjust to, based on other courses I played recently in the Scottsdale area. Very challenging holes with some blind shots. I hope to play this again, as I'll be more prepared for shot selection and greens.

played the south because that is the only option - some genius in management decided there would be no more alternative course offerings and people are not happy.
