North at Boulders Golf Club & Resort
About
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.

Excellent
We got a $65 rate, a steal for this course. We had an excellent lunch before the round. Pace was right at 4 hours. Course was in great shape except the greens were bumpy and a little shaggy as it was the end of the day. I’d love to play this course again.
The Best
This is just a great place to play golf, beautiful beyond words, with one great hole after another.
It would be very hard to get any better than this.
As good as advertised
Playing the Boulders is like stepping back to Bedrock with the Flintstones! Incredible beauty that has been thousands of years in the making. The staff was over the top nice. My wife road along and they treated her as a player and welcomed her and thanked her for coming along. I'd recommend it for everyone's bucket list.
Wonderful course great views
This is a great course with a great staff speedy greens and great vistas.
Play
Great day and desert golf for us Canadiens in Scottsdale for 8 days.
Spectacular vistas!
The views in all directions were stunning
However had too much time to look at them as pace of play was extremely slow
Front 9 shorter but more challenging
Definitely worth the price to play there
Nice tract, beautiful views, greens were quick but held approach shots well. Shot placement is key and greens can be tough to read. Even saw some wild pigs. Only downside was cart paths only.
Disappointing
I've heard a lot about this course, up there with the best in the valley. It was beautiful as far as landscape, which is to be expected in the north valley area. The course was in terrible shape, however. We started off the 10th and the fairways and greens were brown. The rough was no better. We only paid $94 a piece which would have been a good deal if the course was in decent shape.
It was only myself and a friend. We are in our high 20s early 30s. The group ahead of us was only two people, yet for some reason we were paired with another group. It was an early afternoon tee time, so we assumed any extremely serious golfers would have been off in the morning. It was a couple well into their 70s. I wouldn't normally care, but the fact that the group ahead of us was a twosome made us wonder why we were paired at all. Aside from golf, we had nothing in common with this couple that we were paired with and it was a shame. I can't say that the course should ask for ages beforehand, but there's no way the starter thought that it was a good pairing, especially considering how slow the course was at this point.
All in all, a disappointing day that did not allow for us to enjoy ourselves on a golf course because of an avoidable situation.
South course
Incredible views, great layout, awesome greens. Played blue tees, course is tight and tough to decide on shot to hit at times due to lack of GPS on carts. Otherwise first rate track wanted to go right back out and play it again now that I have an idea what shot is called for knowing the course a little better. If I hit lotto this is the club I would join. Top two of golf courses I have played in valley in 23 years playing here.
Beautiful scenery
This is a very picturesque course. Play was around 4.5 hours, it backed up the last 5 or 6 holes. The greens were fair and ran true. The greens are very well bunkered , some very deep. Entering can be costly. A tough course for a high handicapper, not for the distance , but due to all the bunkering. However the landscape and scenery is worth a visit.
Should play if you can afford it
Great course. Found it to be fairly challenging. Beautiful course. Well maintained. Grass was solid.
Pace of play was good. Cart path only at the time we played maybe slowed things down a bit. Would recommend to anyone who could afford it.
over seeding, cart path only
I enjoyed the course but with cart path only the round took 5 hours, we teed off at 1:00 and almost did not finish
Not Bad, not inspiring
Played the North Course on a Saturday. Was told it was in excellent shape and were expecting to see a lot of green. We must be spoiled in Wisconsin as we have a very different definition of green in this state.
Very playable track and played with a 1 handicap who from the middle tees could not use driver. From the back tees, a long hitter can hit away and not have any real issues as long as they know where the fairways and doglegs end. The front 9 greens are fortified with plenty of deep bunkers and if you catch one, you have to be a good bunker player to save par. There wasn't much sand in the bunkers so getting out was a challenge. They also appear to have lessened the bunkering on the back 9 as I noticed a few spots where they replaced the bunkers with grass (not complaining as I found plenty on the front). You have a mountain view on the front 9 but none on the back 9. It was a nice mix of thinking golf and stupid golf as I like to say.
The scenery wasn't inspiring but I think that is reserved for the more re-known South course which was closed for reseeding.
Great staff and I would come back to give the South course a try. Looks like a great resort for a weekend getaway as that's exactly what my playing partner and his wife were doing that weekend.
Disappointing......North Course
I understand this time of year most courses in the area are going into the overseeding, but this course was in poor shape. Luckily we found a deal on GolfNow for $55, I feel sorry for the golfers that paid the $140+ to play this course. Many blind tee shots, this course you would need to play a few times before you get a feel for it. Stay away for now, hopefully it bounces back after the overseeding.
Quick round of 3.5hrs, as the course was dead.
The cool photos of all the rock formations around the property are on the South Course...... which unfortunately was closed at the time
North course
All round good experience, outdoor staff very helpful and accommodating. Fairways and greens good condition. Not many players so just over 3 hr round for 2 ball
