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.

South Course

Called the day previous to confirm no issues with the course…gentleman on the phone said course was in great shape and they would start aerificaton on the greens Monday. Showed up to the course and on the drive in notice the fairways of the south course were completely yellow and sprayed to hurry the Bermuda to go dormant (in preparation to lay rye). No notice in description on golfnow or troon website. Fortunately the guys in the proshop discounted our round, and made things right! On a brighter note, they recently reseeded the practice putting green to Bermuda and it was in the best shape I’ve ever seen it. The greens rolled pure on the south course and were reseeded to Bermuda as well almost 2 years ago and are softening up a bit but it is still quite difficult to hold. They’ve also eliminated the evasive species of grass that was popping up in the greens that had to be driving the regulars crazy.

Beautiful course

Must play course in great condition with scenic views and challenging landscape. Played on a nice cloudy day and had a great time. Extras cost extra, haha but range is free and really I got a smoking deal so can't complain.

Amazing course, lots of fun. It’s summer in AZ so it wasn’t in perfect shape but the greens were immaculate. Summer weather evident on fairways. Looking forward to playing again!

I’ve been living in Phoenix since 1989 and have always wanted to play The Boulders but never had, until Thursday… Well it was well worth the wait!! That was one of the nicest courses that I’ve ever played, a day I won’t soon forget! I found a “hot deal” and snatched it up right away! Thank you for offering us those kinds of deals!

Scottsdale staycation…..

I had an awesome first time experience yesterday playing @ the Boulders! I had planned to play at Kierland Resort (staying there), until I came across an awesome “hot deal” that I just couldn’t pass up! One of the best courses that I’ve ever played! Just fantastic, I’ll definitely be back!!!

Beautiful course, t-blocks, fairways, sand traps and greens in great shape.

I have been looking forward to playing this course. The course has many challenging holes. Unlike many courses the bunkers actually had sand and were well maintained. The only reason I did not rate this course better was the practice area for greens and chipping were closed for maintenance. There was no notice of this when making t-times. The pace of play was about four hours and 30 min. I would love to play the course again.

Beautiful view, friendly staff; tight!

What a course ! Where other courses are crying “it’s shutdown and plugging time” there is no sign of that at the boulders. Just gorgeous. Amenities are great nice having balls at range and no worry about bringing balls with you. Ball markers, divot tools etc. are plenty. Washroom facilities are great. Only drawback is that some of the direction to tee boxes are confusing ended up making a lot of u turns :)
