Boulder Creek Golf Club boasts three nine-hole courses, which can be played in different 18-hole combinations. Though this Boulder City club is a bit off the beaten path, the scenic location is well worth the drive. The terrain provides different challenges on each nine. The Desert Hawk/Coyote Run combination begins with the longest of the three nines. Desert Hawk has plenty of room for lengthy drives and clear shots to generous fairways. There are also opportunities to work on your short game skills, it's a nine that will have you using all the clubs in your bag. The back nine is just as diverse with varying elevation changes that depending on where your ball lands can either be a boon or a punishment. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes.

Slow play no marshals

I have played this course many times and overall it's a great experience if you want to drive out to Boulder City

that that being said the last time we played they had booked a golf package tour for about 20 players that day..

why they even gave us a tee time is beyond me

About hole 9 we started getting backed up and it stayed that way for the rest of the round

5 hour round is not good out there

I don't understand what happened why they overbooked

Can I get some water?!

Boulder Creek is always a fun tract to play. Greens rolled true. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. However it would help if someone actually made the decision to have that accommodating staff put water bottles in the coolers when it’s 100 degrees in the desert.

A Marshall would also be a novel idea to keep everyone moving at an enjoyable pace instead of just having the starter tell you that the pace is about 2:20-2:30 for nine holes. If 5 hour rounds are now the norm, it would have been nice to see the drink cart more than one time.

Boulder Creek Never Disappoints

We travel to Las Vegas annually and usually golf 3 - 4 days during our visit. Boulder Creek Golf Club is always one of our favorites. The course is always in excellent shape and the staff are all top notch. I always use TeeOff to get a good deal and if you’re persistent, you can get a much better rate than advertised.

Weekend review

Boulder Creek, consistently a good experience and one I always recommend to others.

After a unusually slower round than normal, One recommendation to the club house staff… While the carts now track pace of play, it would be nice if someone on the team would encourage slow groups to pick up the pace.
