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.

Quality Course

Even though windy and cold, this course is always a quality play. The 3 nines make it always full of variety. I always play this course when in Las Vegas.p

Golf Vegas in January, 2022

Greens sub par compared to Chimaera or Rhodes Ranch. Locals say since city took over management of course it is declining. Played here 5 years ago different and better course. Love the lay out on Coyoto Run and Desert Hawk. Maybe city will put money into course. Great Layout. $50 course for out of town golfers. Shop around.

More sand than I care to see, especially when it isn't really sand, but more like gravel. Other than that, it was winter golf so all in all a terrific golf course

I was surprised at the condition of the fairways grass was all dormant hardly any grass to hit the ball off of

The ball would roll forever

The staff was very nice and amiable. The day was very cold 46 degrees at start. The course is challenging as there are many dirt filled barrancas throughout which are nearly impossible to get out of. There was no mention of these by the staff even though they knew I had never played there before. The fairways were not in very good condition even though this was winter, they should have been kept in better shape. I probably will not return as here are many other courses closer to me in the Vegas area that are in better condition.

Nice Course for Late Fall

We had a great time. For late in the year we thought this course was in good shape. Greens were fast but smooth. They were a little hard and balls didn’t hold so we had to adjust.
