Rating 75.8

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.

Fun courses - good value

Played Hawk creek and eldorado 9s. Hawk creek had the greens punched but the course was in good condition. Eldorado greens were in great shape and quick.

Starter was incredibly friendly. Would definately play here again for the value of less than $100 (hot deal).

One of the best deals in Vegas

Course was in great condition. We played Coyote and Eldorado. Not sure if this was planned, but as we approached the 1st tee box on Coyote Run a coyote pranced across the fairway. The practice range was huge. The dessert area was playable and fairly easy to find errant shots. I'll definitely play this gem again on my future visits.

Really loved the course

Both nines I played the coyote and hawk were really nice and in excellent condition. The greens ran very true and a little fast and were basically a dream to putt on. My two buddies said this was the best course they have ever played, I’m not willing to go that far but I absolutely loved it and would highly recommend. Also I booked on golf now and got a $68 rate on golf now at 9am that includes range balls. Rental clubs were Cleveland’s that I liked they came with six balls and a bag of tees for $50

Great layout

First time playing and all of us in our foursome loved it. Played pretty much all of the public courses in the Vegas area and I would rate this course as one of the top 5. Great layout, very nice condition overall including the greens at this time of the season. Will definitely come back.

Boulder Creek

Course was in fabulous condition, absolutely loved it. It was a bit warm out (112), but as long as you stayed hydrated, wet towels around your neck, it wasn’t too bad. I’ve played this course several times and it never disappoints.
