Great time at The Boulder Golf Club
Amazing condition in the peak of summer. Green were in excellent shape. Had the best front none of my life. Can’t say the same for my back nine. Lol. I will be playing this course again.
Awesome course.
Amazing shape for July golf in Arizona. Worth the money. Worth the drive. Great views, Greens ran true, fairways were well kept, bunkers had great sand. Staff was fantastic. I’ll definitely be back. 10/10.
Excellent
This was the first time we played here and definitely won’t be the last, the course was kept immaculate, me and my sons will make the boulders one of our favorites . Thanks , the Labbe’s
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Great!
Course was in great condition. Very responsive greens, pace of play was fast. 10/10 would recommend
Yup yup
Great staff and layout. Look forward to summer deal times
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Beautiful scenery
This is a very fun place to play desert golf. There are great desert views but the course is very playable although challenging at the same time!
I would highly recommend playing here especially if you can pick up a hot rate!
Beautiful course
Played the North course. Was a beautiful course in excellent condition. Two of the 18 holes were recently aerated but did not detract from the experience. This is definitely on my list of coursed to play again, especially at the lower summer rates.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Beautiful
What a beautiful, challenging course. I had wanted to play this course for years. It was well worth the wait. A little soggy in some places which produced a number of mud balls but well worth the drive. I plan to play it again soon.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Boulders is a must
Boulders north is a great golf course with plenty of challanging holes. Very scenic and full of wildlife.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Great day at Boulders
So there were really bad reviews for the Boulders and we were very skeptical about playing there. I never played the Boulders and really wanted to play so we did it. Great round! The staff in the restaurant and golf shop were over the top good. We played the North course and it was in very good shape. I think the prior reviews were for the South course? Anyway I'll be back for sure!
Sloooww play
5 stars for the course and staff. This is a great course and location. We always enjoy playing both North and South courses. Unfortunately, yesterday was painfully slow due to 2 foursomes ahead that wouldn’t speed up or let me play through. They were either locals or members and knew I was waiting on them since hole #2, never offered to let me through while they were hitting 2 balls on most holes. Great course, just poor etiquette.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Sorry About the slow play. We pride ourselves on 4.5 hr rounds. Hope to see you again soon
South course greens are dead
I have taken groups of 30 - 40 to The Boulders numerous times over the past 20 years. This course was one of our group's favorites and I bragged to the new members of the trip how much they would enjoy the day. We were told the greens were scheduled to be punched and were offered a discounted rate when I made the reservations five weeks out. Upon arrival the cart attendants told me the greens were a disaster and unplayable as something happened during the punching process. We were not offered any additional discount or or even advised by the clubhouse of the situation. Arriving at the 1st green on the South Course we were shocked. All of the greens are unplayable and frankly the course should be shut down. Playing another course later in the week that manager told me The Boulder's greens had been killed by mistake and they would all need to be replaced. I advise skipping the course until they replace all the 18 dead greens on the South course !!
Good news we have a bunker / green renovation scheduled for this summer. Hope to see you back in November when we have both courses back open.
Thanks
Course should be closed while greens top dressed
Greens were punched and top dressed. Still no grass coming through the sand and should not be in play until greens return to being playable.
Good news we have a bunker / green renovation scheduled for this summer. Hope to see you back in November when we have both courses back open.
Thanks
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
