Beautiful but needs work
Great layout and views. The sand traps need a lot of work, a lot of grass in them and growing down from the rough into the traps.
Also, some of the greens don’t look very good for a course with a high price tag like this one.
A true desert experience!
First time golfing in Arizona and found a great deal on GolfNow so jumped on it. Such a cool course! Don’t know if I’d pay full price, but I thought the course was in good shape and the scenery was awesome. I can see why it’s on many lists of places to visit in the Phoenix area. Also liked that the green fee included cart, range balls, towel and tees to use etc.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
A little pricey but I would play it again. Maybe a bit “dated” in places. Staff was outstanding.
9.5
The Boulders is in a beautiful setting and the courses are good layouts, however the playing conditions, tee boxes through the greens, left much to be desired.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the course conditions. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
NICE SETTING
COST in today Market very expensive .Did play the Coarse because a special on this particular T- time.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Our rates go down April 25th. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
A little far north but nice.
No mention of Food really only on Bev Cart. Grill took too long for sandwiches to order. Eat before or Bev Cart is only option on course.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. We would like to apologize for the lack of food options. I will pass on to our Food and Beverage managers. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
play it once
Beautiful course. Play it once and you can cross it off your list. Not worth the price. I will not play here again.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback.Our rates go down April 25th.. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Several greens in front nine South very poor condition

Top notch course
They said it would be about the experience. It was. I totally enjoyed the day even though even hitting from the forward tees it was a bit more than I could handle. Duffers like me should be be forewarned. I thought the fees were very steep, although I was told they were the norm for “in season”. So I paid the freight, took the photos, bought the shirt and will have good memories.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Glad you enjoy the round. See you again soon
Disappointed…
We like challenging courses. Played the North course after a nice lunch at the Grill. Expected the course to be more interesting and exciting for the price. Fairways were in good shape but greens were a bit beat up. Sand traps were like cement. Some sand traps were hard to walk into and walk out of. Play was slow. Staff were very friendly.
Good not great
Having played both sides I can say that the Boulders south course is fantastic.. memorable. North, not so much. Conditions were fine, no real complaints but far from outstanding.
I would not pay 300 again to play North course, it lacks any special or memorable holes and was not in sufficient condition to justify the price. You'd be better playing something like Troon North.
Finally, I know that this course is not the only one to do it, however, the 7% "water surcharge" buried in the fine print is outrageous. State what the real price is if you think the course demands it.
Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Looking forward to you giving The Boulders a second chance. Hope to see you again soon.
Good news we have a bunker renovation scheduled for this summer. Hope to see you back soon.
Thanks
