About The Boulders Resort & Spa Scottsdale

Located in Carefree just north of Scottsdale is the Boulders Resort, a Curio Collection hotel by Hilton. This 1,200-acre resort and community features striking, millions-year-old boulder formations and two, 18-hole golf courses that encircle them. The resort is a village compound with spacious casitas with private balconies, as well as a handful of villas and homes for rent. The golf club features two courses, the North and South, as well as a driving range and golf academy. Boulders is well known for its Golden Door Spa with 33,000 square feet and 24 treatment rooms, plus a wide variety of fitness classes and programming. There are five dining concepts, highlighted by the Spotted Donkey Cantina, well known locally for its Mexican fare. The beauty and tranquility of the Sonoran Desert is on full, luxurious display at the Boulders Resort.

Not so sunny in Arizona

What started as a decent day for golf turned into a wet and cold day. The course at the Boulders South course was what you would expect from a high end facility. Just beautiful. I felt my handicap go down by 5 strokes. Then the rain. Still finished 18 and had a great time with friends. Pace of play was perfect. Recommend the course to everyone.

Great Course

We played most of the top courses in the Phoenix area & this was our favorite. It is very expensive and tough, but the conditions are great & the course is beautiful.

Good track, Good condition

Course is in good shape, dormant bermuda eliminates rough so the ball can spin out into the desert if on a poor line.even from a hit fairway. Greens roled well and have about a 10 stimp speed. Could have used a cart girl befor ethe 9tgreen, but saw her twice on the back. Good day and a 4:10 round
