18 holes
only 18 holes were open and the pace of play was slow for an afternoon tee time. course wasn't as nice as last year when I played it at this time
Great layout.
In Scottsdale for 14 nights definitely best course played.
From turning up at the bag drop to finishing your round the staff go out their way to make you feel welcome.
The course as in excellent condition. Would play again tomorrow if could.
Great course
Was our first time out here. It was a great course and very challenging. Great shape overall.
Greens were recently punched.
If you see a special Hot Deal for the Boulders club these days there is a good chance they just punched the greens. I experienced that this week and although the greens were just done the rest of the course is in terrific shape. With it being 100 degrees it would have been nice to see the cart girl more than once in my round. All in all a great and challenging track.
Great Course & Staff9
Top notch staff at checkin, got right out, everyone over the top friendly. Greens slightly bumpy due to recent aeration, but was advised up front. Found course extremely challenging from the blue tees at just over 6700 yards. I am an 11 handicap. Beautiful layout, everything as advertised. Lost a club at the course and had to fly home the same night. Contacted by course that my club was found and they would send it to my house at no extra cost even though I offered to pay for shipping. Not many courses give that kind of service. The Head Pro, Deane, was such a great ambassador to the course with service and answering questions. Lastly, had an excellent meal at the Grille afterwards. Overall, just a top notch course and staff. A must play, can't wait to come back!
The course layout is very good.
The only problem with course was the greens were bumpy due to being punched recently. Pace of play was slow.
Living a dream
Always wanted to play. Staff fantastic!!! Cart guys Ryan made a special effort for me! The started to, Would love to be a member! All facilities driving range, course, clubhouse, staff 10+, Thanks much!

Really good course
It is a challenging course, you have to plan a lot of shots, and you have to keep it in play, if it goes off course it’s gone.
Aerating
When I booked the Tee time, no one told me that the course would be aerated until I got an email from Golf Now. I called the course in the morning of my tee time and asked if the course was aerated and was told that the North course was aerated and not the south course. I get there and find the South course had been aerated which meant you could not putt on the greens and get a true run of the ball.
Top 5 in Az
Great views,layout,condition. Greens smooth and running at a 10.
Pace of play was good. 4 hours and 20 min. Gave time to look at the views.
A must play.
Worth the drive to Carefree Arizona
The course was in excellent condition and the views from every hole are scenic and awesome. For a desert course the preservation and variation of the cacti are special. For those of us who remember the Flintstones it feels like you’re playing in Bedrock which is a good thing.
Too frequent tee times
The course is always slow. I have played 4 times and same experience. Wait on every tee box...no rythm. Ranger says everything moving well. I disagree.
