Kids all over the course

The greens were so slow, almost impossible to find the bottom of the cup. That being said, my Wife and I had a 6:08 tee time what should have been the second group to tee off but supprisly the pro shop wasn't open when we got there around 5:45 am. When the pro shop opened two groups of golfers checked in before us and headed to the first tee box. The six-some, yes a six-some, three children and three adults, allowed us (even though they had a 7:00 tee time) to play through them because they were going to be playing slow. By the second tee box the three adults allowed the children to play ahead of them which means these kids, ages from 10-14 years old played right up on the two of us. A couple of holes they drove past us since they where using the red and gold tee boxes and we were using white. They had a radio they would play while we where teeing off and then by the 12th hole they started chasing each other all over the fairways with the carts, all while the adults were two to three holes behind. I guess this course doesn't use marshals or ambassadors to regulate golfers. Kinda made for an aggravating round of golf, if it was wasn't for this the day would have been pretty good.

Thank you for playing Cimarron and also for leaving your feedback. I am sorry you have had such a negative experience at our course and I will discuss your review with our General Manager.

This time of year, we do not regularly staff marshalls because it is typically very slow. Please feel free to call the pro shop during your round if you have any issues on the course.

In addition, our greens may be a little bit longer than normal because of the extreme heat (110+) we have had in recent weeks. We have had several neighboring courses lose their greens in the last few weeks so we are keeping our greens a little longer than normal to ensure that they do not die on us.

We hope you will come back and try Cimarron when we are in season. The course is usually in terrific shape and we offer one of the best values in the desert.

Where’s the Shade?

The Boulder course is challenging and well maintained. We were able to complete our afternoon round (2 of us) in 4 hours. We never experienced a slow down and we were never rushed. There is a nice clubhouse that serves a nice lunch. There is absolutely no shade on the course. Better apply a thick layer of sunscreen.

Great course for your money.

Staff was great, even got to do a few holes with the head pro, Styles, very nice guy. Course was in pretty good condition and the greens were good as well, maybe a little dry though, but still good.
My wife road around with me for free, as it wasn’t that busy and she wasn’t taking a seat from a golfer, nice deal.
The waiter in the lounge was very nice as well, had a couple sandwiches and glasses of wine, all very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this course.

Greens are not good

This course has gone thru some significant damage in the last few years, so from that standpoint the fairways and rough are in good shape. The conditions of the greens are another story. They are inconsistent, are not in good shape and are very bumpy. I would not recommend this course unless you are able to secure a price below their regular rates.

Nice course with great pace of play. Course was in good shape other than the traps which were quite hard probably due to winds.

No carts, club stolen

Arrived 1 hour before tee time, no carts, maybe 15 people waiting. . Walk to range (long walk), walk back, still no carts. Get cart 4 minutes prior to time. 4th hole, homeless camp, under the bridge, woman comes and steals brand new driver from cart, runs off into desert. Wind was blowing 40 mph. Beer after was good though.

Stolen club and not enough carts

Waited an hour to get a cart. Hoofed to and from range, longish walk. No water for cleaning clubs at range. On 4th hole where there is a homeless camp under bridge, one of group had their driver stolen. Water stations on course were empty. Not a great experience. Course itself is ok.

Pace of play poor

Need Marshall to improve pace of play. Took 5 hrs to play due to groups not keeping up, searching for golf balls in ponds and ignoring waiting groups behind them. Called clubhouse and were told no one could come out and get the group holding up play to move up in vacate the course. Ruins enjoyment of the game when no one cares to fix the problem. Cost of tee times has gone up every year with less care as to how those paying these rates are treated

5 hour rounds

If you want to start 15 to 20 minutes after your tee time and take 5 hours to play after you start, this place is for you. We played there 5 times this year January to March 2024, was always 15 plus minutes behind. The first 3,rounds took 4:40 the last 2 took 5 hours. The only reason we went back the last time was because of a hot deal, plus I want to give them a last chance before I never play there again. No luck 5 hours.
Was told by the pro shop that they considered the course to be a resort course and 5 hours is not unusual for a resort course. So if you like 4:45 to 5:00 hour rounds, this place is for you.
