About

Type Public
Style Desert/Links
Par 72
Length 7582 yards
Slope 136
Rating 75.4

There are 27 holes of championship golf at Boulder Creek Golf Club. The holes are divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The Desert Hawk/Eldorado Valley golf course combines the longest and shortest nines. The Desert Hawk nine offers plenty of room with generous greens and wide fairways. Though Eldorado Valley is the shortest, but you would never be able to tell. The nine rewards long drives and there are unobstructed shots from the lush fairways. Water hazards come into play, mostly on the front nine, while the back nine's challenges come from the deep, natural sand bunkers that are strategically positioned along the greens. Throughout the course, golfers will enjoy a scenic and diverse landscape that shifts from desert to verdant meadows accented with colorful wildflowers.

Rude Clerk

I am Asian American, and my handicap is in the single digits. I've been playing at Boulder Creek for more than 10 years, I've played there 6 times this year alone. Even though it's a 40 minute drive, it's one of the best courses in Vegas so I go there often.
When I found Golf Now, I booked all of my tee times through their website. I can make reservations any time of the day, and when I play by myself I can get tee times for a better price, so it's very convenient.
On March 29, I went to Boulder Creek 40 minutes early to practice with my new putter.
I went to check in with the female clerk that I haven't seen often there. She said, "Oh you paid online, so you can go to the starter." but she said it with an unfriendly tone and an unhappy look. I don't know why.
I went out and tipped the young staff member when he carried my bag to the cart, then another staff member came and put range balls in the cart. I told him that I was going to the putting and chipping greens so I didn't need range balls. At that time, the starter told me that another player was going to join and share the cart, so I thought the balls were for them.
As I was waiting for that player, the female clerk suddenly came out of the clubhouse, and started talking to the staff members about me while jerking her head in my direction. Then she told me, "If you want those range balls you need to pay $10!"
So I told her, "What? I'm going to the chipping greens. I didn't ask for those range balls." At that time, the young staff member I tipped felt uncomfortable and began walking away. The lady was then talking to another staff member while looking at me. After that, the young staff member came to me with an uncomfortable look and said "Sorry, me okay. I don't care about the balls." and then he took the range balls off the cart. The lady went back into the clubhouse without saying anything.
What the heck?! How could she be so rude to the customers? When I think about it, anyone who books through Golf Now has to pay $10 for range balls. The young staff members didn't know I booked through Golf Now, and that female clerk probably thought I was tipping them to get the range balls without paying for them.
I told her very clearly that I was going to the putting and chipping greens and that I didn't ask for any range balls. Knowing that, shouldn't she apologize to me? Some golfers are sensitive, the smallest noise can mess up their shot. Because of that lady's rude behavior to me, my whole day was ruined. She could have misunderstood, but even if she was doing her job she shouldn't show such poor attitude to the customers. In the 10 years I've played at this great golf course, I have never met such a rude employee. She needs to change her behavior towards the customers.

Definitely worth going a little ways outside of the city for this course. It’s well maintained, pace of play was great and with the deal on Golf Pass it was definitely worth the money. Carts have a nice GPS feature in them that give you great positioning info and green slope info. We’ll definitely play here again.

Boulder Creek Golf Club

Always a great trip to play Boulder Creek.
Check-in was pleasant & quick as were the bag attendants.
Course itself was in great shape. Fairways, tee boxes all cut to good length and greens always roll true.
Got to play Eldorado this time around as it's been a few years and it also did not disappoint.

great value in the Las Vegas area

Nice driving range/warmup area. Course has a variety of hole setups. Tee boxes are nice and hole lengths vary. Greens are undulating and fast. Bunker sand was inconsistent. I would definitely play again.
