Nestled among 12-million-year-old boulders in the scenic desert foothills near Scottsdale, Arizona, Boulders Golf Club & Resort is one of the country's most prestigious resort destinations. The North golf course at Boulders plays big brother to the South Course, and offers bentgrass and marvelous views of the Black Mountain, as the course winds through the community of Boulders. Both golf courses spring from the desert foothills and feature take-your-breath-away panoramic vistas -- among those of spectacular formations of boulders, stunning Sonora sunsets and indigenous terrain.

Great track and scenery
Wonderful layout and beautiful all around. Pace of play and staff were both excellent.
My only complaints were the condition of the greens. They apologized for the condition of the practice green (and should have), but the greens on the south course also weren’t up to the conditions I’d expect given the green fee rate.
Definitely worth the rate I paid, but full price would’ve left me disappointed in the greens.

Great :-)
Just a great place outside of Scottsdale in the "Sonoran Desert". In the middle of a resort. A clear MUST play 😊
Course was fun, drink prices were outrageous
Course had a nice layout but grass could be in better shape being a “top” AZ course. Drink prices were insane. $85 for 6 nooners, $115 for 3 cocktails and a turkey wrap I could have got from the gas station. I most likely won’t go back.

Disappointment
I had high hopes for this place. I couldn’t believe how crappy it was. Greens were concrete & poorly maintained (photo attached for example - many were like this). Most tee boxes were domed, chunked up, & hard as a rock. The South course doesn’t have access to the proshop at the then so we had to wait for the beverage cart which we only saw twice. The giant boulders were cool but not much better than you can see from the road.
