Ranked 40th in Arizona by Top 100 Golf Courses
Slightly longer and more open than its southern counterpart, the North Course showcases the full beauty of its desert surroundings. With generous fairways framed by towering boulders and lush desert flora, it provides a balance of playability and challenge.
Strategic bunkering and subtly contoured greens reward precision, while panoramic mountain vistas make it an unforgettable round.
Ranked 47th in Arizona by Top 100 Golf Courses
Set against the backdrop of the breathtaking Black Mountain, the South Course at The Boulders Club delivers a true desert golf adventure. Winding through massive granite formations and natural arroyos, it offers a more target-style layout that demands thoughtful shot placement and a steady hand.
