Differentiation is crucial when developing properties with 36 holes or more. Some owners opt to engage multiple designers to bring unique perspectives to the property, while others rely on a single architect’s varied approaches. The Boulders Club exemplifies this strategy by leveraging its natural landforms to create distinctive courses.
Throughout the property, large rock formations, particularly in the southern part, stand out as unique features that enhance the course’s appeal. Designed by Jay Morrish, the South course at The Boulders offers players a geological spectacle akin to a museum tour.
Highlights include the par three 7th hole, where golfers tee off next to the famous “Rosie’s Rock,” a massive boulder resting atop a smaller stone altar. Equally impressive is the approach shot on the par five 5th hole, framed by the imposing “Boulder Pile” rock formation towering behind the green. Visitors are encouraged to bring a camera to capture the natural beauty and Morrish’s architectural integration.
