The Links at Arizona Biltmore Golf Club is the "younger" of two golf courses on the Biltmore property, and offers intelligence and innovation, with little room for impatience, on a much-feted design that fast gained reverence from both local and visiting golfers. The golf course features fairways that wind amidst lush pine trees and some of Phoenix's showier houses, greens so bunkered that precision is the minimum to shoot for, and contoured greens that roll as they come. Put the ball where it belongs, and it'll show up on the scorecard; put the ball where it doesn't, and that will show up, too.

After your round on the Links at Arizona Biltmore Golf Club, head in for one of several dining options, from Southwestern to French to Asian to fusion dishes, as well as snacks and high tea post-tee.

Looking to do more than get on the Links at the Arizona Biltmore Golf Club and have a nibble and a cup? Look into one of several packages available, including stay-and-play deals.

Slow pace of play, bad fairways

The links course is a fun Course to play. I was surprised by the shape of the tee boxes and fairways. In bad shape, minimal grass. Driving your ball in the fairway should not be penalized because there is no grass. Tee boxes are the same way. Nothing but divots. Pace of play was bad as a large group held up the couse all morning long.

Horrible Pace of Play

Started at 8:08 by the 3rd hole, 3 foursomes were already waiting on the 3rd tee. The course really should have had more awareness and control of the play. I gave up at 11 after 4 hours in. Do better.

Arizona Biltmore Links

It's always enjoyable playing the Biltmore Links course. I enjoy the layout and open feel of this course. Fairways are sparse though, and sometimes I needed to move my ball from dirt to grass for my next shot.

Fairways and tee boxes were rough. Greens were nice. Clouds helped with the heat. Fun day

Skip it.

Played three days ago. Fairways are terrible - in most places no grass. Greens are hard, but they will roll out. If you can play here for under $40 then maybe you will find value. Otherwise, look elsewhere.

Links Course

Biltmore Links course is challenging and fun play. It seems a little dried out for this time of the year but in good shape. The greens look fast but are actually quite slow. Still it was worth playing.

Great people, course was burned out

Overall I enjoyed my round here, but links was pretty burned out… probably getting to a point where they are trying to kill off the winter stuff and reseed, but the greens and tee boxes need some desperate love. Many par 4s had dirt for fairways, kind of disheartening if you hit a great tee shot and aren’t rewarded with any kind of grass for approach shots. The course wasn’t super challenging in terms of layout- it really favors beginners with slices or power fades off the tee. I’d love to play this course again to see how it is in better condition if it gets there

Cow Pasture

Awful experience! Seemed like they stopped watering months ago. The entire course was basically 'ground under repair'. Fairways were crap, greens were worse. This place is a disaster. I wouldn't pay 20.00 to play here. They should be ashamed of themselves.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

We had wonderful day. Have not played the links in the past but thoroughly enjoyed it. Of course needs a little bit of water like everything else at this time of year.

We had lunch afterwards at the Adobe Grill, which was a 10 out of 10.

Arizona Biltmore Links Course

For the price of a Scottsdale/Biltmore course, it was in ok shape. There was a lot of dead grass in the fairway. Also it appears that they dumped sand in some spots on the fairway.

So disappointing!

We have been coming to Phoenix for decades and The Links at Biltmore used to be a beautiful gem. Never the toughest test but always well maintained. Now it is an embarrassment. I am talking about everything from Tee boxes , fairways, bunkers and greens. The decision to have tee times every 8 minutes is an obvious cash grab. I can only imagine what Glen Campbell thinks looking down from heaven. Do better Biltmore.

Well worth it!

I booked this course to treat myself as a birthday gift. From the moment I pulled up the friendliness of the staff, the condition of the course, and the food at the restaurant was top shelf. 10 out of 10 experience, and we will definitely do it again.

First time on the links course definitely won’t be my last!!

Haven’t played at The Biltmore for over 5 years and was pleasantly surprised. From the brand new clubhouse to the terrific staff I was very pleased with what they had to offer. Other than the tee boxes needing a little work I really enjoyed my day playing the links course. The views of the mountains and incredible homes that surround the course make this a must do course to experience. I can’t wait for my next round at the Biltmore Links!
