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.

Poor conditions for a prestigious course

The conditions on the front were horrible, would be nice to play on grass. The back was better but this course needs a lot of attention. Would not be back any time soon. I have had better luck in the winter months, no excuses. Make it nice or shut it down.

Great place

The course was in really good shape and was greatly improved from when I last played it 2 years ago. Golf shop staff is friendly and polite. Outdoor services guys were helpful. Pace of play was great. Starter and rangers were nice guys. New restaurant and bar is beautiful. Only criticism is there are a few dead trees by first tee and on 18 that need to be cut down. Definitely recommend this place.

The money seems to have gone into the Adobe

I've been playing The Biltmore for years and always enjoyed the layout and condition of The Links course. However in recent years they have been renovating, changing the layout of the Adobe and totally rebuilding the clubhouse and restaurant area. Unfortunately the driving range and practice facility are currently closed also.

I feel as if they have prioritized these projects and not upkeep on the Links course, which is unfortunate. The grass was in considerably poor condition even for summer, the ground everywhere was hard and compact so there was little to no control for any shot, and the bunkers so hard and compacted that you are not able to get under the ball at all.

The Adobe did look in great shape but I only saw the "show" holes so it's possible there could be other issues.

I'll skip The Biltmore for a while.

Greet course for the money

This course offers a little of everything. Narrow desert holes with wide open ones next to other holes. The new pro shop and bar and restaurant is beautiful and will be coming back just for those Phoenix views.

Surprisingly not fun golf course

Besides having amongst the nicest staff and exceptional lounging facilities and golf shop…the course couldn’t decide if it was firm and fast or muddy and slow. The greens are meh. Getting a good lie is a coin toss regardless of where you hit the ball and the bunkers seem like they haven’t had moisture or even raking in the past 2 months. If I wasn’t schedule to play here..it would be unlikely that I would ever play that side on purpose again. Kind of disappointing.

Justin

This course is closest to my house so you can say it’s my home course. I do love the layout and most of the time in great condition. Recently tho there is some blading on some hole fairways I know it’s the time of year where it’s warmer so it’s a slight change of seasons. Also the past few times has been a bit crazier than others. My buddy and I played a couple Saturdays ago and it was almost 6 hours for the day! Other than that I always have a great time at the links side.

Not worth the money, even with discounts

The welcoming club guys were nice. The Pro Shop lady was very nice. I did hear one of the Pro Shop guys make a comment to a single player not to play with the 11:00 group, "they are some unknown people, you will have more fun with the 11:08 group. I just thought that was rude, he doesn't know those people. The starter was great. The golf course is a piece of crap, all dried out, and the 15 minutes plus per hole is ridiculous. I don't think I would ever play here again. They really need to fix this place and tee times.

Sad excuse for a course

Plays more like a municipal course than a course associated with the great name Biltmore.

The tee boxes were a disgrace, there was zero sand in the bunkers and several par 3s were ridiculously short <90 yards.

A sad excuse for a course. I would not play it again
