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.

Nothing like the photos

Poor condition, terrible tee boxes. Green fees should only be about $40. That would match up to course conditions.

Horrible Pace of Play

After experiencing challenges last year we decided to give the course another chance. We teed off at 1:16 PM and finally stopped playing on hole 14 at 4:45 PM at that point in time there were three foursomes sitting on the Teebox waiting. The teetimes are two compressed for the skill level of the golfers for this course. In addition it is not in the greatest shape. Not worth $150/person!

Biltmore

This is such an awesome course in a beautiful and historic part of town. For the value the course isn’t in great shape and the pace of play is as bad as it gets. Really hope the Biltmore crew throws some money into it because it’s a great track and has so much potential.

Disappointed

It had been a while since I last played here and was surprised and disappointed with how the conditions had deteriorated. The carts were really dirty, the tee box’s were scarred and in some cases we were playing from bare dirt. The bunkers were thin and hard but the greens were in decent condition. I have played local muni’s that were in far better shape than this once proud resort course.

Links

Overall the course was an interesting lay out and an enjoyable experience. I didn’t play well, not familiar with the the layout and the greens. Tee boxes were in really rough shape.

I would definitely play it again, hopefully with better results…. Haha

How do you spell OLD ?

How do you spell old and tired with an emphasis on OLD and TIRED. I felt I was playing on a course in 1950. Add to that tees that had little if any grass and traps so hard you could get out with a putter. I talked to the pro who admitted that he hadn't played the course is quite some time. Apparently the maintenance crew hadn't been there in quite some time either. .

Enjoyable Round

As mid handicap golfers, my friend & I found this course very enjoyable to play. Aesthetically pleasing and a wonderful layout.. I've played the Adobe course once before and found the Links course more challenging. The only complaints I have is that the tee boxes were mostly dirt and yhe sand traps could use new sand. Staff was friendly and lunch was great!

Variety

The variety of holes makes Links interesting and challenging. Just enough water and traps to get your attention yet allow bale outs when necessary. Greens could have been a little softer and the traps a little more consistent

Fun in the sun

The links course is definitely a fun challenge with some beautiful scenery in an amazing area of Scottsdale .

While it is called the “ links “ course this is not links golf but no big deal as it is a fun and challenging little course.

The greens on the front side are on the smaller side so it’s best to go for the center of the green .

The course conditions however when I played we’re not what was expected with a price tag of 168 bux for 18 .

Tee boxes were barren and some fairways were shaggy .

Overall I was happy with the day because how can you not enjoy perfect weather in a perfect place like Scottsdale .

Very nice course

The Biltmore Links course is very scenic, playable but still challenging. The pace was good for a Saturday. The staff was helpful and friendly. Fairways were excellent and the greens were fast, true and in great shape.

The only reason I don’t rate this course with 5 stars is because of the very poor condition of the tee boxes. I could barely get a tee into the ground it was so hard and there was very little grass anywhere to be found. The tee is the only place you can and should have a perfect lie but it was the opposite of that. The tees are sloped irregularly and basically like a dirt patch. More of an impact on par 3s but bad esthetics too. I realize that round counts are off the charts but they could do better.
