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.

Simply the best and worth every penny to play

I use dot e member here and miss it more than anything and any course. Chad has been there forever and has always been an amazing to person with great customer service skills. The new restaurant, clubhouse and the redesign of the Adobe course is just a wonderful upgrade. I just love this place and it all always have a special place in my heart.

Tough conditions

Save your money, This is a good course when conditions are good. They are not. Very dry, minimal grass. Sanded greens are not consistent speeds. Too much money for the conditions.

Good Course But Needs Water And Care

Tee Boxes and Greens were much better then Fairways. Lots of scorched fairways with long stretches of no green grass. Course needs water and better care to bring it up to par. Front nine is flat, longer and has 3 doglegs. Back nine has many elevated tees and greens and is more challenging. The $79 fee is too high for what is offered. Better rates and conditions can be found at Starfire, Orange Tree and Talking Stick.

Beautiful course!

I’ve been wanting to play this course for a long time and was finally able to find a reasonable rate here on Golf Now. Challenging greens and very difficult bunkers on Links course which is the only one I would want to play.! Pro shop is fully stocked with shirts, hats and other swag!

Great for an Out-of-Towner

I think some of the reviews about conditions were overblown, or made by locals with higher standards for a course that they're regulars at. Yes, there are some dead patches in fairways, and the greens can roll inconsistent , but overall I enjoyed the layout and scenery of the Links course. Staff was friendly and helpful, overall layout was open with some challenging holes, and pace of play was fine. A few tee boxes were a little tough to get the tee deep enough in the ground, but a little elbow grease was enough to get it through the dirt/clay. Greens probably need some work, some were dry and fast while others were soft and slower.

Started as a single and got paired with a duo, finished in 4.25hrs (7:45 tee) but would've been faster if not for the Club Pro in front of my 3some who opted to play 2-3 balls for the front 9.

Coming from Orlando, FL I can say there aren't too many local courses that offer the combination of well kept, challenging, and picture-esque for the same $80ish price point. Would love to play here again if I find myself in Phoenix again in the future. If you're from out of town and can grab a tee time before 8am on a weekday then I'd say this is the perfect spot if you only plan on playing 1 round in Phoenix.

Below Biltmore standard

For supposedly a really nice course, the fairways were terrible. Basically, I had no lie in a fair way that had a reasonable amount of grass under it either it was dirt or extremely thin under developed grass. It felt like playing at a cheap public course.

Course status not provided

I’ve played the Links course many times and looked forward to this round. Unfortunately, the fairways had been punched and had a lot of bare spots. Additionally, the greens had a layer of sand the made putting a challenge. Had GolfNow advertised the actual course condition I would have played the Estates course instead.

The Links course has more water hazards and slope than the Estates course. Beautiful views and the course is well maintained.

Needs some work!

Many of the ball washers had no towels so that is useless...one of the greens was patched with sodded areas....tee boxes pretty beat up.....overall I would give the course a 5/10.....would not take much to get it up to snuff but it looks like they are putting all the cash into the redone Estates course..
