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 pace of play

Tee times are booked every 6 minutes so the pace is very slow. 4 hours to finish 15 holes when darkness set in and we were advised the cart was to be back to the clubhouse by 5:45. Fairways are lush and the greens are very challenging. Played on a Monday holiday where pace was slow and no Marshall’s were to be seen. We played the links course and hole ten was very difficult to find.Local walkers directed us to the tenth. Many times there were people walking dogs on the cart paths further causing slower pace of play

Nice course

Great location close to downtown Phoenix. Course conditions were good and the staff are friendly. Easy to get a tee time.

Course is not at same level as some of the higher end courses but priced accordingly. We finished 3:20 but were first out so not sure about pace.

Arizona builtmore links

The leader of the course was very nice it is a pretty course the tea boxes were in terrible shape is the fairways though and the bunkers were all really nice would I recommend this course again to a friend yes if they don’t mind the poor conditions of the tea boxes the greens were a little bit slower but I think it’s the type of grass that was on them but they were in very nice shape

Links Course

The links course is always a good time. Plenty of holes to Challenge you. Be ready out of the gate as #2, Par 5 is over water from the tee. Back 9 has amazing views.

Course is mismanaged.

Course was completely over booked. Did not start till well after 15 mins past the original tee time. Was not even able to finish the 18 holes booked.

Disappointed!

The course condition was bad. Its my first time to play there and for the price I've paid, i was expecting something that would wow me... yes, it did... "wow" what the Fudge!!! Im fairness, the staff are very nice and friendly... course condition expecially the greens is a disappointment. I just feel like the price and the quality of the course doesn't equate ... i felt like it's comparable to a municipal golf course! Just my opinion from my experience... but ofcourse, the people you meet, the starter/marshall and the rest of the staff and very friendly! Hats off in that category!

Not What I Expected

This course was in average to poor condition so I was a little disappointed after being told it was in good condition. The course has a fair layout on the front nine however the back nine is a bit more interesting and the views are great. I would recommend playing this course but only if the conditions are favorable otherwise you should play elsewhere.

A tale of two nines

Front side is not in great shape, particularly the greens. Back nine is much more interesting and in much better condition.

Parking is very tough, especially with a tournament going on.

Play was slow and did not see any marshals on the course.

Staff is friendly.

Horrible greens

I played today for the first time expecting for the price I paid I was going to played a decent golf course, but unfortunately it was totally the opposite. Green were slow, bumpy, and very bad shape. I read some of the review from two months ago and I realized this is not new. You can play many golf course in The Valley for lesser price and in much better conditions.

Also, when we arrived we were approached by the person in charge to retrieve our bags, after that it seems that we were not there. We had to fill with ice our own cooler, and had to ask for direction where to go because nobody was paying attention.

Of course after we finished the round was the only time someone approached us.

I do not recommend this place to anybody, and certainly will be very difficult for me to play here again.

I regret that I did not read the review before I went.

Greens in Terrible Shape

I understand it is the middle of the summer, but with it being the Biltmore I expect the greens and course to be in better shape. The greens were weedy and really bumpy. The course itself is a good layout, so hopefully it will be in better condition if I play it again. Unfortunately for them there are a ton of choices here in the Valley, so I won’t be back soon. Not worth the price. There are a dozen courses I can think of that are half the price and better maintained.
