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.

BAD EXPERIENCE

There were several issues that made this a bad experience. First the golf course did not have our tee time on file. This resulted in overbooking and difficulty at the front desk and over 30 minutes delay in getting off and slower play with quite a bit of waiting. The pros indicated that they were not notified by golfnow of the tee time reservation. Not sure who screwed up but it makes me hesitant to book through golfnow again. In fairness, I have not had this problem with golfnow in the past.

Great course

I was a little confused when I was pulling up. No big signs to point you in the right directions. Also confusing when trying to find the back 9 for the Links. Overall had a great time. The course is in great shape. First time playing the course. We had two foursomes in front of us that we're a little slow. Loved the 15th hole. It's great!!!!

Would play there again. Golf Now was $26.

Great play!

I play this course regularly and it's in as good of shape as I've seen it. Biltmore is not a high end golf experience but rather a much better than average course especially for the cost making it a great overall value. Can't beat the views of the luxury homes and mountain scenery which makes for a great round of golf.

Horrible greens

The greens were among the worst I have ever putted on- extremely slow and bumpy.
The course layout was very nice and fairways were pretty good.

Course not in good condition. Greens beat up. Water in coolers Luke warm on a 106 degree day. Pace of play very slow over 4 1/2 hours. Horrible experience for such a highly touted course!

Absolutely love the scenery on this course. Took two hours and ten minutes to play 18 as a single. Cheap rates and fast play in the summer make this my favorite course.

Great views but bad greens

The greens were newly aerated so they were very bumpy and we didn't know prior to playing. The course and views were great though!

Short, Easy & Fun

Links Course: It's a nice course to play. Remember to pay for range balls in the golf shop prior to driving over to the range. Additionally, the greens were just punched and sanded recently, so they are rough to putt on right now. Good course for beginner and intermediate players.

Biltmore's Downhill Slide to Sad

I have played the AZ Biltmore for 30 years. It was always a great course to get out and scoot around. Quality golf. But sad to say, the $35 green fees and $70 rental set was not worth the price of admission. The pro shop took our money and that was the last we saw of anyone. A course which takes a max 3hrs on a busy day was well past the 4hr mark. No rangers, hardly a beverage girl to be found. Groups were stacked upon group. Even for the meager amount of $35 the Biltmore is no longer a place to play. A SAD Day.

Links

back 9 of links course is one of my favorites in town. Took my brother in law and two of his colleagues out to play. Course was in good condition even if the greens were a little firmer than I'd like. Beer pricing is better than many of the courses I usually play overall a good experience for everyone. Also location if convenient food/drinks after the round.

Sunday Afternoon Golf

Had 3pm tee time, got to tee box when called and the 2:44 group was just teeing off. No starter, so the beginning was a little rough. Front 9 was good, back 9 was quite slow. Had a group of drunk 18 y/o behind us and hit into us twice. Course was in decent shape, nothing spectacular for a resort course. Good value and I would come back

Excellent course value

Whenever I can get a well priced tee time at the Biltmore Links course it goes to the top of my list. I especially like the links course because of the character of the course. It is comfortably long for my 64 year old game, and it enables me to use all of my clubs. I especially like the greens. They are fair and reward you for reaching them with putts that very rarely bounce off line. The greens are always smooth and consistent. This course is a treat to play.

Slow pace of play and no player assistant

Course is average. Back nine has more character than front nine. One hot dog stand for two courses. Could not wait in line between nines. This course has seen better days.

Links??? Need to rename

I have a condo just 5 blocks from the entrance but have never played at the Biltmore. My daughter played at GCU and practiced there but said the course was in bad shape. I played the back tees found it to be in above average condition with firm but consistent greens. The "Links" course in reality had water on 3 of the first 4 holes. The GPS only showed F M B, take a laser. I would recommend this facility as long as you keep the price below $110.00.

Enjoyable Round

This was my first time playing the course and I would definitely play again. Only complaint about the course would be the greens were very firm, otherwise course was in excellent condition.
