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.

Great Value, fast pace, very enjoyable.

The course was in very good condition, the greens were fast and very nicely maintained. The fairways were a little sparse in spots, almost like they didn't put down enough seed when they overseeded. That is what kept this from being 5 stars. The pace of play was excellent, we play in just a shade over 4 hours, only waited on a couple of the par 3's and that wait was not long at all. My only other gripe would be the severe slope of the 13th and 17th fairways, especially the 17th. The fairway is so slanted and the grass is very sparse, so much so that a drive hit in the middle of the fairway will always roll down into the rough near the cart paths. This is a poor design and very unfair. Overall though, the Links course is one of my favorites in the Valley.

Staff was Great as always - fairways need work

Fairways need work - you couldn't make a divot if you had a pick and shoval. Grass so thin it looked like it was painted on. Greens were in good shape but, I think you must be making the holes smaller. :)

Challenging course with very different nines

This par 71 layout plays along fiarways that wind between high end homes in the Biltmore area of Phoenix. The course plays tight with narrow fairways, difficult bunkering on many holes and fast greens. It also has numerous water hazards, some of which are hidden to the eye from the tees and second shots. The front 9 is quite flat while the back 9 plays through rolling hills and much of it plays uphill with some severe doglegs requiring good placement of tee shots to have a shot to the green. Would not recommend for beginners. The rack rate is pricey for the type of course but I got a great deal (residence rate-twillight)

First times the charm

this was our first time playing at the biltmore. The course was in great condition and the staff very helpful and friendly. We played the Links side and while some of the tee boxes were close to the previous greens or were a long drive down mixed condition paths, the course was scenic, challenging, while still forgiving. It played well for all the skill levels in our group.

Good variety of holes and scennary. Greens good be a little more accepting

Links at Biltmore offers a friendly staff, as varied a set of holes of any course in valley. You will use every club in your bag. Greens are smooth and accurate with many subtle breaks, could be more accepting of high short irons. Pace of play was very good for a Sunday. Golf shop is well stocked and nice patio rstuarant for meal-just be wary of wild shots into patio.

The links is a beautiful course.

hit from the black tees if you think you can hit far, otherwise the white tees. also when you get to the 15th hole. a 165 yard par 3 with elevated tees, hit this one from the top tees. it will make your experience alot more fun. the green were smooth and quick even in the morning time. and just hit it in the fairway and you'll do just fine....heh-heh.!

The course is excellent

I have played a lot of links courses in the last 5 yrs, but this course is awesome, I can't wait to play it again. I love the #12 hole over the water. The greens were excellent. I would recomend it to all my golfing buddies.

Enjoyable golf, top-notch service

The Adobe course - my first preference- was closed for overseeing, and looking at the scorecard for the Links course (CR 67.0 / slope 116 from the regular tees), I almost bailed. Now, I'm very glad I didn't. Not a test for tour pros, it's true, but for us bogey golfers it provided plenty of shotmaking interest and challenge without being punitive. Smallish, well-designed green complexes and good course condition for this time of year. Lots of good visuals, especially of Squaw Peak with a genuine photo op from the 15th tee. Very professional, warm service without being over the top. Very tasty food offerings in the Adobe Cafe and bar adjoining the pro shop.

Best Deal That Day!

I prefer so many other Phoenix area courses over the Biltmore, but with so many courses either closed for overseeding or open with Cart Path only and back to being close to $100 the Biltmore Links pre-overseed for $35 was a no-brainer.

I enjoy the variety of holes. The Links Course meanders through the Biltmore area with only 10 and 18 next to each other. The greens have lots of grain making the break and speed a challenge to read without too much visible break. The bunkers are my least favorite part of this course. They don't have sand. They have groomed loose dirt that sometimes crunched under my shoes. Splashing a ball out of them was very difficult. I did better treating them like regular dirt.

I find the staff friendly but they have a big sign about no longer allowing athletic shorts and pants. I always wear regular looking golf shorts so I'm not sure what kind of athletic shorts and pants they now have problems with.

The Biltmore Links is an affordable change of pace. It is a challenge with it's well protected greens.

Hidden costs

I didn't appreciate the $19.92 reservation fee through Golf Now. This did not show up until I clicked make reservation. Hidden costs will make me not play at the Biltmore again.

Great course, needs work on course food/bev options

Very limited food offered at course food kiosk. Great hot dogs if you're into that kind of thing. We asked for limes with our gin and tonics and she said "everyone asks for that" but yet, no limes. Lots of room for improvement there. Beautiful course in great condition and the greens were amazing...allowing for several 20'+ putts.
