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.

Things to improve.

I enjoyed the golf course. The greens were firm and fast. The rough was way too long to the point that you could easily lose a ball. The speed of play was slow as it took 5 hours to play.

The bar serving the patio and outside area could to a lot better job. I was sitting on the patio for 15 minutes and when a server finally made it to the patio she went to a table of ladies that had just sat down and took their orders and completly ignored me.

Super tight - staff not friendly

The course is super tight with houses on every hole. Not enjoyable at all. I left a Bluetooth speaker in the cart and when I went back 30 mins later it was gone.

Not a Links Course

If you like playing between residential and commercial developments on golf holes that have virtually no connection then this is the course for you. The warning that you are responsible for any damages to adjacent properties ramps up the anxiety as the opportunity to have a wayward shot take out a window or a BBQ exists on most of the holes. If you like this course then you will love Starfire.

Awful Pace of Play and scheduled tee times

The pace of play was terrible.. they allowed 2 kids to go out in front of our group walking the course and not just them slow it was the entire course.

There was at one point 3 groups behind us waiting to tee off because of these kids.

The course itself was in beautiful condition and the layout was great, but I would never play here again.

Additionally, the website and Golf Now app said that the driving range was opened after Labor Day. We arrived an hour early to warm up and it was closed, and there was no pitch or putt to practice before the round.

Would not recommend this course ever to anyone.

Fallen from former glory

I used to love The Links course at AZ Biltmore and was back on it for the first time in years yesterday. To say the course is in rough condition would put it kindly. I’ve never seen fairway grass grafted onto greens as a repair and we saw this on no less than 4 greens, including my favorite hole 15. One approach shot which landed short of the green actually had a dirt splash as the shot landed before rolling up on the green - never seen that before!

We had the course to ourselves and now I know why. I’m sorry to say , but wait til they fix it.

Not worth the time

Course is in horrible shape, at least 5 greens have temporary sod on them(looks like they picked it up at Home Depot) Fairways have major bare spots . Overall not worth the time or the money

Great Course But Only in Fair Shape

An excellent links style course with a flat first nine with 3 water holes and a very challenging second nine with extensive tee or green elevations. The elevated tee box at the Par-3 15th hole offers a stunning view of the valley as well as a challenging 165 Yd shot that is much longer than it looks! Still some bare spots in the fairways, but mostly OK. Some of the greens were being worked on to improve the grass before the winter season therefore parts of some of the greens are not puttable right now. I always bring my out-of-town guests here to play

Nearly unplayable greens….

Half of the greens are grounds under repair, not what you expect for a resort course in the most expensive zip code in phoenix…tee boxes can be rough. Cart girls and staff are amazing, though. Fun layout.

Fun par 3's

Greens were slow and the course had some brown spots but was overall nice. The new bar & grill is pretty sweet.

Not A Good Vlue For the Money

Although the scenery is great the course was in poor condition with 4 of the greens with large sections of just burnt brown grass and many of the fairways with weeds where grass should be. I know it is summer but a little water would be a good idea. Biltmore Links is my favorite local course but I can't recommend it based on the conditions and the overpricing right now.
