Great day for golf!

This is the Biltmore! Great service and great conditions. We played the Estates Course and the pace of play was great never waited or felt rushed. I wanted to call out Matt and Frank for great service.

THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME I EVER PLAY HERE - VERY SLOW PLAY & no water to drink on the course

This was my second time playing this course. The first time was extremely slow (5 hours 20 minutes). I decided to give it a second try and this was barely any better (5 hours). Additionally, it was 110 degrees outside. The ranger at the first tee told us to be sure to drink plenty of water. Well, that proved extremely challenging as none of the holes had water in the orange coolers (stationed at the tees) starting midway through the front nine. I was getting dehydrated and starting to feel a little light headed. I finally used the cart to request player assistance. The ranger told me there would be a water filling station on the 15th hole where there was a bathroom (which was the next hole). This will be the last time I play at the Biltmore.

Looks Easy but is Really Challenging

First time here. The staff is the nicest ever. Very helpful and accommodating. Teed off early and it was a 3 hour round (twosome.) On paper, course looks simple: straight and not very long. In practice: miss a green and pay the price. Moguls, deep bunkers and thick rough will bite you. I could see that a little local knowledge would really help here. Conditions weren't optimal, but it is Arizona in the summer. It hit 110° today so... The greens were in pretty rough shape. Bumpy and lots of bare spots. Still was a very enjoyable day and the staff made up for some of the course deficiencies. I'd go back, but soon. Looks like a number of new trees are planted and when they grow up it will make this course much harder.

playable course that needs some TLC

Not a difficult course to play with straight fairways and opportunities to score. The greens were fast but had bare grass-free barren areas on pretty much every hole. The Tee-boxes need some levelling (uneven/sloping). Easy to recover your ball if you hit wayward shots. I was expecting a better maintained course for a resort in Phoenix.

Easy playable course with open fairways

Wide fairways and no real hazards to speak off. Easy to find your ball even with hooks or slices. Tee boxes need attention and greens need grass. For a resort course (open to the public), these improvements are a must. Several greens had bare spots and the tee boxes were uneven.

Hard to beat for money

Went and played the Links course at The Biltmore and I was impressed. Staff in pro shop was incredibly cordial and nice. Not happy though with the charge of $40 for my wife to ride around but thats the way it goes. The lady in the golf shop even allowed us to go out earlier thsn our tee time was scheduled so that was great.

The course, while the fairways were a little brown, it wasn't horrific but its to be expected at this time of year. But the greens, oh man were they ideal, about average speed but condition wise, awesome for this time of year.

All in all a great day and my buddy and I got done in 2 hours and 45 minutes. Would highly recommend playing here for the price we paid.

Brutally Slow Play

Overall course layout was excellent. Unfortunately that was overshadowed by the 5 hours and 20 minutes pace of play, bunkers that were basically dirt and no sand and fairways that had many spots with no grass.

Staff not welcoming

I arrived to check in and the blonde female behind the counter , definitely had a bad attitude and didn't even say hi. Conversation was short and border line unpleasant. Outside staff was a little better but not much . Went to the coffee shop and the woman behind the counter never greeted me, she was wearing all black and had a head scarf on . She went about filling things and totally ignored me . After 10 minutes of this , I asked her if the coffee shop was open and she finally came over to help me . She had a verypoor attitude , almost like she didn't want to be there .

As for the course , lot of brown areas and tee boxes were not great but overall , it was playable. Nothing to right home about . On a bright note , the starter had a great personality and was super friendly . Older man , short and actually funny . Would I play it again, probably but I would look elsewhere first .

Dry

To many dead spots, for being a resort course. Spend money on the course like you did on the pro shop and restaurant..

Course was a little beat up

I played this links course with a friend of mine on Memorial Day and we got a great deal for only $75. Pay the play was pretty decent. No marshals were out, but the CART girl was always there when we needed something but the condition of the greens was very inconsistent. Some of them were just dirt and burned out. Others were OK. I’ve definitely seen the course in better shape than this.
