Greens had some bare spots

Overall I gave this a 4 star because some of the greens had some bare or rough areas about 12 inches in diameter in various locations on the greens. Other that that the course was well maintained and in good condition. We were a twosome following a twosome so pace of play was great. I found the sand traps a few times and appreciated the sand was in good shape and playable like it should be.

Disappointed

I have heard about the “wonderful Biltmore” for the last 4 years, and being a native naturally I thought I’d give it a shot and see what the hype is all about. Typically when I am paying upwards of $100 for a round I expect to have good course conditions, especially greens. I know they have course renovations going on, my disappointment didn’t come from the construction, it came from the courses absolutely terrible care of the greens. Half of them had dirt patches scattered across them. The remaining greens were riddle with crab grass or grass that was so long it made short game impossible and unpredictable from green to green.

This is a $50 course. With the vast array of other courses in much better condition I wouldn’t waist your money by playing here.

Timing the Monsoon Season

We had a great time, however, the course had experienced a violent thunder and hail storm the night before. The course is under renovation, so there is no putting green or any practice facilities. We experienced casual water several dozen yards across the fairway in low lying areas of the course. This was inconvenient as was the fact that we were limited to the cart path due to the soggy conditions. Otherwise, it was a nice day for playing. The course wasn't crowded and the food at the Adobe restaurant was very good. I dropped my phone on the 10th green and the players behind me retrieved it and gave it to the cart girl and it was summarily brought to me by the roving ranger. I was grateful for the service and the consideration of the players I've played this course before, and I would do so again, but probably at a different time of year.

Biltmore Built Bad☹️

The links course is in terrible shape for this nostalgic course that was once an Icon connected to the famous hotel with the same namesake. Front nine is terrible shape - greens are garbage. No driving range or putting range for starters. Front nine greens need major work. Also needs new ball washers, tee boxes, flags, etc. The links course reminded of a bad muni. This place is under construction in a major way. Avoid until renovations are complete in November. The other course is also under renovation till November. Such a disappointment!😖😖😖😖😖😖

Not a $75 round golf course

I knew about construction and no driving range before booking. Staff was extremely nice but course just not in good enough shape to warrant the price, . Burnt out greens okay fairways, $30 round no more

Up the watering

I am usually a big fan of the links course. It’s challenging but fair. But right now it is in the worst shape I’ve ever seen it in. I know it’s summer and it’s hot but plenty of other courses can ensure green fairways and greens. Hope they get it back into shape soon.

The links

As usual, the course did not disappoint. The ongoing construction was not a problem and did not interfere with the pace of play
