Love this course! Great views, well maintained and the hot dogs at the stand are the best in town - 50% of the reason I play here!!!

Horrible Pace of Play

After experiencing challenges last year we decided to give the course another chance. We teed off at 1:16 PM and finally stopped playing on hole 14 at 4:45 PM at that point in time there were three foursomes sitting on the Teebox waiting. The teetimes are two compressed for the skill level of the golfers for this course. In addition it is not in the greatest shape. Not worth $150/person!

Biltmore

This is such an awesome course in a beautiful and historic part of town. For the value the course isn’t in great shape and the pace of play is as bad as it gets. Really hope the Biltmore crew throws some money into it because it’s a great track and has so much potential.

Very over-priced muni!

The staff and pace of play were excellent, but this course is nothing but a municipal with resort pricing. Also, got there early enough for a good warm up only to find that the range was closed.

This clearly was not what we expected for the price!

TOO CLOSE

You need to have your head on a swivel playing here. The fairways parallel each other and there are players coming at you on both sides and constantly on your fairway hitting against you. There wasn't a starter so I had to ask at the desk when and where we should go.

Disappointed

It had been a while since I last played here and was surprised and disappointed with how the conditions had deteriorated. The carts were really dirty, the tee box’s were scarred and in some cases we were playing from bare dirt. The bunkers were thin and hard but the greens were in decent condition. I have played local muni’s that were in far better shape than this once proud resort course.

Dangerous conditions

Our party was hit into on three separate occasions. Twice via cross fire (ball hit into the wrong fareway) and once via a blatant “hit into”.

One ball missed our player by inches. We quit after 14 holes as we felt too dangerous to continue.

Overall the course was an interesting lay out and an enjoyable experience. I didn’t play well, not familiar with the the layout and the greens. Tee boxes were in really rough shape.

I would definitely play it again, hopefully with better results…. Haha

How do you spell OLD ?

How do you spell old and tired with an emphasis on OLD and TIRED. I felt I was playing on a course in 1950. Add to that tees that had little if any grass and traps so hard you could get out with a putter. I talked to the pro who admitted that he hadn't played the course is quite some time. Apparently the maintenance crew hadn't been there in quite some time either. .

Enjoyable Round

As mid handicap golfers, my friend & I found this course very enjoyable to play. Aesthetically pleasing and a wonderful layout.. I've played the Adobe course once before and found the Links course more challenging. The only complaints I have is that the tee boxes were mostly dirt and yhe sand traps could use new sand. Staff was friendly and lunch was great!
