maybe was great once

maybe at one point this was a great track....it has not been kept up. Tee boxes are terrible! I know it is called a "links" course....so leave the woods at home, because anything you hit can bounce into a pond/water....surface is so hard. Houses are so close to the course...too close!!! on a Par 3 we had to take the ball over a yard to get to the pin....just crazy. You can tell by all the yards that had to put up nets... bummer when you are buying a $2M+ home to be in Scottsdale. The course is overpriced for the conditions....but then again - just about everything in Scottsdale is!

All the staff were very friendly and attentive.

The course and it’s condition just did not meet my anticipations.

The sand traps were very inconsistent, often with mud or hard pan under a very thin layer of sand.

I have no desire to play this course again.

Terrible

Anyone that comes to the reviews, do not play here unless you have a solid 5.5-6 hours to spare. Course conditions are not terrible but not great. Rate of play is terrible and the ranger does nothing to help speed things up.

Paired with a woman

I golf to get a reprieve from the women in my life. Showed up to the course this morning brimming with enthusiasm. Come to the bag drop, no one was there to help or greet us. Go to the front desk, and they inform me that my brother in law and I will be playing with a single female golfer that will be walking (we were riding). I’m sorry - this is UNACCEPTABLE. The staff didn’t want to hear my complaints. Didn’t care. The course was very boring and not in great condition. Way over priced. Hit Silverado if you’re looking for a much better experience at the $150+ price point.

Not an imaginative layout

It was OK but not much of a challenge. Play was slow. A lot of straight putts.

Good Experience

Biltmore Adobe is a good course, not too hard. low slope. Had a good time with friends Cart gals were awesome. Service could be better at such a high end resort. Maybe the Links course is better???? This is the original course. No trouble but sand with lots of rocks.

Terrible food and beverage service

Over 18 holes and after 4 calls into the shop for bev cart we literally never saw one single server. On a 90+ degree day it’s quite miserable without replacing refreshments

You gotta play it once

Just because it's part of the historical Biltmore, you should play it once. The layout is fun and interesting. The fairways were in decent shape. The tee boxes were worn, probably due to many of the trees are so large now, they shade the tee boxes and the grass doesn't grow well. Greens are too tricky for a 21 index.
