Average golf course.

The course itself was fine, very average, was not expecting more. It was a cool day, therefore not very crowded. Finished the round in just over three hours. Greens were just ok for the most part, some bare patches. What was a little annoying not being told about cart path only until the first tee, a extraordinary amount of goose poop everywhere for the first 6-7 holes, washroom code on hole 6 did not work and the gps was a little off for the cart not being on the cart path which caused the cart to slow to a slow walk. Overall if the course is in a rebuilding process, a little more attention to detail is required for the overall golf experience.

Perfect day

The Links course was fantastic! The staff was friendly, the pace of play was perfect and the course was well-kept. The golf shop is under construction so the off course amenities were limited but it looks like it will be beautiful.

Dismal

I guess with the Iowa caucus just ending we are expected to believe everything we are told.

So, this is what I will tell you and you can say it's "fake news"

I've played 'Adobe' a couple dozen times. The 'Estate' course is 'Adobe" with the exception of a couple hundred yards.

Biggest difference is it's in very rough shape, coupled with indifferent grounds crews saturating the tract.

Oh yeah... third world technology GPS that won't show you the hole layout but it will stop your cart if you pull off the path.

Arizona Biltmore has a long and respectable reputation. I am embarrassed by their misrepresentation of the 'improvements' over the 'Abode' course.

Take my review for what it's worth but you will never see me at a MAGA rally.

Poor experience.

Very poor condition - especially for the green fees. Terrific staff but there are MUCH better alternatives.

I’m a 9 handicap. Shot 79 so not upset about my score. Course conditions are “ratty”. Multiple tee boxes have no grass. Inadequate sand in the bunkers.

Staff outside of the pro shop were very apathetic. Inside the pro shop they were very good.

Very unlikely that I will return & note that I play over 150 rounds annually.

Tom should be embarrassed

Horrible conditions and an awful layout. Definitely not worth the listed green fees nor the discounted fees available via GolfNow/Teeoff

I thought the same thing, Tom Lehman should be embarrased. I decided to chalk it up to not enough space, but i agree with your review.

Happy New Year

I’ve lived in the valley for 50+ years. I’ve played this course since I moved here I’ve seen the course take no pride in upgrading the links course it’s been the same for the past 25 years. The addition of the new pro shop is nice, but does not add to the quality of play or course conditions and the people working in it on January 1, 2024 were extremely rude and in the old pro shop they were always rude, unsocial and felt like they were entitled to something other than serving guests. Cart services does a great job, but the overall course conditions have never been improved upon bunkers rebuilt, greens rebuilt, new ew tea boxes installed. However, the corporate greed continues in the green fees, continued to get absurd for an executive course that’s average at best. If it wasn’t for the local Phoenicians, who paid play this course around, especially in the summer, both courses would be bulldozed and townhomes built and that’s a fact. There is no discounts or other considerations given to the locals. There should be a local discount rate just like Torrey Pines does for the residence of San Diego.

Good value for the Flash deal

Overall it’s a links course with some nice signatures holes with views and a few that were just ok. The greens were really slow and some bare areas and the T boxes need some work along with bunkers with no sand. The fairways were in good shape though and rough was fair. The club house is non existent so forget about getting a cup of coffee etc. Final thought is that it was worth the flash deal price after that I would skip it.

Convenient!

I decided to play at the last minute and the proximity of Biltmore made it the obvious choice.

The staff was very friendly and the new dogs they are building looks great. I played the links course, which was serviceable but nothing to write home about and definitely overpriced for what it is.

Most of the greens are in pretty bad shape, tee boxes were hit or miss. All of the fairways were in great shape.

Nice little courser but there are much better values out there for the same quality.

Not worth the money

Disappointed to say the least. Course layout is awful. Too easy to get greens mixed up. Playing across other holes. No signage. People hitting at you from other fairways. Not worth the winter premium price. If you can get a hot deal it’s not a bad time but for $170 it’s not worth the price. Much better golf around for relatively same price around Scottsdale. Course is crammed in too small of an area. Greens have holes and rough patches. For the money you would expect much better. Construction everywhere. Tiny little halfway house right in the middle of a construction zone. Just too much to complain about for that price.
