Golf

Tee times start at 8:00 am

Golf in Phoenix has never looked better.

Rolling fairways and impeccable sportsmanship. Pristine lakes and lush beauty. The Arizona Biltmore Golf Club courses offer bold challenges and enjoyable play for the most discerning golfer.

The Estates Course

Arizona’s newest golf course, the Estates Course at the Arizona Biltmore Golf Club (formerly the Adobe Course), is now accepting tee time reservations for daily-fee play. Named after the iconic Biltmore neighborhood which surrounds the property, the Estates Course sits on the original site as the Club’s former Adobe Course. However, that’s where the similarities end.

Designed by the Lehman Design Group and Scottsdale resident and five-time PGA TOUR champion Tom Lehman, the completely new Estates Course features newly contoured fairways, new tee boxes and improved green complexes, as well as new sand and grass bunkers throughout. Crews have also planted over 400 new trees to add more visual appeal while helping to define fairways and playing corridors.
