The Biltmore has a nice layout with some interesting holes. Unfortunately they aerated the day of play and didn’t remove the excess sand from the greens. The crown of all the cups were days old and damaged. The fairways were in good shape as were the bunkers, but for me the greens make it break the experience.

The hotel was quieter than when I normally play here, which was nice. It can be a pain to get clubs in good time between valet and the cart yard, and want that seamless this time. I’m a fan of the course (Silver Fox) although I prefer the former layout and this was my first time playing during summer. As you’d expect the greens are a little slower and not as good shape as Dec/Jan when I would normally play. The course wasn’t that busy, which was nice for my wife and I to enjoy a casual round. My only gripe is that the bunkers are awful. There’s barely any sand is basically a penalty stroke to get in one. I’d still go back and play as it’s easy to play a quick round and the greens haven’t been aerated like other courses in the area.
