The Biltmore is an old classic course and hotel property, just west of Coconut Grove, between Bird and Coral Way, near southwest Miami, 15 minutes from downtown, or the airport. It's an old Donald Ross design from the 1920's that's been completely restored, 6800 yards, par 71, well conditioned, a little on the expensive side. Very forgiving layout, parkland style, but not heavy trees, allowing you a clear shot, but at least can punch out. Water in play on 1/3 of the holes, moderately bunkered, small to mid-sized greens, and housing bordering the perimeters of the course. Convenient to town, nice to play an old original in good shape.

Played here yesterday, the course was in great shape, and some nice updates done to several holes in a fairly recent redesign old Donald Ross course, as it had gotten pretty rough, but trust me it was nicely renovated and in great hands now with the current management. Very courteous staff and food service not to be missed! Upon arrival, the driving range mats and token operated range ball machine make it seem sort of rinky dink, but the course quickly grabs your interest and full attention. I didn't have the time, but I hear the hotel is not to be missed!
