Rio Colorado Golf Course

My daughter played Rio Colorado Golf Course on both Monday and Tuesday, and we had a wonderful experience each day. The course was in great condition, and everyone on the staff was friendly and welcoming. She played the best round of her life while preparing for tryouts back home, which made the trip even more special. We also appreciated the golf professional taking a few minutes to share some valuable tips that will help her continue improving her game. We weren’t able to finish all 18 holes because we weren’t quite used to the Texas heat, but the front nine gave us a great experience. We look forward to coming back and playing the full course the next time we’re in town!

This is a great course to get away from the hustle and bustle. The fairways are hard right now but the greens are true and in great shape. There was only 1 green on the back nine that’s a little rough. The front nine is link style and the back nine is lined with trees and full of wildlife. We saw gators and deer on the back.

The course was fun and worth the money. I played a scramble with my girlfriend from the white tees and we shot a 1 over.

3 groups in front we’re 5’somes. The group behind us was a 5’sone. Very long day. We watched the group in front of us play EVERY shot! Higher price than I liked to pay. The next weekend we drove 1 hour away to pay $10 less with much better greens. And so much faster play. Got home in about a hour less than playing at Rio.

The course was closed due to planned maintenance and tee was still allowed to be booked. I drove an hour to course to play. I had booked only several days before playing. When I called course Manager said it was not their fault but they had requested refund. It was only $13 hot deal so money is not the point. If you live close the course is worth playing but if you don’t I would not waste your time!

Not bad for winter greens and fairways

Ground very hard, so ball flies and rolls

Way out for me so probably won’t play very often there

Just an enjoyable fun golf course. Overall condition is pretty decent. Greens rolled well, Fairways and Bunkers were also good. Seen Deer, and an Alligator, which I always enjoy. Good links style course

Not too busy for it being Sunday. Greens and course in general needs some major TLC. Staff could be a little more friendly given the condition of the course and amenities. Don’t bring a rider that has clubs or you will be charged an extra round , even if they don’t play! Overall 3.6/10.

These greens are all moved forward and have been this way for a long time after talking to other golfers. Putting on a “temporary” green that putts like being on a fairway made it very hard to play a good game. Layout was odd. Cart paths are broken up and you have to drive on the fairways, which can only further be worsening the condition of the course. Overall I would not want to play this course again

Honestly was really excited to play this course. We heard it was a lot like the open layout of Freeport. There are not cart paths all the way through, the layout is really confusing and the shape of the greens are really awful: greens were moved up about 40-50 yards from where they originally were (you could tell the old greens were still there). They were not cut down short enough so it was like putting on a fairway. And none of my app distances were right because of the changing of the greens so drastically. Definitely need some TLC to make this worth the cost of play.

Course is in terrible shape, actual greens have supposedly been being worked on for 2 months and not used but nothing looks like it has been done AT ALL, so your playing greens that's actually the fairway grass so good luck putting. They still wanna charge you full price to play and their full price still isn't worth it even when greens are fully open. Staff could be friendlier lady seems nice until u question them about the course and then it's like you don't have to play here when u call them out for charging full price when they don't have a putting green. I will drive the extra hour to play anywhere else. Course could be nice but it just seems they don't care to make it that way. Bunkers aren't even bunkers it's literally a hole in the ground full of grass, no sand at all!! Has potential but management needs to make major changes!!!

Played when they had to use temporary greens, but that did not change my opinion of this course. Great layout and very friendly and helpful staff. I recommend any golfer no matter what skill level to get out to Rio Colorado and enjoy this course.

The fairways were good but that’s about it. I the course layout was fun and challenging but once you got to the greens putting was pointless. Large patches of sand and dead grass it was very bumpy and impossible to putt. Was fun but for the price there is other courses I would rather play.

Great people good course they had not cut their fairways since a recent rain. Greens were very inconsistent. Had just been top dressed will play again, but will probably wait a couple of weeks.

Used Golf Pass “hot deal” and coupon to end up paying MORE than just showing up. Apparently Thursdays is their $20 day and unbeknownst to us they doubled us up with two large men and my GF can barely play. Then they couldn’t prove we paid. While trying to get a cell single to prove we paid with the app the old women came out to say we had paid. She could we were upset about being doubled up as there would be no way we could play along with the men we were doubled with. Then she started complaining to us that Golf Pass had taken their tees times and nothing she could do. On top of all that she told my GF she couldn't play without a collared shirt. She had on a nice cotton tee shirt with no graphics. Sign said no tank tops but wasn’t going to argue at that point. I’d NEVER go back there! We went down the road to a nice little 9 hole and paid cash. Palacios Golf that’s not on this stinking app that has NO recourse for this! By the time I got home it’s was 2 after 5pm and no way to text this app. My GF has JUST started playing and this was and unfortunate incident and tried telling her MOST places aren’t this ridiculous! We had just played Freeport on their “cheap” Tuesday’s for $20 and had a great experience.
