Rio Pinar Golf

This course is great, but today the greens were all messed up today. Play is ALWAYS slow here, so nothing new there. Putting green was slow, so like most courses, you expect that's how all greens are today. NOPE. Cut so short, only one ball spun back, and it was a backboard green. 14/18 pins were placed on a dome, or where there was only one spot you could be in to not roll 5-10 feet. First time experiencing the "greens keepers girl broke up with him today", and it was rough.

Played here on a GolfNow HotDeal. Staff was incredibly friendly, and the starter was fun. The facility is pretty sweet. Range balls do not come with the round, but is what it is. Having the trackman is cool, and the multiple putting greens really spreads the people out. Pace of play was average, I think my foursome played in 4 hours flat. Tee boxes were kinda chewed up, but the fairways were passable and the greens were fantastic. For the price + the time of year, it’s probably hard to find a better course in Orlando. Would 100% play here again.

The course is in good condition but the pace was super slow. I believe it was overbooked as they did not even have carts available. We had to wait until people were done with their round.

The course is in good shape. Staff is mainly great - friendly, knowledgeable and helpful - but the starter is a jerk. Really starts the round off on a sour note v

Good layout, great vacation course and great value.

Older style track-grabbed a Hot Deal and it was worth that pricepoint.

For the first time playing the course, I thought it was amazing!

You definitely have to think your way around the golf course yet everything is right in front of you! I really enjoyed my time there. I thought the greens were remarkably well and the course was in great condition!

I’m aware of the history of the course so it was fun to play and think of the players that have played there before so it gave me a sense of history and a greater appreciation for the game of golf if that’s what you’re looking for I would say go there!

Had an excellent experience at Rio Pinar Country Club. From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly (Mike D the starter was the man) and welcoming, which really set the tone for the day. The course itself was in mint condition—fairways were well kept, greens rolled true, and the overall layout was a pleasure to play. You can tell a lot of care goes into maintaining the course. I had a great time and would absolutely recommend Rio Pinar to anyone looking for a quality round of golf and great hospitality.

We were keeping pace the whole time, but the ranger was on us for no reason at all. It got annoying real quick and honestly ruined the experience. Course conditions were terrible too, fairways and greens were in rough shape. Not worth $70 a person and won’t be coming back.

whenever we are in Orlando we always try and play at Rio. The course layout is interesting and the greens are fast but true with lots of undulation. never boring!

wasn't quite sure which SI to use as the card showed different SI to the electronic card but we went off the card ones.

will always come back, great vfm.

If you’re looking for rude front-desk staff, no pace-of-play enforcement, and a round of golf that feels more chaotic than relaxing, this is the course for you.

There were no rangers on the course, groups stacked up everywhere, and tensions getting high to the point it felt like fights were about to break out. Completely unacceptable.

The owner showed zero respect for customers and instead of fixing the problems, tried to brush it off by offering a free drink at the bar. That doesn’t make up for poor management and a bad experience.

Plenty of better courses out there. I won’t be back.

Clean, reasonably priced, well maintained and challenging. Staff was friendly and informative.

Played here a year ago and still love it. The course is in excellent condition with GPS carts. Greens are fast but true. The entire club is very welcoming and the course has a good layout.

Somebody recommended to me that I go play there and Boy am I forever grateful they did!

First class all the way from the moment I walked into the moment I left, which included a meal, I enjoyed every moment I was there. What a great test of golf that golf courses is!

I brought two guest with me and as soon as we got in the car to go back home, we were looking to reschedule another round there!

I’m grateful to the staff and all the grounds crew who make this golf course such an enjoyable place to play!!!!

In general one of the best greens in the area, they need to improve on the tee boxes because they are not flat at all some of them , the food on the restaurant is one of the best , even though my order wasn’t that good my partner order smash burger really good .

Been playing this course for years and so awesome to see this property transform into a 5 star. Only thing I would encourage is to improve the bunker materials (sand). Greens and fairways are in excellent condition, keep your maintenance team! Outstanding! Can’t wait to get back.
