Rio Pinar Golf

Played 26, first 18 was a little slow, last 9 was more my speed. Greens were in pretty good shape, better than North Shore 2 days earlier. Good bit of construction on the range. Great local course.

I first played this course a year ago and it needed a lot of work. A few of the greens back then were in abominable condition. Now the greens are looking good, and the course overall is much improved. There were maintenance teams working on many of the holes while we played, and the new ownership definitely wants to make the course attractive and to keep it well maintained. The improvements to the driving range need a few more weeks and then it will have tracking capabilities. Greens fees are a little stiff now, but sadly in line with other courses.

Course is coming along and conditions are improving. They need to either quit overbooking tee times or get more carts. This is the second time in two weeks that I have had to wait more than 15 min for a cart, making me late to the first tee. Following this the starter told us that we should show up to the first tee on time, which almost sent me over the edge. Especially since I showed up to the course well over an hour before my tee time and had to wait an extended period of time to just get a cart.

Additionally, my cart died. When I tried getting another at the turn I was told that there were no more carts.

For the amount of money they are charging, this needs to be fixed ASAP. Unacceptable.

Golf course is really nice. $45 to $50 per round would be a better price for a round. Clubhouse staff are super nice and professional. $6 for a draft beer is beyond ridiculous, won’t be back to the clubhouse for sure.

The course held prestigious events but it suffered from a lack of maintenance and according to members we played with became run down. New investment in the clubhouse and course is ongoing.

It was in decent condition with greens, tees and bunkers all good. Fairways were a little patchy in places and parts of the course were a little wet.

Overall it was enjoyable.

Cool weather to start the round with the sun and warmer weather by the turn. Course was a little wet and we played lift clean and place. altogether the round was better than good and will come back again.

Started out cool but eventually warmed up.

Pace of play was slow on the front nine but picked up on the back nine

Cool in the morning but warmer later. Used my points to play for free.would like more benefits like that and would play more often

They have spent a ton of money on clubhouse and looks amazing. They are now working on the course. Greens are GREAT!!! Fairways are ok little sparse here and ther. Tee boxes have some new grass going in. Looks like doing a lot of work to bunkers. Good value for the money and greens were great which for me is most important!

Rio is a fantastic layout and nothing like it was a couple years ago. The greens are fast and roll very pure, fairways and tee boxes are lush and the new driving range is spectacular. I will definitely be back and looking forward to eating at the new restaurant again also! Great service all around love what they’ve done with the place.
