Rio Pinar Golf

Course was in good shape except some tee boxes the back nine was slow because of some people not knowing course etiquette

Slow play on the front nine but it picked up on the back nine

First played this course 2 years ago and was very disappointed. Gave it another try as they are under new management and WOW! Amazing job turning it around!

Front nine was slow but the back nine was pretty good

The staff and amenities are incredible. We traveled to Orlando just to play golf and enjoy the weather. The food, drinks, clubhouse, and hospitality are “top shelf.” The course layout is very nice though challenging, but the grass was sparse and we had to hit off sand fairways, basically.

After playing golf in Orlando for the last 30 years and more recently put off by some bad reviews, we decided to bite the bullet and play at Rio Pinar .

What an absolutely wonderful day we had

From start to finish everyone gave us a warm welcome, couldn’t be more helpful, and most of all appreciated the custom .

The course is still being worked on but the greens were good , tees a little scruffy in areas, and the fairways were good with just a few spots that are under repair.

The new clubhouse is great after golf and the service exemplary.

A great day out

My wife and I are average golfers and do not like to pay the Resort Golf Prices. During our stay in Orlando we drove out to Rio Pinar after reading about its history and some of the recent reviews. Large Range with a reasonable price for a bag of balls. Golf Carts with GPS on display were great. Tee Boxes we fine for the most part. Fairways were good and we were always hitting from grass. Ample sand available in bottles to fill your divots. Greens were small. They are not cut super short so they are on the slower side with for us is easier putting than super fast greens. The surroundings are super quiet. We had an awesome afternoon and would definitely go back.

I don't advise playing this course on a Tuesday afternoon. We paid for a full round, and nobody was behind us thru 7 holes, and we kept pace with the two-some in front of us.

When we got to 8, we were told to move to the back 9 to make way for the scramble crowd.

Just saying we paid for 18, and weren't able to get it in as a result.

Sorry guys, but if you are going to boot me and my buddy off the front 9, you're gonna hear about it later.

I’ve played this course a couple of times, and I enjoy it really much, it’s for all types of golfers. Fast greens, but not super firm, I think this is the only area to work on. Super friendly staff in the shop, great starter, good training areas (putting, chipping) with improvement in progress on the range (second thing to improve). I think it’s a really good course and gives great value for what you pay.

Hidden gem,this up and coming course has all the right things going. Friendly attentive staff. Service was quick and fast. Other golfers using this course played right tempo. Never held up play. Golf cart mobile beer cart was there when we need it. Like to see the message system on the carts actual work. Green and tee box had minor debris (windy day). Worth time and effort to play here.

Loved the old school feel. Especially loved the greens. Which we're running very nicely and seems like they may have been rolled recently. Beautiful place.

The starter was very unfriendly. The course is just rough, not flush at all.
