Rio Pinar Golf

First time playing course, teed off as a single ~3:30pm and finished ~6:30pm even with them sending off a twosome on in front of me on #10. This was an unheard of pace of play, not sure if a function of it being Monday, the rain in AM/early afternoon or the state of the course. Front 9 was definitely in poor shape as several reviews have mentioned, I thought the back was a little better despite some furry greens.

Adequate practice facilities and for purposes of just swinging solo practicing was great to play fast but with the inconsistencies of course not one to play against the buddies for too much money!

Tee boxes were beat up and greens were furry/patchy. Conditions have gotten worse since playing a couple months ago.

Loved playing this course. Lots of trees that were a challenge for some with us and the squirrels were a little too friendly but overall would certainly play this again.

Good course, but it and all of Florida need more rain.

I have seen this course on GolfNow often, but never made the trip. I am so glad that I did. What a hidden gem. I will certainly be back.

I was SO disappointed in this track! First I get there & the Assistant Professional was entirely rude, inadequate, & unprofessional!!

It was already a bad first impression… Terrible course maintenance & I could not even carry on. I asked for a refund, they gave me a “12 hole rain check”, which I probably will never ever use again.

Pros:

- Off Course Amenities

- History

- Practice Facility

Cons:

- Tee Boxes

- Fairways (ROCK HARD)

- Rough/Fairway 2nd Cut (Just sand, branches, roots, rock hard)

- Greens

The Head Professional should be ashamed & embarrassed to be called the “HP” of this course.

Course is in horrible shape. The greens had a lot of patches of grass in between bare spots. The pictures advertising this course was a great catfish job…

$75 w/tax and the course is in bad shape. I love the history of this course, but not worth the price. Fairways and tee boxes are like a cow pasture and the greens super bumpy and weedy. I won't be going back soon 😞.

This course is not in good shape, GolfNow adjust your ratings.

Greens are bumpy and are beat up, fairways are ok but lots of bare spots (no grass),. Even the range is in poor condition. They need to do better, at these prices there are better options.

Overall the course is in great shape, Some greens are dryer then others but rainy season will help, 8/10 would play again

This course was once a PBA stop but today it is worn out. The greens are bad, fairway with a lot of leaves on so sometimes it was hard to find a wihte ball. Switched to orange one.

Bunkers were hard and ties in bad shape. It is sad to see this course gone like this.

Great staff. Starter is the best. Always friendly and funny! He matched me up with 3 pleasant fellas. If and when it rains conditions will be 5 star. Great layout. I don't think there's a hole I don't like. Greens are in good shape. Run true. Teeblox need a little work, but they'll come around when it rains. I'll be back.

The course is super dry and there is too much sand vs grass. Greens are in rough shape

They book tee times way too close together which causes stack up during play. Especially for the price here, I’d expect better pace. Greens were also in pretty bad condition.

Great layout of the course, wish the fairways and greens were taken care of a little better
