Great course !!

Course in great condition, need rain , but they are watering.

It’s a fantastic feeling to play on a course that all of the ole time greats have played. Highly recommend this course. This is a big boy course with many challenges.

Back Nine Start?

Not sure what was going on but they started our twosome on the back at 2:30. At the turn, it appeared there was a backup because one foresome jumped in to start on #1?! All in all OK we still finished in just under 4 hours.

Only saw the "Cooler Cart" once & the restaurant was closed.

Greens are horrible!

This course needs much attention and much rain! Definitely not a 4 Star. Greens are very unpredictable. Tough to get my golf groove going due to poor pace of play!

Just Ok

I enjoy playing Rio, but lately I can't justify paying 50 (afternoon price ) with the way the greens are. Greens are in rough shape/kitchen has limited hours. Overall its a decent course to play, but not with what they are charging

Excellent staff but course needs some attention

We enjoyed our day of golf at Rio Pinar. The staff, from the pro shop to the starter and from the chef to the bartender were very friendly, courteous and professional.

The course needs some attention due to the lack of rain.

Good day

Had a good day playing with the boys but course not great. ALOT of tee boxes were in terrible shape and trying to find grass in the fairway was a challenge. Still can have a good day depending on who you're playing with.
