Fairways
The fairways are in pretty bad shape. More dirt than grass. Greens were nice and traps were well kept. Enjoyed the round.
Rain has helped
Much better than the last time I played. Greens were a bit slow but 100% grass was appreciated. Fairways were also better except some large areas that were being worked on. Bunkers still. Need more sand . T boxes need some work. But it was a fun day. This course could really be special with all its history.
No Indoor seating
No grill and no indoor seating to cool off and grab a drink and a snack. Clubhouse is needed.
Good
Course was empty and open on a late Thursday morning, so I was able to re-hit some shots and play with two balls on some holes. Greens were fast with lots of green side bunkers. Fringes and fairways had dead grass, and some even had exposed dirt.
SHAME
El Rio is my favorite muni course.. but now I don't know if will stay that way. last time I played the greens were a mess & now the fairways are horrible.
Fairways have no grass, overwatered mud, had to hope to hit to the rough for any grass to hit off of if lucky Greens ok, a little slow. Only bright spot was the cart girl, bar girl, and starter. They fortunately had great attitudes.
It’s worth $28 bucks but no a penny more
Tee boxes and fairways have no grass. Greens were very slow. Beverage cart gal wanted to spend more time at the starter area than on the course. Hard to believe the city spent over $5,000,000 to redo this course and this is what u get.
Work
Lots of work being done on the course. Hopefully better in the future.
