Good Beginners Course!
Been taking my 14yr old son here to play a couple of times now, we enjoy the easy layout of course, hard to lose balls here ( unless water hazard or out of course). Our first time there, greens were hard and fast, fairways well all dried up hardly no green color, we came back to course after several weeks and course got better due to the rain we had. But, in most cases that we played here, course staff not so cool- first time, asked us to stop playing due to the sprinklers were being turn on, plenty of daylight left, other times asked us to bring cart in by 7pm, no other city course we played have done this only here! so you are left to finish course walking.
Rough condition
Course a lot greener due to heavy rains than a few weeks ago when it was browning out terribly. Greens however are horrible and ragged. Stimping at about 6 and this is not due to spiking but normal condition. If you can get out cheap its still worth it since its a fun course with lots of shade trees for the heat.
El Rio is awesome
I play here at least 2 or 3 times a week and every time it's great, the staff is awesome and no matter what is needed they help you out right there and fast.
Great Course
The staff are always friendly, the price is affordable and the course is taken care of.
Fun Golf
El Rio is a fun old school layout.
I always enjoy playing there.
The fairways could be in better shape but I know it gets a lot of play and being a muni course they probably have very limited funds for maintenance. But the greens are always in great shape and fun to putt.
I will always play El Rio it’s too fun and you do not have to hit every shot perfectly or in the air to make good shots or to have a decent score.
GREAT COURSES
Great staff, good wide open Course and fun. Difficulty is fair, some holes easier than others but bunker placements are nice and all in all it's a great course and anybody should check it out.
This course was in great condition
My friends and I had a great experience playing this course. Tee boxes and greens were perfect. I will definitely be playing this course more often this summer.
Price was right
Surprised how little grass was on the fairways and greens although green, were very slow.
Fun Golf
First time playing El Rio
Very fun
As most Muni courses it gets a lot of play but the greens are very good and fair
The fairways are fine considering the traffic
Great value for the money
The pace of play can be slow but why be in a hurry when you are playing golf
Just a fun place to play
I will definitely go back
Horrible
Been playing golf for almost 50 years and by far, this course was in the worst condition I’ve ever played. They suck you in by advertising at the Tucson open used to be played there but that was long ago. Nothing but dirt and weeds. Be warned. Do not waste your time or your money.
