Rio Hondo Golf Club

I enjoyed a lot at this course. Beautiful and nice.

The course was great for trying for birdies as it there were no uphills and lots of flat and ground.

It was overall good , everything even weather was not to hot nice breeze

I pay for online, but they still ask the cart fee again

Great course. Only problem is balls do go everywhere lol because it is narrow. People are very nice. Expect driver every whole if playing blues.

It was our first time playing this course. We’ll definitely be playing here more often.

This was my first time playing here. I initially thought it was going to be another Los Amigos (don’t ever waste your time playing there). The course is in fantastic shape and the greens were well taken care of. Yes, you’ll run into your occasional hackers…just play past them (it’s okay, you were once new to golf yourself). Pace of play for a Saturday was not bad at all. I’d definitely play there again.

Pace of Play is a MAJOR issue here. Afternoon tee time took 5 hours. FIVE HOURS at a SHORT COURSE that is only 6300 yards and is FLAT with no hills!!! Embarrassing. And there are no marshals helping push everybody or help look for errant balls.

I used to think this was a decent place to play. But not any more. Not until they fix this pace of play issue, not until they educate the hacker public new to the game about etiquette and keeping up with the group in front.

Course needs work too. Some fairways are really thin, barely passable. Greens also need more rolling smoothing.

Course is only 6400 yards, guys. And it’s flat. Sure it has a couple likes and a couple of the Par 3s can be tricky. But a short course like this should take less than 4 hours. Period.

Golf courses and supers and industry minders need to rein this in. It’s getting beyond ridiculous. All they seem to care about is selling alcohol. We’re there to play golf. So take care of the pace!

Beware they have men’s tournaments being played at this course so be sure to call beforehand and make sure your tee time isn’t aligned with the men’s tourney.

The pro shop doesn’t inform the golfers about this so be prepared to play a 6+ hour round.

If you don’t mind then this course is for you!

Coming from La Crescenta it took about 50 minutes which was mostly traffic due to my 9:50 tee time. When I finished in about 4.5 hours, it took the same amount of time to get home which was all in traffic. My round made me forget the hassle getting there. I don’t mind driving an hour to play a round, but it is the traffic that takes away my eagerness to go back. You’re fortunate if you live close by.

Rio Hondo is a fun course in the LA area that generally has decent greens. Sadly, a tournament was before us, and we teed off about 40 minutes after our scheduled tee time. A group of golfers betting in front of us played very slowly.
