Rio Vista Golf Club
About
The Golf Club at Rio Vista is situated at the heart of northern California. With a scenic spot near the Sacramento River Delta, the course is even named after its scenic river view. The river delta meets rolling hills on this tough providing a unique setting equipped with distinctive water features. The skillfully crafted water holes are the trademarks of the design. The design mimics the natural lines carved by the river delta. The fairways are wide open but lengthy and generous greens can also be quite challenging as well. Rio Vista is a golf course that has appeal for players of all skill levels from novices to pros, whether it's the scenery or the diverse layout. Be careful on windy days though, the open course can be especially brutal.

Potential
Greens were great but that was all. Nice layout. Wish I could've played this course when it was new. Hopefully the ongoing repairs are not just a bandaid and this track returns to glory. Nice course means more revenue. Good luck!
Good greens, bad fairways.
The putting greens are all very nice, but the front 9 should be shut down. The fairways are awful. The back nine is in good shape and should be the only 9 open at this time.
Friendliest people around
As soon as I pulled in I was putting my shoes on a man who works there pulls up in a cart and gives it to me so I didn’t have to walk to the club house. The starter in the pro shop was very nice as well. Everyone was hanging out due to Labor Day. The coarse is in decent shape. People were waving from their houses. It felt very good to be around so many nice people. The only complaint is the 3 some playing from the tips. I was a single and pulled up behind them. Never asked if I wanted to play through!! I hope they see this and get some golf etiquette!!! Thanks again Rio vista!!!!!
Layout of the course
This layout is by far one of the best tracks that I have personally ever played on. This course had some tough times about 2 to 3 years ago but the new management there has totally turned it around completely! This new management team has dedicated themselves and are committed to keeping this course in good condition and I know in time it'll be an exceptional golf course and appearance as well as the beautiful layout of the course. I will always come back to this course and I definitely will recommend it to anyone who likes a course that is not completely flat but has elevation to it. The trilogy at Rio Vista is definitely a must play if you have never played it before.
Signature holes
First time playing RV. It has a cool and very playable layout, I was a particular fan of the par 3’s. The greens were fine and somewhat challenging, the tee boxes just okay and fairways were 50/50 (either nice green grass or dried mud). The rough and majority of the bunkers need a healthy dose of TLC. A proper clubhouse and beautiful water features help frame the greens on #9 & #18. The starter, Jim was very friendly. Pop was 4:20 for our foursome, not bad. $40 for a weekend 11am hot deal with cart, it was worth it.
Awesome course
Staff is just the best they’re always so friendly. Course is great! Love playing here.
great golf course
love this course, staff is always friendly. the greens are always kept up. fairways are getting worked on so it'll be nice soon.
A very nice day for golfing
This course conditions had been improved compared with previous months ago. The fairways were much better now. The were so many sand bunkers and water hazards in place. This course is pretty much challenging.
Course in tough condition
The course layout is unique, the staff was friendly but the course itself was in such poor condition. Dead patches on fairways, standing water on fairways, huge weeds patches on fairways and barely any green groomed grass on fairways. The sand bunkers were pretty compacted and a couple bunkers did not have sand and were just full of weeds. To be completely fair the tee boxes and greens were actually in good condition.
Surprised and Disappointed
Trilogy I always thought had a good product. The course conditions was possibly the worst I ever experienced. I played only four holes. I would not play this course again if it was free. Their webpage also is miss leading, they indicated there was a driving range which was removed years ago.
Once nice course, not anymore
This used to be a nice course but not anymore. Fairways are in terrible shape, bunkers are hard and most are wet. Greens are very furry. It will be a long time before I play there again
On the mend
This track has seen better days but I hear it's on the mend. Fairways bad but greens were great!
Interesting Course
The layout of this course is very interesting! There are holes that are very challenging and some , not so much! Fairways in horrible condition. Greens are kept! Tee boxes need some love! It will be awhile before returning here!
Course could be beautiful
This could be the nicest course around but it’s not kept up well enough. The fairways are dry and don’t get watered enough, same with the rough. Other parts don’t get mowed enough. Greens are perfect tho.
