Rio Vista Golf Club

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!

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.

We were paired up with 2 other golfers, but we had a great time. It looks like there is a bunch of holes, tee boxes, and bunkers under repair, likely due to all the rain we received this winter. But it was a great time.

the course was fun, lots of water. it definitely needs more yardage markers.

The course was fun but needs more yardage markers!

I had a great time, but the course continues to require improvement. This is the third time in two months that I played at the course and can see it getting better and better. I will go back this month for further evaluation.

Got a good deal and was pleasantly surprised.

Based on reviews past few years, was not expecting much but you can see how hard they are working to improve this course - greens were really good ( challenging and incredibly good conditions)

Sure, parts of the fairways had issues but overall very playable and fun.

The course needed a lot of work, and there was a tire marks and hokes and weeds on a lot of holes.

This was only my second time playing Rio Vista, the first time was two years ago and they have made massive improvements since then ! Most of the bunkers had sand and were well maintained, some bunkers were still unplayable, every green was in amazing shape although as others have said they are very slow, the fairways still have some bad sports but you can tell they are working on it, I would recommend playing here again if you haven’t in a while, for $41 on a Friday morning with a cart it’s hard to beat.

As always the Rio Vista course had plenty of wind to slow me down. It was not as bad as before pandemic. There were several potholes and sinkholes in the fairway that were quite rocking to drive the cart on. They were agonizing, even hurting my back. The wind picked up its velocity quite a bit. Pace of the play was great because of the wind, they’re just a few players on the course.

Brought my nephew Nolan and his fourteen year old son Bugsy to play the course. They love it and wish they could play it again before they leave next week!

Course was in decent shape.front nine has a couple holes with beat up fairways.back 9 was in good shape greens are coming in good but need a mow

Overall I would return

I played this course because it was a great deal on Teeoff.com at $21. Upon checking in the nice man told me that the course was being rehabilitated from a previous owner. Overall the couse was in good condition with 3 exceptions Greens were VERY slow maybe a 2-3 stimp , Fairway bunkers are filled with grass and the rough was way too long. I lost 4 balls in the open rough with decent drives. That's Very frustrating and all of the golfers I spoke with on the course had the same opinion.

A bit more rehab and I would try this course again

Overall, The course is cool, and supposedly it has undergone a lot of renovation, and restoration. Conditions were not ideal, but the hot deal of $22 was equitable.

Most fairways-8/10.

Rough was like-4/10.

Bunkers-4/10 (some were no sand and just weeds. others had been filled with sand. A for effort).

Teeing areas were nice-9/10.

Greens were beautiful but were very slow when we played. You had to hit it through the break to reach the hole-6/10.

Cool water features and hills and great layout 9/10.

Played the course in the middle of 2022 and conditions were horrible. Read a few reviews regarding improvements and decided to take a chance. To my surprise, course was 100 times better than they were the first time i played. Still some bad spots, looks like they are working on the sprinkler systems in some areas. Course could be a gem with some more work and proper maintenance, but again 100 time better than 2022. Keep up the maintenance and the course will be awesome.

The last time I golfed at Rio Vista was an unforgettable negative experience. I was very disappointed of the condition of the course and the unfriendly attitude in the club house. This time I had a much difference and pleasant experience. The course was in much better shape and Bessie was a very pleasant lady to talk with. I also very much appreciated Jessie the courtesy drink cart for she was kind and considerate. I will go back to Rio and play golf there again. .
