From the moment you drive up & into the facility, you know you're going to be thrilled.

Bag drop & pro shop attendants were efficient.

Great range with putting and chipping areas.

Greens were running quite quick, but rolled very true.

Fairways and tee boxes all in fabulous shape.

Thoroughly enjoyed the entire round.

Played on a Friday afternoon and pace was NOT a problem at all.

Great views of the LV area and the Strip on a few holes.

Can't wait to come back.....

Slow play on front nine little better on the back, but beautiful day and great layout and even better cart girl Jenna was the best very friendly and made a fun experience throughout the day.

Played in early March 2019. Fairways are in great shape. Greens were very firm and rolled true. A few memorable holes but mostly a nice layout that wound through the neighborhood. Unfortunately, we waited on every tee box, sometimes two groups deep. The group in front departed after nine holes which helped. Overall, highly recommended.

One of the most scenic courses that I have ever played Course was in great shape, greens ran smooth and the evaluation changes were spectacular.

Well traveled low hdcper this course is beautifull in perfect shape fast hard greens yet very fair. Clubhouse team solid range perfect and chipping area fantastic. The elevation changes and scenic views are awesome. Played back tees but would suggest anyone with 6 hdcp or higher move up a yee box it will be more fun. Fairways are wide but most players need to move up min of one tee but two woukd be best. Fabulous course for gold player

Certainly ranks as one of the top 2 or 3 golf links in the area!

Nice course, staff less than friendly and no control of pace of play! Marshall drove around but nothing was done

I have played many courses in Vegas, I try to play a different one every visit. My first time RIO Secco was awesome. The fairways and greens were in great shape, I will say the best I have ever played. I have played TPC Las Vegas, Paiute, Bears best and RIO Secco was the best condition and layout. I will definitely play it again. I am a 10 handicap.

The course right now is in terrific shape. If you kept the ball in the fairway it sat up and said, “Please hit me!”

Yes, the weather was hot but the course was in excellent shape. New alterations to the course made it that much more chalk. Great day but the heat

Had not played here in a couple years, mainly because felt the course was a little over rated and not the best value in town. However, decided to give another try on advice of friend who plays here a lot. Glad I did. Course was in better shape than I remember, except for the greens, which hadn't healed up completely from punching. In a couple weeks, they should be 100%. At $80, not a bad deal, not great. But would play again for sure.

There are a lot of positives about Rio Secco from the views to the conditions to the variety of holes. But all of that was overshadowed by the lack of decision making. Hit the fairway then aim for the middle of the green, repeat. Missing a fairway was almost certainly a lost ball, so challenging one side or the other was not an option, and wouldn’t have created an advantage.

The round never had a relaxing escape feel to it (see Shadow Creek). It was a stern test of consistent ball striking.

Rio Secco is the right answer for certain players, but not for me.

I love this course just a great solid layout greens were a little slower than I remember but I highly recommend it.

Staff was awesome. GPS would be helpful to indicate lines off of the tee but otherwise everything was top notch.

After a renovation lat year, Rio Secco certainly retains its spot as one of the Las Vegas area's best golf courses. There's nothing about this Rees Jones layout that's boring, from the elevated tees to the sometimes tricky greens and bunkering to the great views of the Las Vegas valley below. And while this is a premium golf experience through and through, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't arrive early and stay late to enjoy the amenities, which include a terrific clubhouse locker room, exceptional dining (which isn't overpriced at all) and nicely stocked golf shop. Practice facilities are also well above average.

The course is very good, but they have not kept up with expected amenities. First, the course. The front nine is beautiful and challenging, with big elevation changes and very interesting holes. The back nine is more forgiving, but still a good layout. Second, the amenities. My group's main complaint is the lack of GPS in the cart. This is 2018 and the course costs over $200 to play. In this day and age, nice courses have quality GPS systems. Rio Secco falls down here -- not having one at all. The clubhouse is fine. The food service on the course is adequate. The woman serving food on the course was very friendly.

I was excited about my first round at Rio Secco...I had heard a lot about the course, particularly as it is the home to Butch Harmon. While the course is in great shape, there were enough cons to make me think twice before playing here again:

Pros:

- Fun course, challenging layout

- Excellent conditions

- Friendly staff

Cons:

- There was no sand in any of the bunkers whatsoever. Staff said all bunkers (and greens) will be redone in upcoming renovation. But there is no excuse for a course that charges $120 at twilight to have bunkers filled with nothing but pebbles

- Pace of play was poor. 5 hour round on a Thursday afternoon is simply not acceptable, and there was not a marshal in sight

- Practice facilities are sub-par. For a high-end public course w/ $100+ greens fees, having to hit off a mat was disappointing, not to mention the lack of a dedicated short-game area / practice bunker.

I wanted to like Rio Secco, but the poor pace of play, abysmal condition of the bunkers, and below average practice area would make it hard for me to justify teeing it up here again in the future.

We played this course on a blazing hot June day. The pro shop staff was very friendly and advised me of the Total Rewards discount since we were staying at a Caesars property. Grabbed a couple pre game drinks from the friendly bar staff and off to the oven we went.

Practice area is very nice and close to #1 tee. There is also a snack bar right at the practice area and close to 1 and 10 tees so the layout is perfect.

Course was in great shape. No dry areas and fairways were consistent. Greens rolled well.

We played the back 9 first so we got to see some of the amazing closing holes first. Some amazing views, especially 11, 14 and 18. Good mix of easy and hard holes, which is how it should be. This is a resort course and you are supposed to enjoy the round, not get punished hole after hole.

Would highly recommend especially if you are a total rewards member.
