El Rio Golf Course in Fort Myers is a player-friendly layout that will appeal to players of all skill levels. It's an ideal course for beginners who are looking to get in some practice on a full-length course. The layout consists of mostly par 3s and most of the holes are on the shorter side. Though it's a seemingly simple design, the greens have slopes that range from subtle to dramatic, which can make determining your approach to them a daunting task. Trees that line the fairways demand accuracy but the landing areas are generous. El Rio Golf Course has a pace of play that makes it convenient if you're looking for a quick round and the layout is gentle enough for beginners, and even junior players, to tackle with confidence.

First Time Playing

This course is sorely in need of attention and management needs to have a marshall on the course to keep the yahoos from going crazy.

Poor conditions, low quality par 3 executive course. Lots of people who never play holding things up, just not a good experience. I got to the club they had an advertised price out front, then told me if I wanted a cart it would be more. Not much fun.
