The Club at Los Rios
About
The Club at Los Rios opened in the early 1970s with a Don January and Billy Martindale design that takes advantage of eight small ponds and a creek that winds through the layout.
Water is in play on over half of the holes, including the opening 485-yard par 5 that features two ponds in play off the tee, and another fronting the green.
Two very difficult holes stand out on this narrow, shot-maker’s course. No. 7 goes 431 yards but allows for a huge tee shot with a generous fairway, which will definitely help on the dicey approach over the creek into a shallow green. On the par 5 No. 14, water crosses the fairway three times from the back tees.
Getting there : From I-75 north, take Plano Pkwy. east until it dead ends at Los Rios Blvd. Turn left onto Los Rios Blvd. And continue on for 1 mile to Country Club Dr. Turn right and drive a short distance to the course–look for the entrance on the right side of the street.

Temporary greens
It looks like the course will be nice when they get finished with all. The new greens. The temporary greens are ok. I will not return until they finish the greens
Don't waste your time!!!! Cheap or not, this facility and personnel need work! Played there on July 4th and had a terrible first experience!
Only saw cart girl one time. When we did, you could clearly tell she was on "something". Guys in the clubhouse very unprofessional in there remarks they were making to customers.
Course is currently under maintenance but the staff if very friendly!
Took the wife out to play on her birthday with a new set of clubs. Upon arrival, we saw that they were using temporary greens and were in the beginning phases of a 2 month process of redoing the regular greens. No big deal since we were just out to hit the ball and have a good time. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They are having a special that allows players to play all day for the cost of a single round. Great deal for someone who wants to practice. The temp greens were not all that bad. Of course they are not the regular greens but what can you expect. Overall, they have done a great job of making this course available for fun during this process. I have played here before the process began and it is a fun little course with no bunkers, just a little water, and a great staff. Overall, I would recommend this course to beginners and couples out to have a great time. The wife had a great time!
It would have been nice to know that they are using temporary greens before I booked my tee time and showed up!
I have never been a huge fan of this course but when I was having trouble finding a tee time at some other nearby courses I went ahead and booked. When I showed up and paid I was then told they were using temporary greens. I went ahead and played. It was awful. Don't waste your money (at least until they get the greens done). I won't be playing here any more.
Under Repair
This course is actually very nice when not in the renovation stage. They are currently redoing all the greens and are using temporaries which makes an already short course, VERY
short. I have played it before and find it challenging and nice. I will play it again, but I will wait until the renovations are done! I would recommend it after the repairs are done only.
Fairly Open, enjoyable round
Got out early and had a nice enjoyable round. They are replacing all of the greens, so will probably play elsewhere until they are finished.
Good Value
Friendly staff, good facilities, course is in good condition. Caveat - they are replacing their greens in early July 2013, but will go back!
Feel good course
My major issue is that they accepted my tee time request, without mentioning that during the play they would be letting out about 25 Pre teens off at the tenth hole, which completely altered the pace of the game to a complete stop. Staff was friendly, however, there was no control on the tee box. One guy in small pro shop working the pro shop as well as a make shift concession. there is great room for improvement.
The course is fun, and bring many first timers as well as mixed groups here, so it creates entertainment for all levels, just needs better presentation.
Stay on course
Everything is greening up, high rough, lots of opportunities to lose balls, water threatens frequently and various fairways mown in circular spots prior to approach. Slow play with fivesomes thrown in amongst singles.
Some good holes but overall a simple course.
Some good holes but overall a simple course. Nothing wrong with it but just not a lot going on design wise. The course was in fine shape, the staff was nice and helpful, no complaints there just a basic golf course. Would go back again.
Doesn't take rain well.
The course was soggy 3 days after rain. Fairway grass is maintained too high.
Greens were hard and fast.
Greens are in great condition
Pretty wide open and flat course. Most holes are straight and level.
Course is poorly layed out, holes too close together.
I was a single who was paired with a threesome of beginners. They were very slow and the marshall was on us constantly to speed up. So it was just my unlucky day!!
1st time to play there
This was my first visit, and I really enjoyed the round with some others i played with. I recommend they do some serious tee box remodel! some of the boxes were exremely bad. The yardage on some of the holes seem to be incorrect, checking with range finder some off by 20 yards. Other than that great value for the money and i will return
Good Easy Course
Holes are mostly straight. Par 3s are short except for 1 200+ yarder. Over all, I really like this course for an easy round. Not too challenging, but well kept.
Good course, just a tad over priced.
At $45 weekend rate I feel this course is below average for the money but not a poor value. Except for some of the cart paths being under repair (and water) the course was in pretty good condition. However, I believe it is stated on their website that cart paths are under repair, so no big deal there. The greens were great and most T-boxes were in good shape, but some were just dirt.
There are a lot of hidden hazards if you are not familiar with this course.
I will play here again, I just think it's a little over priced.
had a great time
We played on a Friday at the Los Rios GC and had a great time. The golf course was maintained and played nicely without big crowds. Will go back again soon.
Good value, great condition
Years ago this course was always in rough condition. But that simply isn't case any more. They do well keeping this course in good condition, to make it a good playing experience and value.
Fun course to play, sufficiently challenging for all levels of play.
I had not played the course in several years. I found it well maintained. I have an 17-20 handicap and found playing from the the white tee boxes challenging and fun.
