Knowing how cold it was going to be, made certain that I played a “walking course” because playing in the cold with a cart can be brutal. Just never can get loose. So back out to Rio Hondo. Kind of knew what to expect after having played here only a few weeks ago, and reading the recent reviews.

Greens better than expected, quicker and rolled better. Fairways were a mixed bag, with some really nice lies, quite a few thin lies, but its winter, so need to cut the course a little slack. Bunkers were OK, at least those which I was in.

Not super busy, perhaps due to the weather, so pace of play was fine. I like this course and the staff is always friendly and accommodating

Played this AM. Course handled the rain very well. Within the end of the week, it should be dry with decent weather.

Found the tee boxes all playable. Some fairways were still damp, but not soggy. It was hard of course to get really good lies, but using “Lift Clean Place” (LCP) it was better. Found some of the fairways to have good roll, which was surprising. Rough was still wet and brutal. Bunkers were all playable, as the maintenance team had worked on them. Greens had been mowed and chipped/putted very well all round.

Customer service excellent.

Played Monday 6/11 at about 0830. Course was open and we played the front 9 in about 2 hours, the back 9 got backed up and we played in total in about 4:40.

The Review

Tee boxes were nice and above average. Good coverage without much divot damage and mostly flat lies.

Fairways were in good shape with good lies.

I was not in any greenside sand, but I did find myself in a fairway bunker. No complaints. My playing partner did complain of a firm lie in a greenside bunker.

Rough varies from thick and lush to moderate/fluffy.

Greens are nearly fully recovered from aeration. Practice green still shows the most from the aeration, but I had no complaints as the greens rolled pretty true with slightly faster than medium speed.

Recommended at this time.
