Greens are a little bumpy but not too bad. Fairways are dormant this time of the year. Fun course that can yield lots of birdies if you keep the ball in the fairway.

Played on morning of MLK day. Greens are nice, fairways are dormant and thin - not bad for January though. Rio Hondo is a decent little course but $47 to walk is on the steep side. The layout is OK... Continue »

I like this course. Have for a long time. But...$47.00 to walk on New Years "Eve" day? Last time I looked, this was not a holiday.
Oh well, greens were good, mildly bumpy. Fairways were tight & d... Continue »

I've been playing this course regularly for 15+years, and now that the secret is out, the course is suffering for it. I know every green like the back of my hand, and although the speed is good, they... Continue »

Played on 11/03/2007, and the greens were in GREAT shape. Probably the best roll I've seen on a ball in years. Every putt rolled true and the speed was perfect...not too slow, not too fast.

Played yesterday, 10/24. Unfortunately, the greens weren't up to the usual rio hondo standards. Not sure how long ago they aerated, but many greens had a waffle like look to them. It also looked li... Continue »

Play here a lot, greens still quite bumpy after aeration, not rolling well yet. Give course 2-3 more weeks.

Played on October 8. Rio Hondo has a nice mix of short, medium, and long par 4s with some challenging par 3s. The course is in good condition although they are over seeding the tee boxes which has lit... Continue »

This place is almost always in good shape. Hard to find a downside except for pace of play can be a bit slow. Course conditions are consistantly good. Worth the money.
