Rio Secco
Rating Snapshot
About
Designed by Rees Jones and Keith Evans, Rio Secco Golf Club in Henderson affords great views of the Las Vegas Strip below as golfers try to find the course's tricky bentgrass greens. Said greens can be difficult to read, and if you find yourself above the hole, two-putts become a real challenge. One of the most talked about holes, the 200-yard par-3 12th, plays over a valley to a large green that slopes severely from back to front. Back pin positions are difficult, but a front location can yield aces as everything seems to funnel to that spot. Rio Secco is also home to the Butch Harmon School of Golf.

Excellent day
Fantastic day at Rio Secco. Tee to green it was in tournament condition
Highly recommend
Played in less the. 4 hours
Helpful staff
Friendly course ranger to help keep things moving.
Food was top notch as well
Definitely plan to go back
Excellent course with PGA feeling!!
When you ever wonder what's its like to play a tour type golf course , Rio Secco is exactly that without all the tv media and competition...
Fun, tough course
Great golf course and fun experience. A good challenge with great views and layout. Bunkers were a bit inconsistent and a lot were being worked on. Some had a ton of sand and some were super thin.
Great golf with a View
Amazing views of the Las Vegas Strip and the course was awesome
We were not informed that the course was cart path only ahead of time or at check in.
Beautiful Area
My husband and I played this course.
We were slotted with course members, which was helpful giving us advice about the course.
It is a beautiful layout and scenery.
Thank you so much for the 5 star rating on your experience at Rio Secco. We're thrilled you and your husband enjoyed the time with us, and look forward to your next visit to Rio Secco.
Thank you for the 5 star rating.
Nice and pleasant course.
Aside from the blistering heat of 100* at 9am, it was an enjoyable round. I wish the courses started earlier due to the heat but the pro shop said the homeowners around the course (which was built AFTER the course) put a moratorium on noise until 6:30am. Stupid. I’ll be sending
Just four stars? Sorry to see we fell short in some areas. We hope to see you again at Rio Secco, perhaps when it's not well north of triple digit heat outside, and the course conditions might suit you better.
Thank you for the high marks, and for the 5 star rating!
Thank you for the 5 stars!!
Need to play
1st time
Staff friendly
Some tee boxes hard to put tee in the ground
Alot of walking up and down
Some holes fairway closed, if you have a bad knee like myself can be a pain
Thank you for the review of the experience at Rio Secco. We're sorry we didn't meet your expectations, but hope you'll give us another chance. Lots of variety and elevation changes on our Rees Jones design, and yes a few cart path only hole due to the extreme nature of them, but now that you've got a round under your belt, we think you'll enjoy it more the next time. Take care of that knee. We hope to see you soon.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to let us know how we did. Glad we knocked it out of the park, or in parlance striped it right down the middle. Hope to see you again at Rio Secco the next time you're in town.
