Rio Secco Golf Course
The Rio Secco Golf course is an outstanding course by eminent designer Rees Jones. This course is not an uncommonly tough one for most any weekend player and should prove a noble antagonist to the expert golfer. Neophytes will have the easiest time with the course's holes 1, 7, and 17.
The course is truly a fun one, but a valuable word to the wise is that you should be careful that holes 10 and 18 have several naughty little bunkers off their tricky straight par 3 fairways to try to avoid at all costs. By and large the greens are multitiered, user friendly, and swift.
When you want to unwind the lavish clubhouse is ready for you with courteous service while you revel in the sensational Nevada High Desert vistas of the green course.
