“Great Place-golf course needs a little work!”

Reviewed 1 June 2013

I love the River Ranch! We have been there several times. The rodeo is a little short but that`s probably relative to participation. The golf course is pretty dreadful but functional just ignored and overgrown. The staff are very nice but have little information about the local area. We asked about the Florida Trail and the KICCO Wildlife area that... More
