History

Rio Secco was designed and built in 1997 by golf course architect Rees Jones for the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino.[2] When Rio Secco opened in 1997, Golf Digest and Golf Magazine voted it among the top ten new public courses.

The Rio was purchased by Harrah's Entertainment (later Caesars Entertainment) in 1998.[3] The golf club was included in the 2017 spin-off of Vici Properties from Caesars.[4]

In 2022, Cabot assumed the operations of Rio Secco and Vici's other golf courses under a 20-year agreement.[5] In 2025, Cabot rebranded Rio Secco as Serket.[6]
