The golf course is located in the Reserva de Marapendi and is managed by the Brazilian Golf Association.

The facility, which was built in an environmental protection area, has an area of 970,000 m² and consists of 18 holes and two artificial lakes. Up to 15,000 spectators can attend the events on the facility. The first golf tournament was the Aquece Rio Golf Challenge , which was considered a test for the Olympic Games on March 8, 2016. The winner of the tournament, in which nine Brazilian golfers took part, was Miriam Nagl .
During the 2016 Summer Olympics , golf tournaments were held on the course . These were the first St. Louis Olympic golf tournaments since 1904 . The tournaments took place between August 11th and 20th.
