Great shape course

Playing Kennsington this early in the spring can be a pretty wet deal,but today the course was in great shape.The greens have been redressed and were in very good shape. Only two fairways were not allowing carts on them. Snack bar not opened yet, but that was expected. All in all it was a great day on a great course

Nice but....

Very nice course with nice pro shop and restaurant. Nice layout. Nice carts with GPS. Greens are average. Fairways were cut nice but did have some dead areas. Only negative was the rough. The rough grass was extremely tall. It really hurt the pace of play. Rough was almost a foot tall in some areas. Other than that we had a great time.

Kensington GolfNow Review

Course is an interesting layout. Unfortunately, pace of play is incredibly slow because of the difficulty of the course. People do not play appropriate tee boxes for skill level and the course does nothing to encourage / suggest players play from the appropriate tee boxes. Be prepared for a very long slow round.

Lots of Potential

This course was a nice surprise! I thought it played very well with some appropriately placed hazards on certain holes. Hopefully it will be around for years to come.

Maintenance of greens

I play Kennsington on a pretty regular basis. I think it’s certainly one of the very best course layouts in northeast Ohio.The problem I have is the poor shape of the greens . In the spring they were great .Now they a covered with ball marks as if nobody ever thought of repairing there own ball marks., much less someone else’s . Even if they just had containers of sand -seed mix on each tee area so the golfers could repair the tee areas.

Going Downhill

I have played this course many times of the past few years, and the condition of the course gets wore every time. The course is still in good shape and one of the best in the area, but they seem to care more about adding hotels and banquet centers, rather than taking care of the course. Still a great course due to layout, but not a top tier course like in the past.

I like the course. It is true challenge for me.However, all the rain that has fallen in the past months has been hard on the course, especially the greens, which are slower than I recall in the past. Many of the greens had unrepaired ball marks, which was particularly frustrating. But overall, a very good course.
