Great Course

Course is great, if I wanted to find something to complain about it’d be hard. Just a couple bunkers being redone but that’s about it. Not hurting anything at all.
Greens were slippery! Be careful there because it definitely added strokes.
New carts are amazing! Great GPS, and AWESOME that you can connect by bluetooth.
Price is a little up there but it’s definitely worth playing the course.

Wish I Had Played Here Sooner

Have been hearing about this course for a number of years, but since it's a little over an hour's drive from home, I never took the time. My loss.
Kennsington is a well-maintained, well-thought-out course that made me hit everything in my bag at least once. We played about a week after the greens had been aerated so I can't really assess their speed and condition on-season but they seemed to be a reasonable challenge.
Being what might be the really last day of the season the course became crowded later in the day and the pace of play bogged down on the back 9.
I really liked the experience here and I'll be back.

Kensington Golf Course

Always like playing here using GolfNow to book my Tee Time. Course was in great shape. People playing are kind and considerate. Pace of play is usually fast. Today's round was 3 hours.

Beautiful!

Beautiful course! Extremely well conditioned. Greens perfect, but a bit quick. Only criticism would be for first time players, there’s a number of blind shots and the GPS does help, but often had to go forward to take a look and be sure the group in front was out of range. Lots of penalty areas. Must be a real “Bear” from the back tees. Price was very reasonable. Lovely homes align the course property.

There was a group of 16 in front of us… terrible planning by the course, we couldn’t even play the back (which we paid for).

Slowest play

Waiting 20-30 minutes to tee off every hole at one point there were 3 groups lined up to tee off that is absolutely uncalled for. No starter or Marshall did anything about despite 4 groups calling into the club house. Course wasn’t in good condition at all as well. Either swampy areas or areas were like concrete. Was not impressed at all.

One of Youngstowns best golf course.

Always enjoy playing Kensington. Course is always in excellent shape. Pace of play is fast. I like all the homes along fairways . Feels like you are playing at a"stadium" course.

Home sweet home course.

Always like playing here. Friendly staff and golfers. Played here several times in 3 hours. Many nice homes along fairways give course character. It is great having 2 other nice golf courses nearby to take some pressure off Kensington.
