Good round of golf

Kensington is what you would expect. A decent layout, some interesting dog legs, and relatively wide open. Condition early in the season was acceptable. They do average well here. You'll never claim this is the best course you've played but is a fun 4 hours and some challenges. Par 3s are long

A Good Golf Course!

I played here on 3/4 and the course was in good shape. Normally, we should still have some snow on the ground in March. The course was fairly dry and the greens were in a better condition expected. The golf fee was reasonable. You will definitely have fun here!

Good better than basic golf

Best of the Metro parks, nice full length course, nothing amazing or any great views.

Good to play provided it's not busy, otherwise it can be a death march.

Nice course Rude Golfers

My wife and I have been meaning to play this course for years, the. Course conditions were very good and the staff was friendly. We got paired up with a great couple, but, spent the day behind 2 foursomes that were poor players and eventually consolidated on hole 14 which slowed pace of play even more. The twosome behind us spent the day hitting up on us even after being asked to give us more room. The round lasted almost 6 hours before frustration took over and we quite on tee 18. Not sure if this course is going to be on our play again list.

Great course in great shape, very crowded and pace of play was slow, but overall it's a nice course. The only other downside is having to pay for entering the park, even if your playing golf
