kensington
love the coarse play it at least twice a year good distance away for me
This is a no-go
I was pretty amped about playing this course, because I had heard some decent things about the conditions and layout. The golf itself was fine, albeit on the slow side- course was definitely overbooked. It took 2.5 hours to play front 9.
More disappointing is that the course does not offer rain checks. This is an appalling policy, as it in no way encourages people to come back and play. Even speaking with staff, they said “everyone knows this about us”. I do wonder how a first time player is supposed to know a course plans to take your money and run. Even further, the staff who mentioned the had been there 3-5 years agreed that it was a terrible policy (looking at you Bob and Terry) but nothing could be done. This only reinforces the notion that the owners/managers are stingy and in no way want to encourage future attendance.
Needless to say, I will not be returning. There are far better value courses in the areas. I’m here to play golf, not line someone’s pockets.
Has potential
Course has potential to be a great course. Rough is extremely long, some fairways quite wet, great layout, slow pace of play. Staff not friendly at all. We had one player that was sick and asked for a rain check. I was rudely told they don't do rain checks and it wasn't raining. Now rather than us going back to play there again, they have lost a customer.
One of my favorites
Well worth an hour drive for Pittsburgh. Excellent course.
So much potential but....
Great layout but course needs a little TLC, has alot of potential to be a fabulous course. Some fairways were very wet, hard to even find firm ground. Greens were in good condition, rough is way to long
Great layout, fun but very challenging
Some of the holes are suffering from dry conditions. #10 is atrocious. But it looks like they did they did the right thing and tore it up to save it for next year. Most holes are very playable. Greens were good but bit long. This coarse is always fun to play, great layout. Always something new on every hole.
Challenging
This is a great course. Greens are large and sloped. Fairways are in good condition, except for a few spots that maybe had some hot weather damage. The rough is punitive-a good thing to know going in. Look for last minute deals on GolfNow. I find them frequently. Staff is friendly.
Incredible layout, but things are trending the wrong way.
I absolutely love Kensingtons layout and the way the course plays, it’s incredible. But the last time I was there not only did the course conditions suffer, but the pace of play was so slow that I had to quit after 9 as I was approaching 3 hours for 9 holes as a single, the starters and front desk were absolutely no help, and I basically wasted my money. I will most likely not be back for a while unfortunately, as I was left with a very sour taste in my mouth. (It was a weekday, not even a weekend)
course has potential to be the standard of public courses
This course is a little beat up right now by the heat like most places in the surrounding area. I would love to play this course again in peak condition. I had an amazing time and enjoyed my round thoroughly. Pace of play was polite. The course was busy. People allowed others to play through including a foursome allowing me to go through quickly and efficiently. Tim, I believe was his name, in the pro shop was very nice and accommodating. He initiated a friendly atmosphere unlike most places, I highly recommend giving this course a try.
Golf Course
The golf course is absolute crap not only that but the staff is so rude. For anyone to pay 40 dollars for 9 holes is ridiculous and there is no way to get your money back. Would never recommend coming here. Hands down the worst course I have ever played at, no wonder there was open tee times on this beautiful day.
Horrible Play pace!!!
Absolutely horrible pace of play had to pass two groups in order to play four holes in 1.5hrs!!!
Thunder, lightning, and heavy rain close the course, no manager on site.
No voucher would be given completely ridiculous, Course was closed, unsafe with lighting, standing water in the greens. Refused to refund or even just give us a voucher for the remaining holes. Total joke, no rangers on the course.
GaryB
Would play again, the course layout is very nice, but it could be better maintained.
