The Willow at Golf Courses at Kenton County, The

Front nine is tight and tests your placement skills . Hole # 4 a Bogie feels like par . Back nine # 10 plays like a par 5 . All in all one of the tougher courses in Northern Kentucky.

18 Holes of overcast.

Good friends, New clubs, and a little friendly competition, What a great Day.

The Fox Run course is in good condition and the greens were running at about 10.5 to 11.

The willows course was in terrific shape compared to when I played over the summer. Excellent conditions and the weather was very delightful. Will be going back again.

One of the poorest courses I've played at in the past couple of years. Greens are in bad shape. Staff was all over the course, forcing us to either stand and wait or play on as they awkwardly watched from the sides of the green on several holes.

I played the Willows today for 1.49 so it was worth that....but at regular price you would be disappointed....this course used to be my favorite around here to play, but now it’s like Meadowood....fairways are patchy at best, a couple greens were terrible, and I mean TERRIBLE....rough wasn’t altogether awful, hard to spot your ball on a couple holes, but it is the rough so I’m good with that....layout is awesome and course could be great again if properly managed....I won’t return this year but might give it a shot next year

The public golf courses at Kenton County continue to go downhill. The fairways are patchy. The greens are worse. If you mistakenly miss the fairways with your drive, prepare to say goodbye to your ball because you'll likely never find it. The "Old man's club" that seems to be promoted out here is actually hurting the course. Way more unrepaired ball Mark's than repaired. Top that off with a refreshing $2.50 diet coke and... (way overpriced). It seems to be all the public courses around here. Boone county courses are not much better. Best decent golf in the area is Belterra or North to Cincinnati.

I want to like this course I really do...I’ve played at Kenton Co since high school — 20+ years — but the past five years have seen a steady decline in the care of the course. They are making some improvements, but it’s probably to little to late.

The greens were horrible, fairways tolerable and tee boxes concrete...

Took my 7 yr old son with me, both of us had a great time.

Worst conditioned course I've played this year (30+). Superintendent should be embarrassed. Greens fee should be $15 or less. Besides the conditions, the layout is not for the average golfer. On certain holes, just off the fairway, the rough is no longer mown for no particular reason, other than to save $$. Spent all their $$ on the clubhouse and re-design of the parking lot! That's what golfers want, a lovely clubhouse and parking lot!! HAH!!

The course was in horrible shape. Every fairway and green had many dead spots. I won’t be going back there

Played on a Monday morning. Not crowded and peaceful. Great time to work on my game, which needs a lot of work.

This course had a great layout and was a lot of fun.

I have played every course this year at Kenton County, and the Willows was by far in the worst shape. Greens were hard as a rock and not very receptive. The greens has big holes where turf was missing, especially on the 10th and the 11th holes. The fringe areas had patches of long grass, and it seemed that my ball found the bare patch behind a piece of rough on two or three holes. The staff is friendly inside, but the mowers are going to do their job even if you are ready to tee off. I hit one over a mower because I was tired of waiting, and he stared me down on my next shot, then followed me until I got to the green. It was very frustrating!!!!

Some of the greens had big black spots other than that for a Sunday it was a great value and pace of play was 4 hours

The greens had some patchy bad spots. The weather hasn't been that hot yet and the greens already look shabby. Cart paths are in bad need of repair. The parking lot is fabulous, only wished they would've used monies they wasted beautifying the parking on the golf course itself.

If you like 5 1/2 hour rounds on balky carts then this is the place for you.

Course was in good early spring condition, stsff was very friendly. I would suggest on course player assistants to keep play moving.

First time playing here and the course was in great shape. Front 9 significantly easier than the back. My main problem was the fairway layout though. A lot of the fairways stop 80-150 yards before the front of the green. If you don't hit a solid approach shot, you'll be punished for coming up short with a shot out of the rough. I don't quite see the need for that. Other than that the course is fantastic. Highly recommend playing it if you have the chance.

Let’s consider the facts.... We’re golfing in March. Can’t really complain about much. Coarse was in okay condition for March. Biggest complaint. Golf Now was more expensive then Kenton County. It’s 25 dollars to play right now. I should’ve called the coarse but didn’t think too because I use Golf Now all the time. Golf Now was 2.50 dollars higher because of their 5 dollar “convenience” fee lol

Course was in good shape for the main fact that it was January and off season. Look forward to playing it again in season. Nice layout and challenging
