Atrocious conditions and time.

I think they use farm equipment to cut the fairways, and haven't watered since last summer. Abominable. Quit after 9 holes and 3 hours on 9/15/13.

Once upon a time.

I grew up 5 minutes from Kenton Co. Courses which houses 3 courses this Fox Run and The Pioneer of the 3 this has always been my favorite however on 7/20/13 the course was barely even playable on the front 9 greens were in such poor condition we almost left... fairways on some holes on the front have patches of dirt.... unacceptable. This course use to be one of the gems in the area now it's nothing but an eye sore... painful.

Nice course

Friendly staff; nice course in good condition and some challenging holes.
Con: no restroom available on course
On this occasion, had the unfortunate timing of having the mowing crew follow and sit and wait behind our shots on 4 of the first 5 holes.

Fun place

Played 4 rounds here in a tourney a few years back... The members went wayyyy low, shot 77,77,72,72 and lost by 12 shots... Beautiful course, great greens, and nice set up... I believe a real golf course needs a long par 3, a short par 3, a reachable par 5, a risk/reward par 5, a driveable par 4, and a mix of left to right, right to left, and straight holes... This course has all this....
