Ground was rock hard
After all the rain that came through last week, I did not expect the ground to be as hard as it was. Balls in the fairway rolled off to the rough, and balls in the rough rolled into the woods. It was impossible to keep track of your ball, because it was nowhere near where it landed. Some shots felt like I was hitting off of cartpath. I would not play this course again unless there were major groundskeeping renovations. Better off playing somewhere else for your money.
Thank you for the feedback. We hope you enjoyed your visit and would love to have you back again. Have a great day!
Worth it
Tough course from blue tees.. 1st time playing.. Back 9 was one of the toughest in the area.
Early season 9 holes
Course was wet and due to massive amounts of rain, there were several area's of washout and the paths were in terrible shape. They have a lot of work to do to get the course in shape for the season. Sadly, even if it is in top shape, it's not a $60 course which is what they're charging now.
Great time for a great price
They always do a great job on this course and the price tag is the best part. For it being February, the course was in great condition and the ham and cheese sliders to end the day were the cherry on top a great golf day.
Thank you so much for sharing and we are glad your experience was a great one! The staff here at Kenton County is also very fond of the ham and cheese sliders. Be on the look out next time you visit.
Few days after last round
Fresh mowed fairways, greens were rolling great this time. Well kept course.
Thank you for sharing and glad you enjoyed your time playing!
Windy day in February
70 degrees in February, the course is always in great condition. New cart paths on back 9 big improvement this year. Always a challenging course. But the wind was howling. Still had a great time, always fun to play here. Staff is accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend playing here if you're up to the challenge.
February Golf
Nice clubhouse, good meal selection, course was in great shape for February in Kentucky. Greens a little shaggy but you’ll have that this time of the year. No complaints here. I will definitely be back.
Good winter golf
We got a chance to play in 60 degree weather for 18 holes after a heavy snow the week before. Course was only wet in few bad spots but overall great shape!
One of the wonderful courses in Northern Kentucky
Since the aeration, I had a hard time in green. Otherwise, the course gave me a great time. I strongly recommend other golfers. It is a little strange that I cannot get a hot deal from this course. Golf Now or Golf Pass, please deal with this issue.
Awesome
Dave and the crew have done an amazing job and it’s alway meticulous and well
Maintained
Challenging Course
Lots of elevation changes to greens. Greens are sloped and tough to read. Enjoyed the challenge.
Willows Rules
KC Golf courses are among the best county courses.
Greens were fast and rolled true. Fairway cut well and rough appropriate.
