Pioneer at Golf Courses at Kenton County, The

I booked this for a threesome. We wanted to play a course near to us. Figure to try this one out. Staff is awesome. The bar and concessions are very good with daily specials from the bar. I have played The Willows and Fox Run in the past.

Pulling in you see they paved over the parking lot and and lined it properly. They marked the cat path clearly when in the parking lot.

Front nine was pretty good and challenging. Then at the 10th green it all went downhill. Tenth green was 95% burnt down to dirt. In fact a guy was watering it as we were playing. We were shocked because it was so early in the season since its not even summer yet. 3 more holes were like this. TRULY disappointed. Maybe they should go to check Shawnee Lookout to see how greens are SUPPOSED to be?

You're better off going to Devou or Boone Links if you want to play a decent round.

The greens could use a little attention and the cart paths look and feel like they were in a war zone(very bad shape). Should have put the money they spent on parking lot and clubhouse into the course itself.

Have played this course a few times over the years. Always enjoyed it being a bogey golfer it gave you a chance at scoring. When playing this time the tee boxes were like concrete could not get a tee into the ground. Greens on the front 9 were ok but the back nine were terrible. Looks like they airated some and killed all the grass. Will not be playing pioneer this summer again may try Willows and hope for better conditions.

It was an okay day, the front nine is in better shape than the back nine. there was a couple of hole where the greens were already burnt up.

The course is good condition greens in good shape and some ter boxes are closed for renovation.

The course was in better shape when we played here a few weeks ago; Tee boxes, fairways and cart paths need some major work. greens were in good shape. we got the 4:24 tee time on golfnow - unfortunately that was the first tee time after an elderly weekly group, so we played very slow the first 9 holes, then had to rush to pass a walking 2-some after we made the turn. don't pay more than $15 to play this course.

Loved the course just don't be late for tee time

Upon arriving the staff was friendly and accommodating. The course was in good shape and the greens rolled well. We rode and had a pace of play of 3.75 hrs. I would recommend the course. There are 3 18 hole golf courses here so you can find one that will satify your needs.

In great shape, greens smooth, good for short hitters like me.

Beautiful course. All the greens are in immaculate condition. Just pay attention to the nuances of the green when putting. Had a great time. All of the staff are very friendly and the grass cutters were very considerate of us when playing through.

I would have been happier and rated higher but I was stuck behind a 5 some where 4 children were learning the game. I was on a 2 some and would have preferred to play through. Since they weren't allowing it, we played very slow and it was not as much fun. Easy course and not a lot of hazards to worry about. Will be back again.

If you're looking to play a 5 star course, try Augusta National. If you want to play a nice local course, that's not too challenging play The Pioneer. Yeah, the pace was a little slow, and the guy at the front counter wasn't the best. But the Starter was a great guy and the course was in good condition.

Course was average. Played the front nine. Thank you

It's only worth $25 or less. You play on a weekend and it is going to be a 5 hour round. Fairly easy course. That being said, it is really not a bad course if you get a good price. Alot of beginners play this course though so be ready to hurry up and wait.

The fairways and greens were in great shape, I would highly recommend checking it out.

This is one of my favorite course. Good for bad to intermediate players.

The course was in excellent shape and the weather could not have been better as it was in the 70's.
The staff was pleasant but the pace of play seemed a little slow. Overall it was a great day for golf.

I've been playing at Kenton County for over 15 years. Pioneer has never looked better. Green, tee boxes, and fairways were mint condition. Played from the Black Tees. Coarse playes easy on the front and difficult on the back. I would highly recommend playing this coarse to anyone.
