About this course
The Golf Courses of Kenton County are located in Independence and feature two distinct 18 hole layouts known as The Pioneer and The Willows. The Pioneer was the first course built at the complex in 1968 and offers a walkable 5,880 yard design with a par of 70. The Willows was designed by Dr. Michael Hurdzan and provides a more challenging championship test featuring tree lined fairways and undulating greens. A third course called Fox Run was closed in 2019. The facility is situated within a large public park ten miles south of downtown Cincinnati. The complex includes a driving range and a clubhouse with a full service bar and pro shop.

Devou Park Golf Course
Covington, KY · 7.8 mi away
Devou Park Golf Course sits within Devou Park in Covington, Kentucky, tucked into rolling hills just minutes from downtown Covington and Cincinnati, with several holes offering views of the Cincinnati skyline. The front nine was built by golf professional John Brophy when the course opened in 1922, and architect Gene Bates completed the back nine in 1995, giving the course a mix of older and modern hole design. The layout plays to roughly 6,000 yards from the back markers over zoysia fairways and bentgrass greens, and it is certified as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. It operates as a city-affiliated public course open to daily play, with tee times booked online or by phone, and the clubhouse includes the 19th Hole Bar & Grill for golfers and park visitors alike.
