-Concrete tee pads
-Fairly useful signs
-Grass and general course in good repair
-Multiple shots that use fades to both left and right, creating variety
-Variety of both wooded and open shots

-Hard to find first tee, see below
-multiple baskets can be seen from certain tees, leading to confusing shots the first time through
-The par is set far higher than it should be for anyone beyond beginner
-Drainage on a few holes is poor, leading to some mud and swampy conditions
-I am not aware of any bathrooms or water available

If parking at the park parking lot, walk across the field towards the baseball backstop. Go down the hill, across the bridge, and you'll see a small trail going up the hill into the woods towards the right. You'll come across a sign and the first hole there

+ Very good concrete tees, mostly level (I think remember #18 being slanted on the side of a hill); workable signage with a nice map at the first tee

+ The opening holes are wooded, and while they're not terribly long, they're very good woods holes

+ The course opens up starting with hole #6, but the baskets are generally placed using the stands of trees around the park. There's also a lot of elevation change - so even the most open tee shots require some thought before you just blast away

+ My hands-down favorite hole was #16: a downhill sharp dogleg around a stand of trees, with a pond looming straight ahead. It's all about throwing directly at the water and trusting your disc's fade

- While it was mostly easy to navigate, there are a few holes where you see several baskets from the tee, and the signs don't give clear indication of where to throw. We never made a mistake, but there were a few times we discussed it before throwing

- #17 has a makeshift walkway because it clearly gets really muddy. A short drive will make you have to slog around in it

~ For a course that starts with a sense of being deep in the woods, the middle holes play right up against suburban backyards. And coming from northern New Jersey, I'm jealous of the municipal parks in Pennsylvania that welcome disc golf

~ The par 4's in the middle of the round are generous. I birdied 3 of them (I had a disaster on #9 when I tried to throw a roller, and then stubbornly threw rollers for the rest of the hole until I putted in for a 7. Yeah, call me "Tincup"...)

~ Another reviewer here ("itsrudy") recommended that I play Kenilworth, Camp Sankanac and Boyertown, and I'm glad he did

~ I rated this course a solid "3", and my easy-grading buddy gave it a 3.5. It's worth the trip, especially if you're combining it with other courses, like Boyertown

+ Tee pads are contiguous slabs of concrete with wooden frames. They have decent space for a wind-up.
+ Tee signs are clear and concise if a bit basic.
+ The course plays within a quiet neighborhood park nestled inside a peaceful suburban area. I felt safe and calm here.
+ Wide open fields to enjoy flinging far and sunshine.
+ Five or six wooded holes give a taste of disc golf in the forest.
+ Tidy and nicely maintained grounds. Even the areas of rough seemed well-managed.
+ Nearly all baskets have arrows suspended from them pointing towards the next hole.

- Some of the baskets are a bit too close to the next hole's tee pad. This could result in injury at worst or annoyance at best. Pin 2 and tee 3 come to mind as an easy example, but there are others.
- All of those wide open holes are bunched together in the same area and follow one right after another. It feels way too repetitive way too quickly after hole 6.
- The holes aren't so long to begin with. The absolute longest on offer is 395 feet, so the wide open fields may underwhelm some players.
- A few of the tee signs show pars that sound incorrect from my perspective. Assigning par 4 to holes with 285 feet seems a bit too generous-- even for a beginner's course.
- Some spots feel as though the player is trespassing on private property like tee9, pin10 and tee11.

My favorite hole at this course is hole 3 because it is a downhill glide that starts open and ends within a tunnel. I liked that change of difficulty mid-hole. My least favorite hole is 17 because I'm not a fan of blind sharp turns like the one found there, and the fairway looked like a riverbed when I went. Water was visibly trickling across it during my visit.

As for the course as a whole, Kenilworth Park is an ideal beginner's course. It does not demand much from the player except their time and attention. There are no difficult angles to master through trees. There are no grand distance challenges that push the player to the limit. It is a brief course that gets players used to the kinds of things one can run into on most disc golf courses.

It starts out wooded with holes 1 through 5. They aren't too tough, but ignoring their features is a sure way to stumble into trouble territory. The open holes throughout the rest of the course go uphill, downhill, slanted and through a few tree lines. This course teaches newbies what they need to know while keeping the distance demands manageable. Players with more than a year of regular experience should find the course refreshing and rewarding with many chances for birdies and a few ace runs.

Some of the holes do play a bit too closely to private residences. Holes 6's fairway blitzes right past someone's backyard, and I felt like I needed to knock on someone's door to ask permission to tee off on hole 9. The course's brevity minimizes bad throws onto people's property but also makes the course less stimulating. The lack of challenge throughout holes 6 - 18 also makes for a rather plain experience. Then again, it is important to remember that this course really isn't meant for high-level play. There are plenty of courses nearby to fill that need.

So, I definitely recommend Kenilworth Park DGC to new players and any golfer simply seeking a stress-free session to collect some birdies.

Bottom line: There needs to be more disc golf courses out there like the one found at Kenilworth Park. It is a straight-forward and perfectly playable course that can be enjoyed by golfers of all abilities. It doesn't require a ton of power or unshakable concentration. It's just a decent course that hits the right notes. Look past its bare bones structure, and you should find yourself enjoying what is here.

Kenilworth is an beginner par 3 course that will easily turn into a birdie sanctuary for more advanced players, but it's an extremely solid home course for the rest of us. Much of the community park is specifically dedicated to Disc Golf and the course makes full use of the local terrain with a variety of shots. It has yellow banded discatchers, adequate tee signs and excellent 5'x10' concrete tees flush with ground.

The first five holes loop on a gentle incline in the forest with generous fairways. The rest of the course takes place in open grass, slightly hilly fields with pockets of forest. Median length is 235' and the longest is a 395' downhill.

It's not extremely technical but there's enough going on for most recreational players and it generally hits the mark of what an excellent community course can offer.

Baseball and fishing in the lake by the parking lot seems popular.

+There is a solitary practice basket north of the lake, left when driving in.
+Throwing #9, a downhill 400'er with a right turn, is always fun!

A few minor downsides. It's very well frequented. Even on weekday afternoons, you'll likely bump into player groups. Other than a few dog walkers, park regulars generally won't be on the DG course.

For first-timers, it's also a bit confusing where the disc course actually is and signs are not about.

It's a lot to mow and that sometimes doesn't happen often enough. It's not uncommon to find an unkempt field above ankle height during wet and warm months.

During little league baseball season, the main lake parking lot gets stuffed without much room to turnaround -- the second parking lot is about 750' backwards, at the end of Park Drive, and mostly empty.

-#16 with a pond straight out in front is the most probable disc loss spot.

Starting Point: Use the parking lot by the lake. Talk the walkway at the southern end that goes downhill and go straight over the metal bridge and turn right uphill. A couple hundred feet should be a billboard and first tee on the left.

Amenities: Portapotty at beginning of lake parking lot.

Kenilworth DGC is a solid rec course which starts with a series of wooded holes then branches out into a more open area. Fifteen of the holes play in the 200's, only stretch's to 395' and two are under 200'.

The course features a nice, large colored course map which narrowly escaped some damage when a rather large over narrowly missed the course sign. Th3 baskets are Pennsylvania's favorite, Discatchers, with the yellow bands, #'s and a next tee arrow hanging below. The tee pads are nice sized concrete with a wooden border. The tee signs are simple and basic but each has a sponsor.

The wooded holes are all in the 200' and semi-technical in challenge. There is always a fair route to the basket. Some elevation comes in to play.

Starting with # 6 you break out into ore open area. This part of the course is grassy with patches of trees and bushes to throw around. A couple of these holes have a little bit more personality and require some shaping skill. An example is # 16. It's just a little 235' hyser but you need to hit the gap. Then # 17 is a 225' but requires you thread the needle.

Navigation is easy and intuitive.

The grass was in need of a mowing. It was damp this AM and my feet got wet and stayed wet for three more courses today.

The course is recreational in both skill and challenge. Better players won't find much challenge here.

Lacks the wow factor. No signature hole.

I could enjoy having this as my home course. It's a pretty nice course for an aging course bagger such as myself. Most recreational players will find challenge here. Intermediate and advanced players may wish to go elsewhere to get their disc golf fix. I don't think Kenilworth quite measures up for those types.

The road less traveled. I've played K-worth half a dozen times and only once did I get stuck behind a group.

For a par 3 course the holes have nice variety of distance, elevation, and line. From a 160' hole to a 390' hole, you'll get to use more discs than you would on most par 3 courses.

The first 6 holes are nice and secluded so you can better "prepare" for the last 12.

Some forested holes have multiple approach options, and I had fun skying my disc a few times for a nice birdie chance.

It can get a little mundane with 10 non-wooded holes in a row, but at least there's a couple dog-legs and hills to keep it interesting.

It's a little too easy out in the field making pars mostly free.

It's a fun course to frequent.
Good chances for aces.
Prob won't lose any discs.
There's a baseball field for practicing right at the parking lot.

It's not a great course but for a par 3 it has a lot to offer.

The course is on a nice property, with decent parking lot and portable bathroom at the lot. There are 18 holes. The first 5 holes are short woods holes, the rest is more open with some small elevation changes and varying shots required. Hole 9 was a memorable tee shot being about 400 ft downhill with the basket fading off to the right.

Once you actually find hole 1, good signage and concrete tee boxes.

This course is very short; most of my tee shots were mids and putters. The signage is good from hole to hole (and there are next tee arrows on the signs), but I had a little trouble finding the right parking lot, and then finding hole 1. There are directions in the DGCR, but I got distracted by a stray basket off to the left when you enter near the lot; presumably a practice basket. The tee pads are on the shorter side, limiting an adequate run up. I played in spring after some rainfall, and the course was very very muddy and drainage on the course was an issue (even in the open portions). Course flows from basket to next tee pretty good, with just a minor walk to and from the lot. Layout does have holes close together with minor overlap; if there were multiple groups of golfers, stray shots could be a safety issue.

All in all, a nice short course. Would love to see more wooded holes, but for the property its used pretty well. As mentioned above, I liked hole 9 where I was able to air out a couple throws after some shorter tee shots.

Decent beginner to intermediate layout that is friendly for all skill levels. Pros are collecting birdies like Pokemon out there, while novices aren't discourages, as there aren't many obstacles after the first few holes. It's a nice park and property. Over time, if the make long tees and/or more protected basket positions, this course has some good potential. This is a great place to teach someone the sport, while still representing the sport somewhat accurately.

A lot of open shot with few obstacles through the middle of the course. Making the course more difficult over time would be a great addition to the area, as Boyertown is also easy. A harder Kenilworth would pair nicely with Sankanac not too far away. This is worth playing if you're in the area, but not a travel destination course.

The first 6 holes are really nice. Holes 1-5 are all short, semi-technical woods holes with different shot shapes. Definitely the defining part of the round, as they are all birdie-friendly holes, but enough going on where you can fail to convert quite easily. Hole 6 is the first open shot, a nice left to right to avoid a big tree grouping in the center/right of fairway. Hole 7 is a 125. ft. downhill freebie....filler hole, pretty much a par 2. 8 is a relatively open uphill shot, somewhat hard to reach off the tee and some dense growth right of the basket to watch out for. Hole 9 is probably the signature hole, a longer downhill right turning shot. Despite the distance, you're better off throwing a mid-range turnover and letting gravity do the work. Hole 10 is slightly easier version of hole 8, a straight uphill field shot. Hole 11 is the mini version of hole 9, slight turnover downhill putter shot, definitely one you want to deuce. Hole 12 is the toughest hole here (if you're playing everything as par 3, which you should), a long uphill hole with trees on the right and big dense bushes left of the basket, hard to reach off the tee without some risk of finishing in those bushes. Hole 13 is a straight slightly downhill open shot, gotta get your 2. Hole 14 is a tricky narrow low ceiling gap that seems like it should be cake, but proves a little tougher unless you get your disc selection right. Hole 15 is the uphill version of hole 13, a straight open shot. Hole 16 is a neat mass spike hyzer around a big island of trees protecting the basket really well...the straight line to the pin isn't far and it's slightly downhill, but you need some power to get that big hyzer with a Gator or another overstable disc. Hole 17 is a short tunnel shot with a left finish, only trouble if you don't have 200 ft. on a straight line before fade. Hole 18 is a medium range smooth left to right open shot to finish.

This course is on the shorter side. Great for beginners and good for advanced players to work on their short game. Even though the course is shorter there are still some very well thought out holes. You will need a variety of shots to navigate this course. Concrete pads are nice size. Tee signs on every hole and arrows to next tee under each basket.

There are a few open holes where you could possible throw towards the wrong basket.

- Shorter course; smaller arms will love this course
- great upkeep
- concrete pads
- great signage
- easy to follow course layout

- shorter course; not too many opportunities to open it up

Don't have too many bad things to say about this course. It's a great local course and much less crowded than Sedgley, etc. I would recommend this course to anyone in the area, fun little course with some tricky holes.

VERY beginner friendly
Huge map by hole 1
Concrete tee pads
Good signage including 'next tee' arrows on every basket
Variety of wooded and open holes
Practice basket near the parking lot (on the opposite side of the lake from the course)

Might have been the muddiest round (course?) I've ever played.
1's and 4's tee boxes are close and in griplock/early release/tree ricochet lines

This is a fun little course that would make a great place to introduce new players to the game. It has wooded shots, open shots, hyzers, anhyzers, uphills, downhills and even a straight shot or two. There is as much disc golf as possible packed into this little piece of property without sacrificing safety other than where the tee boxes for holes 1 and 4 line up. An errant throw or early tree can send a disc full speed at the other pad leaving little time to react. My drive from 4 landed on 1. There were a couple of places where I felt like I was getting too close to the houses but as soon as I would start to think that, the course had me turning my back on them and throwing in the opposite direction.
Looking at the pictures on here and then playing the course shows a lot of recent work having been done. All of the tee pads were upgraded to concrete. From the looks of it, they drove heavy equipment along the wooded fairways, perhaps to pour the pads. The fairways are wider than they look in the pictures and any trees that were in the actual fairways are now gone. The work was probably recent as there was hay and sprouting grass seed. Because it's late February, the ground is still frozen so there's not much drainage but frequent rains and warm days have turned the woods fairways into sloppy mud slicks. My duck boots were sinking as much as 3 or 4 inches before getting down to the frozen layer. None of the grassy holes (6-18) on the hillside looked wet or muddy, but much of it was like walking on a floating carpet. Hopefully the wooded fairways will mature and the grassy hillside is dry most of the year.

There's nothing overly challenging here (hence the noob friendly), the longest hole is 395 and it's a downhill that even us noodle arms can reach. What there is here is a lot of fun and a chance to score well. I came here on my way home from French Creek so I really appreciated the opportunity to air it out a little, have some ace runs, including a beauty of a sky annie on 11 that spiked in 3' in front of the basket, and card a pile of birdies. With all but 4 of the holes playing 250 or under, this might be a putter course for higher level players, probably nothing faster than a mid. required.

The course is well thought out though, taking advantage of what the property had to offer. Many of the baskets are tucked into or next to the little patches of trees dotting the field, nothing gimicky or silly, just things that make the throws more interesting. 11's sky annie at a guarded basket, for example or the even bigger anhyzer throw on 12 because you're throwing around trees at the tee as well as up by the basket. 14 is a doorway shot through a wall of trees 1/3 of the way to the basket.

Overall this is just a fun little course to play. Newer players will appreciate the wide fairways in the woods and open field throws, more advanced players will probably enjoy the variety of upshot practice and us bottom/middle of the pack players have a great chance to card that elusive sub par round on what looks and feels just like a real course (I jest). I will absolutely be back to Kenilworth!

-New concrete teepads at all the holes (Couldn't find a couple in the deep snow, but I assume they are there somewhere).

-Good signage at every hole.

-Good use of the limited trees and bushes. They made a very wide open course challenging and interesting.

-It is a little bit of a walk from the course to parking lot. Not too far, but just enough that it would be a bother if you forgot something in the car.

-There are some thorns if you end up in the tree groves.

This is a great course if you wanted to play a short round, or if you wanted to try the sport for the first time. Most of the holes are just a little over 200 feet, which is just right for new players. The first 5 holes are in the woods, after that you are in a field for the rest dotted with groups of trees. The Basket placement in and around the trees makes this short course interesting and fun. There are very few wide open, big dumb hyzer holes. With the new teepads, signage, Discatcher baskets, and excelent use of a small space, I can't think of any negatives for this course.

18 hole par 3 course with nice concrete teepads and easy to see DIScatcher baskets. Course starts out tighter for the first handful of holes before opening up into a field with pockets of trees here and there. Decent mix of lefty and righty holes and some elevation change as well. There is potential to have some really low scoring rounds with clean drives and solid putting. Tee signs are nice and (mostly) accurate. Navigation is pretty easy with arrows below the bottom of the basket to point the way. Grass short enough to get down a roller if you so like.

Some of the open holes leave you looking at two baskets with no clarity as to which basket you're throwing at. Nine might be the best example. Both baskets look to be similar in length, one straight and one slightly right, and the tee sign says the hole is straight (when the basket to the right is the one you are throwing). Tees do collect water and get hard to brush off. Not a true con, but there is no real signature hole here. They were putting in a PVC pipe on four when I played, so that hole is all torn up (it's playable, but really muddy down the fairway, just to note).

It's no destination course, but if you're looking for short game work, or something to warm you up for, say French Creek, then Kenilworth is what you want. Good job to whoever designed it in utilizing some land. Also, be considerate of the neighbors that border the course.

The first 4 holes are great gentle putter lines that require some precision to birdie.

Nice baskets.

Teepads are a bit small and gravel. Not very well maintained, most teepads had big dips in them where people had planted their release foot. Some pads had a little mini rubber pad at the end which prevented that.

The signage was remarkably confusing for such a small course. 3 times I threw at the wrong basket on my first round.

Holes 5-15 were mostly boring open field shots. Only about 3 of them actually require a driver. Mostly putter shots an some mid ranges. Even the par 4's were very easy. I got 2 eagles on my 2nd round..

Many of the holes are really close to houses, that will probably cause issues if the course gets really popular as nobody wants degenerate disc golfers in their back yard.

Good course to work on putter drives and up shots. It's basically miniature golf, but without the excitement of a windmill hole.

This is an ace race course if I've ever played one. Front five are very tight and technical wooded shots. The rest of the course includes a number a varying field shots. Its a fun course that isn't very demanding physically to play. Great for beginners learning how to achieve distance accuracy.

Lots of spots on the sides of the fairways that make it easy to loose a disc or get caught up in briar patches

I currently have holes #3 #13 & #15 aced. My current par score for this course is -12. Anyone top that yet?
The par for this course is very forgiving. Its a 58 (four fours) but really should just be a straight three average course.

- Some challenging shots
- Good to work on your midranges and putters
- Fun little course

- Teepads are well beat in, uneven on some. Some have a mix of rocks and dirt
- Middle of the course can be a little bit confusing on what basket is for which tee

**** Since this review the course has installed concrete teepads.

Played this with someone who was experienced at playing here, so navigation wasn't that much of an issue.

From my understanding, this is a boy scout troop built course. Some very short holes at the start, that open up to some longer shots on the later holes.

It was very enjoyable round, good course to test your short game. Will be back to play again.

Even without a map, fairly easy to navigate, assuming you pay attention to the "next tee" information at the current tee, and the surveyor tape at the bottom of the baskets is still there.

Single tee/basket. While the tees are framed by wood, they're still natural, and can pose as a bit of a tripping hazard.

From the tee, at times you'll see several baskets - make sure you play to the correct one!

Don't let the first five holes fool you into thinking you're playing an entirely wooded course. These first few holes are all short (225' or less), have been carved out of a dense (smaller tree) wooded area, and are primary straight tunnels requiring a turn or fade at the end.

The remainder of the course is located in what can best be described as a large, open, grassy field, with a slight slope to it, and bordered by a combination of trees (mostly), back lawns of houses (somewhat), and a pond (minimally). Then, take a mixture of hardwoods, evergreens, and bushes, and combine them into pockets, with footprints ranging from a small shed to a large house, and scatter them across the open field. These thirteen holes, while longer than the first five, are not overly long (I rarely used a distance driver), and play up/down/across the slope, around and/or between the scattered copses of trees/brush. Right-turners are certainly more common than lefties, although the sharpest-turning hole is #16, a spike-hyzing lefty (too short, find a dense copse of trees, too long and find the pond).

A very solid course, with decent variety, considering the relatively small area it is set upon.

Nice beginner friendly course, mostly open, good deuce challenge for more experienced players. The off-fairway rough is not bad in most areas of the course. The course is in pretty good shape for being so new. The course map helps to navigate through the course and hole layout for first timers.

Some thick rough and poison ivy near some fairways but only in limited areas. On some holes, the course map has a better hole layout than the tee signs.

Could use signs from parking area to hole-1 tee

Each hole has brand new baskets and nice gravel tee boxes. The course makes good use of the land available and is well designed. It is located away from the pedestrian travel in the park. On one hole, a pond filled with snapping turtles is even in play. Many holes have the potential to be aced. One of the players in my group hit the basket on hole 18.

As of late July 2014, about 3/4 of the holes have maps and next tee locations at the tee boxes. Even with this said the course was still relatively easy to navigate. Dense vegetation is in play on several holes.

The course is only a few weeks old as of July 2014. The vegetation is very thick off of the narrow fairways for the first few holes in the woods. If you don't want to loose a disc, make sure you mark its landing location well. After the first four or so holes, the course opens up substantially with the remaining holes playing through a large grass field with "islands" of trees in play. Brush is only in play on a few of the remaining holes. However, when my friends and I played the course, a group of players warned us about a bee's nest located on hole 14. The group had thrown their tee shots and went to look for their discs in the brush. One of them must have disturbed a nest along the way, because they each got stung multiple times while fleeing the hole.

The course will be much more enjoyable as the brush thins out from more people playing. The course has great potential and is an excellent addition to the courses already in the area. I plan on updating my review as I play the course again.
