I played in the Member/Guest golf tournament last year and the course was fantastic. The golf shop employees were as kind as could be and catered to all players with a smile on their face. The food was very good at the dinner Saturday evening and the members made all the guests feel welcome. My favorite part was watching all of the young families at the pool enjoying beautiful summer days with their children. This club is perfect for a young family that likes to golf and meet other people in their same position in life. I'm returning to play in this years event and looking forward to it very much.

I have been a member of Kinsale for four years and I would strongly discourage families with children from joining. On two separate occasions during the summer of 2013, the Powell police were called to the Kinsale pool on a crowded family weekend to break up fights between golf members. On another occasion, men became verbally abusive to one another shouting obscenities across the pool while children looked on. Management said all the right things in response to the pool incidents but did not follow through. The President of Marquee Group, is unresponsive to complaints and concerns of the existing membership. He has little interest in working toward increasing the satisfaction and service for the existing members. The group of members on the Founders Board are little more than hand picked individuals with no real voice for betterment and change. There is no consistency in the application of club policies and the rules. Although the club has an unaccompanied child policy, it is rarely enforced. There are unattended children in the workout areas, in the locker room lounges, and golf cart staging area. It's just a matter of time before a child is seriously injured. The lack of enforcement of basic club policies designed for both the enjoyment of all members and the safety of children is unacceptable. Proactive and positive management could really help this club shine. It is unfortunate that Kinsale has fallen so much, as it used to be a wonderful family club. This is not a respectable environment for families and children. Ask about member satisfaction and retention, look at the Powell Police reports and then look elsewhere.

Our family joined Kinsale with a social membership upon moving to Powell in 2013. We have been so happy with our membership. The club is pristine. We workout there several times a week, eat at the Grille, swim in the summer and our children love the Kids Club. The staff is always friendly and helpful and many of them know us by name. Could not ask for more in a club. It's a home away from home.

I played 18 last Saturday and had an excellent time. The course was in great condition and the staff was accommodating and helpful. Our group had time to play and it felt like we had the golf course to ourselves. I didn't hang around the clubhouse but from what I could see, the pool seemed fun and the restaurant/bar overlooking the 18th green looked inviting.

Played my first round of 18 and would give the experience a thumbs up! Pros: A beautiful course! (Particularly the front 9) Challenging throughout, well kept with true greens and nice fairways. The staff was excellent and friendly and the overall look and feel was that of a nice family oriented country club. Cons: It's a family oriented country club. The pool which looks like a blast. Is right near the clubhouse and within earshot of the 18th green. Also the back nine is surrounded by homes on all 4 sides. so there isn't much room for slices and hooks off the tee lest you want to pay for some damage to a home. Also there are a lot of kids in the neighborhood which can be distracting. Overall a lot of fun and I will be back!
