KENSINGTON AMENITIES
Golf is a major part of the Kensington club experience, centered around an 18-hole Robert Trent Jones Jr.-designed championship course that is notable for its walkability. The golf facilities also include a driving range, putting and short-game practice areas, professional instruction, golf shop and organized golf programs for members.
The 38,000-square-foot clubhouse serves as the club's social and dining center, with indoor and outdoor dining, bar and lounge areas, locker rooms, gathering spaces and facilities for private and club events. Multiple dining environments allow members to choose between more traditional clubhouse dining and relaxed outdoor options overlooking the golf setting.
Kensington also offers a substantial fitness and wellness program with a fitness center, Pilates facilities and spa treatment rooms. The resort-style swimming pool includes zero-entry access, lap lanes, cabanas and generous lounging areas, creating a setting designed for both exercise and relaxation.
Court sports are another significant component of the club lifestyle, with seven Har-Tru tennis courts, six pickleball courts and bocce. Professional instruction, clinics, leagues and organized play provide options for both recreational and competitive players.
Beyond the physical amenities, Kensington maintains an active social calendar with dining events, cards, clubs, fitness programming, tournaments and other organized activities. This allows members to make the club experience as golf-focused, recreational or social as they prefer.
