Located in the heart of the beautiful Annapolis Valley, Ken-Wo Golf Club was formed in 1921. This member-owned course has been welcoming guests to its championship location for years and continues to be recognized as one of the friendliest places to play in the Maritimes. Being one of the oldest clubs in Nova Scotia, Ken-Wo boasts a challenging 18-hole layout over 6,300 yards. In recent years, the club has played host to the Canadian Women's Amateur Championship, recognizing its reputation as a challenging course. Each season Ken-Wo hosts the annual Apple Blossom Invitational in May, a tournament that attracts several of the Provinces top male amateurs. Ken-Wo has a course rating of 69.7 and a slope of 127. The Club also provides a fully stocked Pro Shop, three practice putting and chipping greens, a driving range, as well as power cart and club rentals. The Club is led by PGA of Canada Director of Golf and Operations, Mr. Rene MacKay. The immaculately groomed and tree-lined traditional layout is maintained by Golf Course Superintendent, Rick Phelan and his Assistant Brian Bartkow. The original course consisted of 6-holes in 1921 and by 1924, a 9-hole course was in operation. Ken-Wo grew to an 18-hole course in 1964 and now plays host to approximately 35,000 rounds annually. The full service and fully air-conditioned clubhouse, including our recently renovated and newly furnished Dining Room and Bar as well as "The Turn" Canteen located on the ground floor, is led by our friendly Food & Beverage Team. Ken-Wo Golf Club prides itself on delivering golfers of all levels a very welcoming and enjoyable experience. It has been recognized by the golfing community as "a must-play in the Maritimes" for many years.
