Kernwood Country Club was a hidden gem that we found after searching the web! It's a private club but offer outside member events. The event team at Kernwood was beyond dedicated to making sure we had the wedding of our dreams. They went above and beyond to making sure we were happy and relaxed on the big day. The food was fantastic and hot when served and we were welcome to see the venue for any of our needs prior to the wedding.

If you work and live in the North Shore you should put this Gem on your list of possible membership options...The people and the staff are top notch...so nice and surprisingly welcoming to anyone...The course is a fair test as well... You'll be shocked by the value pound for pound at any other club!

Played here a few times and can't say enough about it, Meticulously maintained, great water side holes with amazing views, and the members are outstanding. Oh yeah and the golf is an experience in itself.

If you go to this country club I would not eat the food the servers go back and pick at people food !! not only do the servers do it the GM does it to ! No gloves on, picking at peoples food the help inspector needs to shut these people down !! Especially the GM She just goes back to the Kitchen and touches all the food !! God knows where their hands were touching before this And now she touch food without gloves or washing her hands !! They fired the head chef because he was trying to put a stop to this !! Very unacceptable wouldn’t recommend this country club to anybody !!
