Silver Lake Golf Course

Green fast when I played, fair everything else definitely best course on island

Course conditions were fair at best, aerated greens with too much sand, I could drive with less potholes in Beirut than the cart paths which seems to get worse each passing year Hiw about some effort into the putting green and how about trying to figure out some kind of a hitting net area for warm up On a positive note, the carts were very nice To charge full value for this course in its current condition is ridiculous, it’s convenient for me but not much else, cross the tiver to NJ for much better value

The Lake never disappoints! The best public course in the 5 Boro’s!

Fun course, tight fairways, some decent greens but looks like they were recently punched which is fine. Lots of hills, I walked it but had a light bag so it wasn’t too bad. Overall good time.

If you love playing golf for 8 hours this place is for you. The staff and rangers are pathetic. No one adheres to t times. I showed up for an 836 t time at 745. People with 9 am and later were already lined up in front of me. Pace of play is 5 hours minimum. I’ve even seen groups of 5 playing. For the price of this course it’s actually pathetic and it’s run horribly. You can’t enjoy a 4 hour round here because it’s impossible. I’d rather drive to Jersey where pace of play and a t time actually means something.

This is a great golf course. Don’t get the burgers though. Smell good on the grill but taste terrible.

Went out to play on a Sunday afternoon and left after 5 hours having only played 13 holes. Course is way over booked and there was no ranger in sight to help keep things moving.

Have been playing here for over 30 years. Course layout is nice, conditions are usually the best of the three public courses on the Island, and pace of play is average. Recently rangers have been out to help improve pace, especially on 4 and 5, but they need to be more attentive to getting slow players to pick up their pace. A few areas of the cart paths are in poor shape and need repair. The staff are all very friendly and helpful at all times, and I always have a nice day when I play there. Some of the greens are very interesting and challenging, especially when they have been nicely cut and rolled. #18 is the best finishing hole on the island, and becomes a real challenge if the wind is in your face. My suggestions for changes should some real $$$ become available: lengthen #9 to a somewhat short par 5, and clean out the pond on #11, add a bunker or two in front and make it a nice signature hole. Just sayin’. Thanks for all of the many good times I’ve had there over the years!!!
