Silver Lake Golf Course sits along Staten Island's North Shore, offering a scenic and challenging layout that is one of the five boroughs' best-kept secrets. The course has a classic layout with postage stamp-sized greens and narrow fairways. At just over 6,000 yards from the back tees, the golf course appears shorter than it plays. The tight layout demands accuracy throughout especially on the lengthier holes, of which there are several. The course offers interesting risk-reward opportunities and holes 12 through 14 are considered by locals the "Amen Corner" of the North. The entire layout will test your shot-making abilities. In addition to the challenging round, Silver Lake is known for having consistently excellent conditions with some of New York's best greens, which is why it has garnered a strong following among local players.

Worth the Trip

Great course to play if you are looking for a nice ferry ride from Manhattan on a warm day! Short cab ride to the course from the ferry terminal. Greens always seem to be in great shape here and run fast. Some holes are a BIT close to each other which can lead to a lot of crossover between groups and shouts of "FORE" while playing. Pace of play can be slow because of this but seems to clear up in certain areas, especially toward the end of the round. Worth the trip to check it out!

Rain golf in Statten Island

Had a great round of Rain Golf. Course did play longer, because of the wet conditions. The tee boxes and the greens were good, the fairways are excellent. The course is a bit up and down, but that is the fun to play. The breakfast at the clubhouse was great. There isn't any range to warm up though.

Home away from home

Amazingly friendly staff. Totally felt like home. Course was in great shape and I had a blast. Tee box to green was nearly immaculate and consistent on every hole!

Nothing special

Knew what I was getting myself into. Typical Staten Island course. Course is run poorly. They let singles go out one after another. One dude was so high I’m pretty sure he’s still laying out on 15 fairway. Wish they would manage the course like jersey

Upset with staff

I was upset as I was a single playing with a group of 3 and was forced to ride with the single person from that group. I have been to countless of courses and even at silver lake as well where I have been able to ride by myself. I love the course but that rule and staff memeber was not very pleasant
