About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Worst course
The worst place ever. Lady checking us in was super rude and clueless.
Teed off an hour late. Everyhole is on top of each other, almost got hit couple of time from next hole over. I dont know why it has 4 stars, I would give negative if I could.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Silver Lake Golf Course.
Course in great shape
Great day golfing. Course in very good shape

Great Course!
This was a hidden gem for us. Just a few minutes away from Bayonne. Well maintained, friendly staff and absolutely loved their outdoor grill! Can’t wait to visit again soon Thanks for a great experience!

First time at Silver Lake
Overall this was a good course. The pace of play was exceptionally slow, but had a good time regardless. Definitely have to be careful of cross play from other tee boxes into your fairway and vice versa. On at least five of the holes I had a ball land within 15 yards of my game.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Silver Lake Golf Course.
ONLY GOOD PUBLIC COURSE ON STATEN ISLAND
Thank you for keeping this place in great shape and not using covid as an excuse to let the place go to crap like others. Played at south shore today and it was complete GARBAGE. latourette, I drove past and actually laughed at how terrible of condition it was in. DO NOT PLAY ANYWHERE ELSE ON STATEN ISLAND BECIDES SILVER LAKE. YOU WILL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED.
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Silver Lake Golf Course!
Great friendly staff and nice course
The staff was very friendly and nice. Each cart is cleaned nicely after each round. We saw the starter cleaning a cart and then he gave that cart to us which was great. The pace was very good. Front 9 are better than the back nine. The back nine has too many water issues. Lots of muddy spots. It was probably intensified due to rain last night. They need to rope off certain areas from cart access which was not done and made it worse. It definitely is in much better shape than the other two courses on Staten Island. It is well maintained other than the water issue which is hard to control especially if streams are running through the property. I would play it again but not after a night of heavy rain. Outdoor food and drink service was available too

Always a good time.
Silverlake course has been in good condition during this pandemic.. unfortunately I had to pay for my 3 some at the course. Because I asked to be credited for 1 member who had to cancel last minute. And I stated that to the online helper. And he cancelled the whole foursome. And it seems that I wasn’t credited the amount?.. Not happy with GolfNow... I’ll have to try and contact them via call, or online support..

OVERPRICED
PAYING $70 IS WAY TOO MUCH CONSIDERING THERE ARE NUMEROUS COURSES WITHING 45 MINUTES FROM WHERE I LIVE CHARGING $30-$50. IN ADDITION, THERE ARE NO LONGER SENIOR RATES AVAILABLE. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH SEVERAL FRIENDS WITH WHOM i GOLF, AND WE ALL AGREE THAT WE WILL NOT BE PLAYING AT THE LAKE UNTIL PRICES ARE REDUCED AND SENIOR RATES RETURN.

Mixed bag
The course conditions were fair but the layout is pretty good and made for a fun day. The amenities don’t make a great first impression but it’s a good value if you live nearby. We did stay and have a hamburger on the veranda after the round and it was excellent with a pretty good view around sunset. Overall satisfied.
