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
Please fix your website
The course's website offers a shuttle from the Staten Island ferry to the course. An important feature for a city where most people don't own cars. Also an incentive for Manhattanites to play the course.
So, it's distressing to get to the ferry, call the course for a pick up, and be told that "there is no shuttle today." Then, person at the desk does not know what bus to take or the price of cab fare.
Gratefully, the NYMTA website provided bus information and the helpful bus driver confirmed the bus stopped at the course, after a brief ride.
The website should indicate when the shuttle isn't running and provide information for public transportation for when it isn't.
Other than that, it was a great afternoon of golf.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Wayne! Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Silver Lake Golf Course thanks you!
Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon at Silver Lake Golf Course!

joined by enjoyable stranger. early arrivals ( 15 minutes or more ) must wait for exact booking time even if course is empty. Greens are very good condition. Lots of leaves due to fall conditions.

Good conditions despite the weather and aeration
Its been a very dry September and the conditions are very good considering the weather. The greens have been aerated, some today, but the greens are in terrific shape and are very fast! Perfect golfing weather today! The Hot Deal was a bargain!

Silver Lake GC
Fun course but more needs to be done to speed up play. There were a bunch of imbeciles in front of us shouting and screaming the whole way round and they left beer cans at the tee box on every other hole. There was no starter or course ranger to deal with it. They brought the whole class of the place down. Otherwise, greens were in decent condition and course was well manicured for the price. The bus picking you up from Staten Island ferry is a great service but Paige the beer girl is the highlight of the course!

A really good day
My experience at Silver Lake was excellant. The course was in very good shape. There was plenty of fresh water available, which was important because it was a warm day.
Thank you for your kind words! The team here is thrilled that you enjoyed your round! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Silver Lake Golf Course!
Staten Island's Gem!
Course is always in great shape. Greens are quick, but not too quick. Pace moves along quite nice as well. Challenging course but not overly difficult. Has been my go-to this year as opposed to the other courses on the island that are not in the shape that Silver Lake is in.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Silver Lake Golf Course!
