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
Wayne, stop picking on me
I was on my cart way moving mybag tp up there after 18th hole, Wayne blocked me and yelled me to get off my cart. He told me i should drag my golfbag all the way up on my own I paid $22 for cart and i can use my cart like just everyone use their cart to move their golfbag up. I told Wayne not to be jerk on me but he told that exactly “i do not care what you think about me and i’ll keep doing it”. What an Ashole!!! Wayne, stop haressing me!!
Wayne never do that to white guys but i am an asian old wowan. I’ve done nothing wrong and i have very good relations with other staffs except Wayme.
Wayne is working on Thursdays. Be careful if u have a schedule to go there on Thursday
Over booked
Love the course and the staff. Course was completely overbooked. Very slow play.
Wayne is the worst ashole.
Wayne ( i asked his name) threw me under the bus. He accused me what i didn’t do it.( I think he just accused me because i am an asian woman). After i explained about what i didn’t do that , i asked him an apology. But let alone he appoliseze me , he lied me and made up a story to throw me under the bus again. He is the worst ashhole.
Enjoyed the course
Visiting from out of town, we tried out several value courses in the NYC area with strong reviews. The good: The mid-summer course conditions were great. Good tee boxes, true greens. Many nice holes placing a premium on accuracy, not distance, but there are some longer par 3's.
The bad: It's a very tight track and it was not uncommon for other players to be searching for their ball nearby fairways...balls regularly landed near us or were heard hitting nearby trees...it's combat out there. For us, it meant the pace of play was very slow.
I recommend the course but would advise playing mid-week, or very early to avoid the slower pace.
Pace of play poor
Overall course conditions terrific. Unfortunately pace of play was horrible (5.5 hrs for 18 holes). Didn't see a Marshall to speed up play the whole time...
Sometimes the bear eats you
While the course was in good shape and the staff was friendly, we got stuck behind a youth group. Sometimes you just have to deal with it to allow our use to participate and learn the game. Overall it was a good day. Happy to see the kids enjoying our game.
B-
Tee boxes could be in better shape and softer, the course is definitely challenging it’s very compact and unforgiving if you can’t keep every shot straight, the greens look and feel nice I had trouble reading them,
