Silver Lake Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Great conditions
Pace was a tad slow but the starter sent us off the front nine again and we didn't wait much after that. Greens rolled more like August than December. Grounds crew doing a great job and friendly staff, can't complain about Winter golf.

I forgot to ask . . . .
Where did you import the wild turkeys from ? I do not remember seeing them on the course previously . It was nice to see near #6 hole. .
Hi Curtis4737853, thanks for visiting our course! The wild turkeys have been in Silver Lake Park and the reservoir for a few years now, but they just realized the grass is greener at Silver Lake Golf Course! We don’t mind because they have no adverse affects to the turf. We are so happy you liked it!

Ok
5 hour round. No help from “player assistants/rangers” in keeping pace up.
Greens and tee boxes in great shape.
Layout really not bad.
If it wasn’t for a 30 min wait on the 13th tee I’d say it was enjoyable. In that area several holes are next to each other and players from all of them were hitting from parallel fairways which really slowed things down. A lot of inexperienced and inefficient golfers were on the course.
You may have better luck on a weekday.

Good course but poor pace of play
Meant to tee off at 7:20am, ended up being 7:25am. No biggie. But then to have a 5 hour round, ridiculous
Locals and Americans need to improve pace of play. A round should be no longer then 4hr 20mins, max

I have been playing Silver Lake for the past several years.. Doug and his crew do an excellent job in maintaining the course.
The fairways are well maintained and the greens are always free of debris.
We have never had difficulty booking a tee time.
Pat(in the trailer) does an excellent job sending golfers out. She is efficient and courteous
We look forward to playing at “the Lake”

The course is kept in good shape!

Weekend play
$60 without cart, $20 for cart seems avg price on ok to good courses.
Conditions were good. It’s fall so plenty of leaves on ground, could use a clean up.
Only complaint is pace of play.
9am tee time, started about 935, had about a 5:35min round. Very slow pace of play and No ranger enforcing pace.
Besides that, not bad for a course outside of LI.
