Greens getting better
The greens are recovering from the July 4 burning. Fairways and rough have a lot of weeds and go without mowing for long periods of time. I lost five balls near the fairway in the rough because the roof is too long.
Do they own a lawnmower?
Bring a dozen golf balls and a weed wacker! The owners of this course should be ashamed of themselves, horrible fairways, hard sand and weeds in traps, overgrown grass throughout entire course. The only bright spot was that most greens were in good shape. Paid $16.00 on GolfNow and that was to much! This is a very busy golf course and as long as people are willing to pay, their just gonna keep pocketing the money and letting the course go to crap.
We are sorry to hear about your experience at our golf course. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the condition of the fairways, sand traps, and overgrown grass. We appreciate your feedback and will make every effort to improve. Thank you for taking the time to review our business.
Going down hill
I have played Silverthorn for years but in the last year it has gone down hill.
The bunkers all look like waste bunkers, the fairways are turning non-existent with huge weed clumps and bare spots and to make it worse the place does not look like they've cut the grass in 2 months.
We apologize for the decline in the course conditions that you experienced at Silverthorn. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and we will make sure to address these issues to improve the overall experience for our customers. Thank you for your continued support.
Still marginal
Some marginal improvement in the course since we played last week, however, rough is knee high, tee boxes are bare, and fairways have tufts of weeds and large bare spots. It’s going to take a lot of work to get things back where they were a couple of years ago.
We apologize for the condition of the course during your recent visit. We appreciate your feedback and will work hard to address these issues and improve the overall quality of our facilities. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Greens good, fairways are terrible ,sand traps are terrible , tee box suck.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize if your experience with our fairways, sand traps, and tee boxes was not up to your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration for future improvements.
Course is coming back
Nice now with the mowing the fairways. Out in the rough & its tall weeds. A challenge as usual & still a joy to play.
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 Silverthorn Country Club.
We're glad you enjoyed your 5-star experience with us. Please comment or reach out to our team in the golf shop to let us know more about your round at Silverthorn Country Club!
First Time at Silverthorn
First time playing this course. Close to my house and had guest so we were looking for something close. Price was reasonable and easy to book. Staff was very friendly and got us our cart super quick and on the course. Has a little rain but to be expected. Course has some rough places with no grass on one of the tees. Been drought conditions in the area which could explain that. No one behind us until we got to 16, then all of a sudden we had 3 older ladies in golf carts playing into us. They didn't play 17 and passed us on the cart path while we were taking our shots on the fairway, then we had to hold up and wait for them on 18. They seemed to be in a bigger rush than us and didn't seem too concerned with course etiquette. I'll play the course again since it's close and all in had a good day, but the ending left a bad impression.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the rough areas on the course and the behavior of other golfers towards the end of your round. We appreciate your understanding and hope you will give us another chance to provide you with a great experience.
This my second review.
Again, for the most part, an excellent golf course, but for some reason, the staff is very unfriendly and stuck up. We got there about a half hour early and the pro shop staff member was not at counter, no big deal, but when we went looking for him, he was complaining that we were too early and that he was drinking his drink, he looked very upset. We gave him the greeting of the day about four times and he would not respond. On the fifth one he finally got the point, and said good morning grudgingly. This definitely is not a way to treat customers. This is my second time playing there and have gotten unfriendly attitudes on both occasions. Can't figure out why.
We apologize for the unfriendly attitude you encountered from our staff member during your visit to our golf course. We appreciate your feedback and will address this issue to ensure it does not happen again in the future. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Excellent Golf Course
Obviously one of the best courses I have been too. Of course Arnold Palmer was the first player and opener of the course. That says it all. There is a plaque outside stating this. Very impressive. On the other hand, I thought the staff, especially the cart team was a little snotty, they might of had a bad day. 😆 other than that it was great to play there. Note: quite a lot of sand traps! Very challenging.
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 Silverthorn Country Club.
Poor condition
Fairways poor shape, a patch of green here n there as are tee boxs. All greens had issues. Price cheap but.....

Wasted effort with the greens.
Time was spent to aerate and make the greens very good. Unfortunately the week of 4th of July they let it burn up. It’s truly sad to see. Just water the greens and course management.

Deteriorating
Course to include tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens have deteriorated over the past 6-9 months. This is too bad as the course has a nice layout and was previously in much better condition.

Decent Course for under 30 bucks
Two weeks ago the course was in much better condition. Played Thursday July 6th and the greens are sun burnt, fairways have a lot of crabgrass, and the rough is foot tall grass making it hard to find your ball. The layout of the course is awesome. As long as the price is under 30 bucks i’ll play here.

review
While we got an excellent time ( 7:48 am ) and the price was only $22 ( prior to our discount ), we were disappointed with the conditions....the fairways were terrible....weeds and no grass everywhere.....the rough was in worse condition....the greens needed attention too....Over-all, we wondered if they were selling the property .....we won't be returning there again until we read that major improvements have been made.....
Hello, peterdelpietro99. Thank you for visiting us at Silverthorn Country Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Was expecting a little more
Nice layout but fairways were in very poor condirion and greens a little shaggy. Can see it used to be very nice but does not look like it has been kept up in recent years.

Overbooked by a long shot.
So I booked on GolfNow for 10:20 am and there were 3 others with a 10:20am tee time. We finally started over an hour late. The groups were so slow that it took 2:45 minutes to complete nine holes. We gave up and went home at the turn. Not a good experience and the course was not in good condition. I hit a perfect shot in the middle of the fairway on one hole and ended up resting on a large weed. There were weeds in sand traps as well. Just no excuse not to take care of the course

Don't Bother To Play
All fairways were uncut, bald and brown.Forget being off the fairway as the grass was over 1ft tall.Greens were poor with ALL bunkers having large weeds and grass clumps in them.Probably the worst course in the local area I have tried.We paid for 18, however came off after 9.

The response they gave to you is a bold faced lie.I played a week later and the course is horrid. They have done nothing to improve the roughs. .
