SLOW PLAY

Waited every shot, every hole.

2 groups ahead of us was a Five-some, slowing everyone.

No ranger.

Enjoy the layout at Silverthorn, some fun holes.

Condition

They let out a group of 5 that played very slowly, and there was no ranger to help speed up the play. The greens were fast in good condition. Sand traps were below average, fairways on the front nine were bad and on the back the worst i have ever seen. I have played here several times in the past but not for years. I brought my boys and was totally embarrassed.

Horrible Conditions

I've played silverthorn several times over the years, And this time the course is in the worse shape I've ever seen a golf course in Florida. Fairways are dry and without grass tee boxes included. And let me tell you about the 5 sum in front of us, 5 people 5 carts and never let pass through. No wonder the course is in such bad shape. Don't waste your money here

Bad shape

This was a nice course not long ago. It is in rough shape. The fairways are dead and filled with weeds. There is very little grass around the bunkers, and most of the greens are in poor condition. The staff and clubhouse are great.
