Country Club of Silver Springs Shores
About
Opened in 1969, the Country Club at Silver Springs Shores has been host to a variety of mini-tour and U.S. Open Section qualifying events. It is known for having some of the fastest and most severe greens in the area. Desmond Muirhead, a longtime associate of Jack Nicklaus, designed the golf course, giving it a different character on the front and back nines. The first half of the golf course is a traditional parkland layout that mixes native trees and wide-open meadows. The back nine is a true Florida-style golf course with water coming into play on six holes. Country Club at Silver Springs Shores finishes with one of its toughest water holes, a par 5 starts with an intimidating tee shot past a massive lake that wraps around the landing area. Many locals consider Silver Springs Shores to be one of the best public golf courses in the Ocala area.

Will be back!
Greens in very good shape,fairways good,layout interesting, cart paths shot.
Hidden Gem!
I loved this course. Not perfect, but very good shape and playable.
Great course lousy cart paths
The course itself was in pretty good shape despite numerous bumps in the fairways. The cart path were the worst I have ever seen, you were better stay off of them and riding along the bumpy grass.
Fun course
Fun day on the course everything was great the greens were a bit slow in need of a trim. The course is not too far out of town but far enough to give a peaceful country feel. We played this course in the past and enjoy returning from time to time.
The one improvement the course should make is fixing the cart path there are some significant pot holes and off roading along the path. All in all fun course & great staff
Great course; and the crowds prove it
This is a great course and I love the challenging layout and putting greens. I've played this course many times; however my partner and I quit on the 14th hole due to slow pace of play. I haven't done that in years but is was that bad...5 1/2 hour round. From 14-18 there were 2; sometimes 3 groups on each hole. This is a course management issue, but the course itself is great.
CC at Silver Springs Shores
Very enjoyable round with my son. Having 5 tee boxes helps golfers of all abilities. There are a couple holes on the course that are as hard as any in all of Ocala, especially when the wind kicks up a bit. We had great service from the pro shop, snack bar/lounge and even the cart girl! I would suggest some repair work is needed on many of the cart paths, but overall the course was great.
Great

Really good
Another great round on a favorite course. Greens good and tricky pin position overall great fairways and tee boxes
