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.

The greens
The greens are amazing! Roll true. Make you think about where you want to leave it on the green. Decent elevation changes. Good bunker placement. Really nice course, well thought out course with greens for those who love to putt.
NICE
Nice shape havent played since 1990 's. But still solid course nice staff very good especially such an older facility
Delight golf at Silver Springs
The course was layer out in a way tho accommodate golfers of various levels. Greens were fantastic.
first impression
Very nice condition especially the greens. More sand traps than we are used to but all were in good condition.
Only negative is starter was letting too many singles and doubles out.
Great all around experience
It’s a very nice course the greens were in great shape the staff is very friendly Zoe in the bar was a sweetheart and I will definitely be back. It was a little chilly today so not very crowded and pace of play it was fantastic I have seen it a little crowded but I’m GolfNow you cannot beat the value again I will definitely be back. In fact I actually have another teatime for this Monday.
A solid golf venue
Played with friends-great weather-a solid golf day!!
Good course
Course was in ok condition but cart path was terrible. Very run down lacking proper maintenance.
Fantastic layout
We always enjoy our time here. Aside from a 30 minute wait for hotdog and chips (call ahead next time) we plan to play again.
We always enjoy the shores.
Nice track and pleasant experience. The greens out here are impeccable!
