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.

Golfer Reviews
Not great timing
Actual course was solid as I expected-perimeters needed some work- cart paths a little rough, lots of bare spots needing fill, greens were the slowest I've ever played them but still playable-problem today, computers down, start times not in sync, more play on course than what was told, caught group on #4 & waited every shot from that point on-quit on 17 due to rain & felt better drinking beer-waited 10 minutes
to hit 2nd shot on 17, rains came & no way to stay & finish!!
Surprised
Played on a Sunday and was pleasantly surprised by this course. From the road I thought I had made a mistake, now real sign out front, but saw it on the way home. It looks like it’s 100 years old. But have to say the actual course was in great shape, and very challenging from back tee box . The lounge was a surprise as well, great deals and bartender, Kayla was great!
Great. Challenging course. Very nice shape. Thatchedverticut greens not to long ago. Still roll good. Will be real nice very soon. Set up well for season upcoming.
First time here
From the friendly staff, to the easy check in and run out to the first tee, my son and I had a great day of golf. The course layout was fun yet challenging. From the variety of tea boxes, to the wide fairways, and water across the course made it fun but kept challenging. My son just moved to the area, and we will be back!!
Hidden gem
Played this course for the first time today with a buddy. We both agreed ,great course, great condition . Greens ,fairways are fantastic. Rough isn't real punishing. Go out and enjoy this great course.
Kudos to the GM
Course was in good condition. Greens roiled very well. Fairways good. Had a timing mishap due to large tournament. GM Jay handled situation with great professionalism which lead to our foursome having an enjoyable round.
Always better than working
haven't played this course in about 10 years. Course is in great shape, forgot how challenging the back nine was. All in all a great day with great friends
Improving course. The staff was pleasant while checking in and the round of golf was enjoyable. Will be back.
Great Ocala/Marion course
Course is in good, but not great shape. New carts run great. Some soggy areas in the fairways due to recent rain. Fast greens minus #18. No crowds. Picked up a hot deal and was able to get a round for 4 at $76.
Better than expected
Played here a couple of times over the summer, and I noticed that there was a lot of maintenance going on each time. The overall improvement has been remarkable from then till now. Bunkers have been worked hard and play as well as any around. The Greens have been maintained as well as any I've played in Ocala. Fairways are green, with some weeds in spots, but overall they are very playable. Great value for the Hot Deal $.
Play it again
Haven’t played this course in over a year. They had the old antique golf carts the last time I played. The Course with the exception of one or two geens was in great shape the greens rolled true. An fairways are in good shape
Been a While
We'd played this course earlier in the spring and it wasn't in as good a shape as it was this time around. The fairways were good and the green's fast and excellent to putt on. If you keep your ball in the fairway or just into the second cut your fine. If you get into the rough grab another ball and move on. All in all a fine day's golf.
Good course value
Great course for the money. Good for all types of players.
