Silver Lakes Golf & Country Club
About
Carved from 200 acres of mature forest along the Holland River just 40 minutes from downtown Toronto, Silver Lakes Golf & Country Club provides a scenic round reminiscent of those found in either Florida or the Carolinas. Neighbored by native wetlands, the golf course features water hazards on 12 holes. There are also treacherous, well placed bunkers coming into play on every hole. The par-3 third hole is notably challenging, in addition to being flanked by bunkers, it also requires a carry over a pond. Silver Lakes Golf & Country Club also features a unique seven-acre aqua driving range as well as three chipping and putting greens.

Golfer Reviews
Great course, very slow pace
Have played this nice course several times over many years and usually enjoy its layout and conditioning which were excellent this year too. Unfortunately we played on a day last week when they also had a small tournament. It took our 4-some using carts 5 hours and waited on every hole. It amazes me that golf clubs risk their reputations by booking tournaments followed closely by individual tee times on the same day. Don't they know that tournaments rarely have a quick or even on-time pace? They had too many 4somes on the course that afternoon. And their marshals were ineffective, especially on the second nine.
Thank you for taking the time to comment and sorry to hear that your experience was a little more drawn out than you would have liked. We understand your frustrations. Generally we book a limited number of tee times after tournaments and don't start them until 45 mins-1 hour giving a buffer that still allow public to play in 4:15 minutes. Thank you for taking the time to let us know sir.

Problems with tee times
They claimed Golfnow overbooked therefoe could keep tee time.
Thank you for taking the time to comment Greville. Please contact our golf professional Chris so we can resolve any future confusion with bookings. Sorry to hear that there were issues with your booking.
This course is well maintained
This course is better than last game 10 years before.
Thank you for taking the time to review Simon. We are glad that you enjoyed the course!
Thunderstorm and rain check
I completed 7 holes when the horn sounded to return to the clubhouse.After waiting 15 minutes inside, I inquired how much longer til we could go out. I was told another 30 minutes or so. With that delay and the slow pace of play, it was unlikely that I could have completed the full 18 holes before before nightfall. I asked for a rain check. I got one for 9 holes & a cart.
Thanks for the review Jon. It has been a challenging season to say the least. Seems like no more than 2-3 days in a row without rain before it starts up again. We are hoping for a nice long/dry/warm rest of the summer & fall.
Thanks for taking the time to review our facility "Tony"
Hope you come back to visit us again soon!
Thank you for visiting us Mr.Tomlinson! Hope that you enjoyed the course and played well!
Nice fairways
I like this course for the manicured fairways. It almost looks like artificial grass but it is nice and soft. The rate we paid was a special. Because of the wetness we were bombarded by mosquitoes on th front nine but solve that problem with insect repellent and had a wonderful back nine.
Thank you for taking the time to comment! We agree the course is in fantastic shape........some golfers are inclined to take off their shoes even! Hope to see you back at the club again soon.
Golfing in a marsh
Tough review to write as the course was a victim of the elements.
The course was drenched, wet,muddy, soggy, you name it.
Mother natures wasy of saying find another sport.
Its a great course, but not when you have to use a ball retriever to get your ball out of the water in the middle of the fairway.
At long last mother nature is cooperating with us "Shellin". Course has dried up and good to go. A challenging spring for all the courses in southern ontario that's for sure. Thankfully we have cart paths which has allowed us to stay open when many were unable.
Hope to see you back at the club again soon.
Nice Course
Enjoyed this course but stay out of the trees as mosquitoes abound.
Great fairways and greens, friendly staff. Was a busy day but pace of play kept moving with minor delays a couple times. Have played tournaments here and the food was good at events. Good value on a Hot deal tee time
Hello "Rogmax". Thank you for taking the time to review the course. That is definitely one of our local tips as well. Keep it down the middle and you'll dodge our friends the mosquitos!
Great course
I really like playing Silverlakes. It is well laid out. They keep the course clean and well maintained. Chris is a good guy and always welcoming. The hot dogs are pretty good too.
Thank you for the kind words Michael. Glad that you enjoyed the course your last time out.....we will have a hot dog ready for you on your next visit!
Thank you for taking the time to review and play our course! Hope to see you back out here again soon!
Greens are like lightning
Great course. One of my favourites in the GTA. Course is in great shape so early. Greens are some of the best you'll find. Fast but fair. Staff is great and friendly and remember you. My only nit picky thing is the gas carts. Noisy. But other than that worth every penny.
Thanks for the review Amazin55!. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the course when you came up to play. Wish we were able to have electric as well but not able to as of yet until the necessary power would be available on Old Yonge street. As soon as we are able we will make the switch! See you soon we hope.
Best condition it's been in in years. Really nice. Greens fast as F...
Thank you for taking the time to review the course "Buffungalo" Hope that the greens were just the right speed for you to make a few putts out there!
Thank you for the kind review. Hope that you played well out there "U9003324"
Great time out
Hidden gem. Always saw his on GolfNow however was a good drive away. Just a fun course that test your bag. Was abit slow however the group in front and back were great to chat with and we made the best of a great day out..we are coming back soon...staff top notch.
We are thrilled that you made the trip from Bowmanville to visit us "Infiltrate". I will be sure to pass along the kind review of our staff and course conditions to everyone who worked. We appreciate it!
Thank you for taking the time to comment Bob.
Our gravel/dirt path can definitely be a rougher ride especially with the amount of rain this season. I will pass along your kind words to our superintendant Greg and his team.
