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.

great course and facilities
My second time playing here. Course was in great condition. A little slow at times. We ordered lunch and my son said it was the best hamburger he ever had.
Beautiful Golf Course
Silver Lakes is one of my favorite golf courses. I make sure I don't miss playing this course in every season. The fairways are excellent. Greens are perfect. Very challenging and ideal for all types of players. Each hole is different. Will play again soon.
Excellent customer service especially the Pro Shop and Marshall.
Good environment great features
Great staff challenging course
Glad that you enjoyed the course. Hope to see you out at the course again before the end of the season.
Slow play ruined our round
Returned to this course after an enjoyable round the previous year but this time our round was affected by the slow play of groups ahead of us. Starter set us off too soon behind earlier groups and marshals did not enforce the recommended time of play. An otherwise pleasantly sunny day and fair course layout was ruined by the slow play of the group ahead of us in particular. Would encourage starter to be more selective and marshals to be more diligent in enforcing pace of play.
Sorry to hear that you were frustrated with the marshalling/starting yesterday Alf. My apologies. Normally we don't have issues with starting as we only book tee times every 9 minutes as opposed to 7 or 8 minute intervals. Hopefully you did enjoy the course and that your game wasn't affected too negatively by the pace of play.
Course is in Great Shape.
Everything about the course is great except as you could find anywhere the pace of play was a little slow at just under 5 hours. The 4 some in front of us shouldn't of been hitting from the blues since they were in the woods often and really didn't hit long balls the warranted playing from the blues. Maybe the marshal should of been on them since I don't think they were told by anyone to speed it up.
Thank you for the kind words and sorry to hear that the pace wasn't as good as the course conditions. Our marshalls do help out groups as much as they can to keep things moving along but there may have been multiple issues on the course the day you played. Hope to see you back at the club again soon!
Great course, Great staff, Great day of golf!
Heard a of nice things about this course and it delivered. No issues whatever. Great day of golfing. Highly recommend this gem of a course and wonderful staff.
Thank you for the kind comments Mr.Singh. We are glad that your two groups enjoyed themselves and glad that you made the trip down. Hope to see you again!
Good memory
Course conditions are excellent.
Thank you for the kind words "Kein" Happy to hear that you enjoyed the course and hope to see you back at Silver Lakes again soon!

Beautiful course
Excellent conditions and great pace of play made this golf game most enjoyable!!
Thank you for the kind words. Glad to hear that you enjoyed your course and saw value in our great rates dugferg.
A very nice course to play
The course is well maintained even during the driest weeks.
Pace is very good and we never had any problem. The course layout is great and every hole is different. Overall it is a course that I always want to come back.
However, if you play in fall, finding your balls among the fallen leaves once you are off the fairway will be a challenge.
Simon? Fall leaves??? You're getting ahead of yourself! lol Hope that you enjoyed the course and that you get back to see us before the leaves start to fall which we hope will be a long long long time from now! Thanks for visiting us.
Fantastic conditions
A very enjoyable layout. The course is well watered making for lush fairways and greens - no brown outs here during these current drought conditions. Lots of tree lined holes demand driving accuracy. Owners are very friendly.
Hello Dhgolf.....glad to hear that you enjoyed the course and hopefully stayed out of the trees! Hope to see you back at the club soon!
Silver Lake
Considering the dry summer, this course is in great shape!
Hello Thom. Thank you for the kind words. Our greens staff do a fantastic job of keeping the course in great shape. Glad to hear you enjoyed your game and hope you come back to see us again soon.
Thank you.
Great day at Silver Lakes
Really good course, conditions, and layout.
9 min tee times so pace of play was great - under 4 hours
Thank you for the nice comments "gdnc". We agree the course is in fantastic shape right now. The dry weather hasn't affected us at all with plenty of water available. Hope to see you back at the club again soon!
Nicely Kept Course
The course is far from the city in Queensville. But the course is very well kept, lush greens with different views. Very scenic course.
Hello ltran,
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the scenery up here at Silver Lakes and hope that you played well. Course is in great shape and hope to see you out again soon!
Very nice course
Staff friendly; conditions excellent especially considering the lack of rain this summer.
Thank you for the kind words and glad you enjoyed the course. We are fortunate to have lots of water available to us and the course is in great shape!
Amazingly Green
Course is in very good shape - due to the lack of rain most courses are brown. Due to the Holland Marsh location the fairways are beautifully green. Highly recommend it.
Thanks for visiting us Amberley! Hope to see you out at the course again soon.
Very well maintained course with a good layout
This course was very enjoyable to play. The ground is well maintained, and the staff was very friendly and courteous.
I recommend the course and will come back this season.
Thanks for the kind words Karif and hope to see you out at Silver Lakes again soon.
slow play
we tee'd off after 2 pm. there was nobody on the tee and we could clear;y see nobody had tee'd off for at least 15 minutes. within 3 holes we had caught up to other players. our rather quick round ended right there.
THE COURSE WAS NOT BUSY !!. but the foursomes on the course were terrible, there were even some people who clearly had brought their wives and they were beginners. the pace of play was horrible and in some cases we were 4 groups on the same hole.....
we were not waved through by anyone.
finally, after much waiting and frustration we simply started jumping holes to get our round in in a reasonable time.
there was no marshall on the course....nobody.
if i am going to pay 70$ to play golf here then the course must have a marshall on duty and actively be pushing along groups who obviously slow or simply be asking them to pick up their ball and move along.
all courses must do more to eliminate slow play.
Hello Don. Sorry to hear that the few golfers out there didn't have the etiquette to wave your group through. During busy days we do have marshalls/starters on duty and Silver Lakes customers are generally respectful of one another during quieter times. Sorry to hear that wasn't the case during your visit.
Great round at Silver Lakes
My foursome played on Sunday afternoon. It was a very windy day with gusts of over 40km/h. There were a lot of mature trees to block out some of the wind, but higher shots were definitely affected by the wind. I lose a few well-struck tee shots due to the swirling wind over the trees. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in pretty good conditions. Greens were rolling fast & true enough for a mid range course. Staff was very nice and courteous, which made the experience an enjoyable one.
You definitely played on a challenging day! Glad to hear that you enjoyed the course and were pleased with our staff reception
Silver Lakes - Hidden Gem
Great course - friendly staff.
Haven't been back in years, but will definitely be going back soon. Course is in pretty and is in GREAT shape - can't complain.
Pace was a little slow - not sure if we were packed in.
I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Thank you for the kind words and nice review. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the course and sorry the pace wasn't as brisk as usual. Hope to see you back at Silver Lakes again soon.
Thank you for the kind comments Carlo and happy to hear you enjoyed the course! Hopefully have you out at the club again before the end of the season.
