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.

Always a good time a Silverlakes
Always an enjoyable round a Silverlakes. Course is always maintained well. I've played here a dozen times over the years and pace of play is never an issue and course is always in great shape. Can't beat the golfnow rate for this pace. See you soon.
Great course
Great course
Friendly staff and the course was in amazing shape for the end of July.
Looking forward to playing here again
Thanks for comments "wayne6196963". Course is still in just as good condition now so hope to see you back here through the fall months sir!
Great course and very well kept
We've played Silver Lakes many times. The staff is always friendly and the course is well maintained....even the bunkers (lots of sand so you can hit out properly...other courses are like hitting out of concrete). The cart girls were also available frequently since it was a hot day, so this was appreciated and they're very polite. The food at the club was also very good. They also provide a course layout so you have a good idea of any water and sand, which is very nice. We went to another course and it was very annoying...poorly marked.
Good value
Course is nice. Greens are a little beat up with divot holes.ake sure to bring big repellant. Lots of Mosquitos here.
Thanks for the comments Jack. Appreciate you coming to Silver Lakes Golf & Conference Centre for a visit. Hope that you are up to see us again soon!
great atmosphere
Always a pleasure playing here. Beautiful golf course and very strong layout. Will definitely be a repeat guest.
We agree Mr.Wheeler! Course is in magnificent shape now and mother nature is co-operating! Hope to see you out again soon.
Great condition
Course was in great condition,great playing conditions and great value through Golfnow.
Thank you Mr.Ordonez. Glad you came up for a visit from Pickering. It's definitely an easier trip for you now with the 404 extension right up to Queensville Side Road. Hope to see you here again soon.
Nice course, great value
This course will offer any level of golfer a challenge. I have played many courses around the GTA and abroad and this course can compare to most of them. The value is incredible for the level of play which it offers. Definitely will play again, want to try it when it is a little dryer out.
Thanks for the nice comments "sdelyannis" Glad to hear that you enjoyed yourself and we agree that's it great value (mind you we have a somewhat biased opinion!) Hope to see you back at the club again soon.
Wide Open Spaces
First impression was the staff were extremely friendly. From the young gentleman taking my bag and setting up my cart, the front desk staff and the Marshall who gave a quick course over view to us newcomers.
Course conditions were Excellent. Tees were clean, fairways beautiful - better than the greens I played at another local course. The greens were tight and fast.
The recent wet weather did make it a little tricky if your ball strayed to far into the rough. A little squishy.
One thing that surprised me was how forgiving the fairways were, lots of room, my impression before I played this course was that the fairways would be tight. Small mistakes could still place you on the edges of the fairways.
Overall it was a great day out. Never felt rushed by the staff or other golfers and the forgiving fairways prevented undue frustration with a bad shot because it usually left you with a decent lie.
o.k There has to be something to improve....
1: Obviously it is a choice to buy from the beverage cart - But the $$$. Crazy.
2: Buzzing Lawn Tractors they whole time.
Thanks for the kind words "sabio" and glad that you enjoyed your first visit to Silver Lakes Golf & Conference Centre! There is definitely some more room than you might originally think off the tee. The challenge comes in the 2nd shots to smaller greens. Hope that you come back again soon to better your score from your first visit.

Lovely course
Well maintained, lots of variety, pretty scenery. Suits all types of golfers.
Thanks for the comments "Esclisizca" Glad to hear that you enjoyed the course and the scenery and we agree that it is a fair but fun challenge for all types of golfers.
Hope to see you back again soon!
Top notch
This course is in great condition with mature trees. Nice water hazards and well kept bunkers. It's the first time playing this course and will definitely play here again. I would also recommend this course to my friends.
Thanks for your comments Don. Glad to hear that you came to visit and not a long trip from Barrie. Course is in amazing shape right now so hope to have you back again soon.
Silver Lakes Staff
great way to spend the afternoon
Course is in great shape, a little soggy in places, but well worth it. I would recommend
Thanks for the comments "uGRHV3009GR". It's been a rather damp June to say the least but the warm/dry weather the last couple of days has us in great shape. Hope to see you back at the club again soon!
Mosquito Heaven
Great course, challenging and well groomed but they have to do something about the Mosquito infestation. We were swatting away mosquito's on almost every shot. I saw golfers in shorts and was mortified think how can they even play a hole without getting bit every 10 seconds. Bug spray had no effect
Thanks for the comments JimOziel. They come out from time to time when it's muggy with no wind. It has been a drier than usual spring up until the last couple of weeks but hope that you enjoyed you game.
One of favorite public courses
Great place tee off early or 5hr round. Great condition. Saw deer today!
Thanks for visiting us HappyG99! Glad that you enjoyed your game and had some wildlife to spot out there!
Always a pleasure at Silver Lakes
Everytime I play here it is a great day. Course is beautiful and challenging, pace of play is always good. Staff are friendly and courteous. My favorite course. If I lived closer I would be a member.
Thanks for the pleasant comments "Patrick6259081" we're glad to hear that you enjoyed your day! Hope to see you back at the club again soon.
One of my favs
Always liked this course and find it is challenging and fair. The greens can be deceiving and they were pretty fast today. I wish they would upgrade their golf carts though.
Thanks for your kind words Aubs88 and glad to hear that you enjoyed your game yesterday. Hope to see you back at the club soon! We may even have some of our new fleet of carts here next time you're here.......new fleet of 2015 golf carts will be in play by mid-August.

Play If You Get The Chance
This course is one of my favorites.
The staff provides friendly greeting from the time you park. Smiles everywhere.
The course was lush and in great shape everywhere as usual.
A well manicured, good mix of challenging holes with some very wide fairways and water hazards thrown into the mix.
Stay out of the trees, the mosquitoes are always hungry but leave you alone if you keep your ball in the short stuff.
Thanks for the kind workds VinceDC and glad to hear that you enjoyed your game at Silver Lakes! Hope that we see you out at the club again soon!
good course
This course is very good conditions and nice facilities .
Very enjoyed!!
Thanks for the kind words Epenetus. Glad to hear that you enjoyed your game here at Silver Lakes. Hope that you come back to see us again soon!
One of my favourite courses
Great course. The fairways and greens are in fantastic shape. The marshal ensures golfers move at a steady pace.
Thanks for the kind words ccc777! Much appreciated. Glad to hear that you had a good experience and that our Golf Ops staff made your day a pleasant one. Hope to see you back at the club soon.
Great course,
Yes played this track a few times,its a great course,not worth the dollar amount though $77.with cart,Golf now is getting very expensive this year,will look into something different,if prices don't drop,
Thanks for the comments abbynyatti. We have some great deals in our twilight time if you're interested after 3:00, 4:00 & 5:00. Hope to see you out at the club again soon.
Course has lost its luster
This course was an hidden gem a couple years ago. Now it just seems like an overpriced cottage course resting on its glory days. Course conditions were sub par at best. Problem is that a lot of golfers refuse to take care of the course the way it should be which means fixing pitch marks on greens and raking bunkers. Figure the course marshal who seemed to just drive around could possibly look at greens as he was driving past and fix some ball marks and possibly rake some of the mess up in the bunkers. Too bad because this was a great value course a couple years ago. Good luck!!!
Thank you for your comments Kerry and sorry to hear that the course wasn't in the great shape you are used to seeing us in. It was a particularly busy day which probably contributed to some of the issues if some fellow golfers weren't as considerate with their course etiquette. Still some great value however especially late in the day in our twilight tee times. Hope to see you out at the course again soon.
Thanks for the comments "Justtapitin1980" Hope that you have nothing but "tap ins" the rest of the 2015 season and that some of them are here at Silver Lakes!
