Silver Lakes Golf & Country Club

Definitely worth playing. The pace was good 4.15 hours. Enjoyed the round - will be back.

maybe the most challenging and beautiful public courses ever... on this day, however, the greens were in unusually poor condition even for this time of year... difficult to read the pace/speed of the greens - grass was long making the greens very slow... never the less, will definitely be back like many times before - hopeful the greens to return to usual pristine form before long! P.S. call and inquire as to greens conditions - reserve prudently

For the time of year, the course was in very good shape. The greens were slow, but, we were advised of that prior to teeing off. Some were a little bumpy...but, overall in very good shape for this time of year. The fairways and tee boxes were in very goods shape.
It was a very good value since the price included the cart.
I've golfed there many times and shall return.

I have played this course several times over the last 20 years, always from the white tees. I am not a long hitter.

Silver Lakes is flat and always in good condition. It plays just over 6000 yards from the white tees. Challenge comes from some narrow fairways, some water, some bunkering, and some narrow greens that demand an accurate approach shot. Some greens have significant breaks, but the greens were pretty slow this May - early in season to be cutting them short.

It is pretty reliable - good shape, good reception, reasonable challenge. Not a hard course, but not too easy for the average golfer. Mature trees separate holes, but you are often not too far from other golfers.

Driving range is into a lake and is always windy. Weakest feature of the course.

First hole is a shortish 4 to warm up; keep the driver in the bag.

Second hole has water before the green; might want to keep the driver in the bag.

Third is a par 3 over water; centre of green is protected by a difficult bunker. You might want to play to either side of the green; long can be woods. (Par 3s are not long.)

Fourth bends left, so you need to control your driver. Narrow green is tough to hit.

I have played here a couple times over the last couple years. But have been disappointed with the quality of the course. Now in there defence I have been going to them early in the season when it is the best value so that could explain why there course is in such poor shape. This year they had 2 temporary greens and if I remember correctly they had a couple of temp greens last year too. Today is May 16th I have played 9 rounds since April 24th and they were by far the worse. I wish them luck and hope the course comes around when the weather gets better. I'll be reconsidering playing there again. Especially if its early in the season.

great course play it alot but wont go back for a while, greens are awful and will need time.

Needs a couple more weeks to be in good
condition.

Course is winter state still... Imagine will be much nicer once gets to mid season... Very playable for players of all levels.

Fairway was in pretty good condition, not very wet. Pace of the round was acceptable, only the green was in bad shape, slow, bumpy and lots of burn spots from winter.

Have played this course before and really enjoy it. This time the conditions were somewhat poor, since it was early in the season. First couple of holes had the greens closed off completely, and the fairways were sopping wet. May have been better to wait a bit!

Green condotion was no good and two holes has been temporarily green because of preparation for winter.

Silver Lakes is a wonderful test of golf : it is a beautiful course. It would be one of my first choices in the area at all times.

Some winter damage has left the 2nd and 3rd holes with temporary greens. (Which I would note are actually not bad / and don't really diminish the holes themselves by much)

It's a low lying course / so it is pretty soggy - but it is still a great track even given the conditions.

The weather man didn't come though with the mainly sunny day, but the 45 degree temp was tolerable. The coarse was fabulous compared to our home course. With all the leaves down, the grounds crew have done a great job in clearing the fairways. The traps and fairways were first rate and didn't reflect the final days of the season. We would like to come back when all the leaves are on the trees...the course would be stunning.

I was impressed that both fairway and grrens were clean and well managed despite it was November. I enjoyed the game without hassle. Thank you very much.

Very good pace at 4 hours during early afternoon time, very well maintained fairways and tee boxes. Greens need to be cut 2-5 millilitres shorter!

The course was in great condition for late October.

Very nice course, like that you have to play positional golf! don't just smash the ball and go get it in the next fairway? have to play smart!

Couse was in great shape, for the time of year. Greens were really good.
The group in front of us were really , really , slow. And the said part is, they were being held up as well !!!!!
Not sure if 5 hours is a normal round for this course, of if I just happened to be following a beginners tournament?????? Anyway, tee'd off at 11:30 and finished at 4:30. Long cold day!

For late in the season the course , like all year was in
great shape. The greens were good and the pace of
play was good.

with good green fee rate and very quite day excellent
