North at Silver Lake Country Club

With Silver Lake you know exactly what you are going to get. It is usually always crowded so do not expect a quick round. It is an very good shape, the staff is friendly, and the 19th hole is nice as well.

I always enjoy playing the 3 courses at Silver Lake: North, South 18 holes courses and Rolling Hills 9 hole course. They do a very good job in general in maintaining the courses. The very hot weather is the hinderance right now as the greens are not able to hold a drive due to the hot and humid weather. Most sand traps are playable, with a few somewhat hard and lacking soft sand. The course always has its challenges with plenty of mature trees, sand traps and water hazards. I think you will enjoy the courses they offer.

All of the tee times available, including the one I booked, were listed as cart included. Upon checking in at the clubhouse, they tried to demand that each of us pay an additional $15 each for a cart. They eventually gave in when I showed them my booking confirmation that explicitly stated, "This rate includes a cart." Despite giving in, the staff member felt it necessary to add, "I don't like this and I still think you're wrong."

$50 to get told off by a guy clearly in the wrong, then play a course full of burnt out spots and standing water. Uninteresting and uninspired course design, which we had plenty of time to appreciate as we waited for extended periods almost every stroke (group ahead was struggling and unwilling to let us play through, but it's also not their fault that the course books the tee times too close together).

Our group 12- 13 golfers, all finished in 4 1/2 hours. On a packed course. Course in good shape. Greens were in good shape. Staff was friendly.

PROS: The course condition are very good for the amount of play at this facility.

Facility is well maintenced.

CONS: Had to wait 30min past tee time because the course was packed due to 2 outings and a kids league (the place was insane).

Didn’t see 1 beverage cart, nor were there any water coolers (it was 90 with 100% humidity).

Course layout is very boring, some holes are identical.

Excellent value for the SW suburbs.. Nice course- no one hassles you Highly recommend

Course is in great shape and plays well.

Staff is awesome. Club house is great after a round of golf

Two great courses, great staff and facility. Need to get their rangers to speed up slow groups instead of just sitting in carts watching. Pace of play would improve greatly.

Course let a fifth person go out with my foursome. Someone I did not know. I booked the foursome. I was not asked if I was ok with fifth person. Than course staff proceeded to Hassel for slow play when people behind us were about a half a hole behind us. Completely ruined my once a week time to enjoy. I would never recommend this course to anyone. The staff is incompetent. Will never play again.

Pace was ok after we skipped past a group of five playing very slow.

Was reservation 14.45.1 hour before arrived asking cart key ,they asking range ball? My answer not today,and they say then come back 14.30 I was comeback 14.26.they say comeback 4min later.and I was go outside,that time another golfer heard that.He say don't understand.why ? They make a lot money? Just 4 min earlier? After that I played 9 hole and prepare start back 9.but 5 player front of me.3 walk 2 riding. I ' m asking the starter they 5 player together.but starter say was 4 and another 1 together ,just small league. After that of course they slow player and behind us line up.may be some group they can't finish before sunset.it's terrible day.may be they think come by Golf now? I don't want a recognize this club

We got rained out and they gave us a coupon for another round.

Great value outstanding amnenties. Always love playing either of the two courses. Free bottled water from the starter and the very nice cart girl asked us about 5 time if we needed drinks that's awesome service. Had a slow threesome in front of us but that's in them not the course. I would always recommend silver lake.

The only issue I have with this course is the amount of dead trees and tree limbs that have not been removed throughout the course. The first par 3 had two dead trees on the tee box with dead limbs hanging over the tee box. If those limbs were to fall with a golfer under it there would be a major lawsuit. The grounds crew at least needs to be instructed to remove at least the dead limbs that can hurt someone.

Silver Lake is great facility with three different courses. I have played both North and Rolling Hills in the past, but today played the South course during twilight.

They had a large outing that ended around 2:30pm, so there were a lot of golfers waiting to get onto the course for the afternoon. Their pro shop staff moved the line REALLY quickly, helping at least 20 people in the 7 or 8 minutes that I waited to be helped.

Once out on the course, it was busy, so we didn't raced through our 18, but it stayed steady, rangers were out making sure that the foursomes were moving and we played in about 4.5 hours.

The fairways, tee boxes, greens and sand traps were all well taken care of. Many greens are quite large and have some interesting undulations. They were relatively easy to read, however, and speeds were consistent.

They have a few holes that are unique, but all were quite playable.

We had a great time (perfect weather - 70 degrees and sunny) and enjoyed our round. Thanks to Silver Lake and Staff!
