First Time Playing

Played this course with a full four on Sunday morning. Honestly we had a great time. The greens were fairly quick for our liking but overall the course was well maintained. Wasn’t overly busy so we were able to play at our own pace. The course layout was interesting as some holes shared tee boxes. 9th hole club house was very nice. Definitely a decent spot and would come back.

Pace of play

Incredibly slow pace of play. It took 2 hours to get through 7 holes and the last two were still really backed up.

5 group Back up

This course had a back up of 5 groups on the 8th hole and did not move at all. 1 hour to play 7-9 on the south course for a twighlight round. The ranger was notified and never showed to keep things on pace. The staff in the club house took care of the rain check for the back and we’re friendly.

Overbooked

Silver lake has nice courses, but they consistently overbook and can only offer 5-6 hour rounds.

They jam up the course by setting tee times 8 minutes apart, but their website has tips on how patrons can play faster. Seems like gaslighting to me, and I will just go to any other course in the area from now on.

Fun greens but slow pace

2nd time playing here. Not sure if it’s worth $60 in the end but there are always time slots available to play. Pace was very slow, got very backed up at hole 6th; about 5 groups waiting at south 6 hole.

Expect 5+ hours

(South Course) I had read reviews about the pace so I was expecting a slow round but we were through 8 holes after an 1 hr 50 min, so I was pleasantly surprised! Then we reached the par 3 9th… there were 2 groups waiting on the tee box, +our group as the 3rd, and by the time the green cleared the group behind us caught up to us as well. Nightmare fuel. I admit it wasn’t great etiquette on our part, but we skipped to the 10th hole and pace improved after the 12th. We finished our round in just under 5 hours (~3 hours for final 11 holes). If we hadn’t skipped the bottleneck at the 9th it would’ve easily been 5 1/2 hours or more. Aside from the pace, the course was pretty solid. Grass was in good shape for April, rough wasn’t as thick as some courses in the area, and I liked the layout. Price is pretty good for what the course offers but not sure if I’d go back considering the pace is clearly a recurring issue.

Mid-April

The sun was shining and the wind was blowing, but it was good to be on the golf course in Mid-April. I have not played the South course in a few years. Pleasantly surprised at how open and visually appealing the course was (trees and debris removed). I will be back shortly!
