This was the second time I've played this course. Most of the greens were very good to excellent. Most greens had three to six sand bunkers around them and three had water to shoot over. Fairways were good and most of the tee boxes were good. Will definitely play this course again.

Not what I expected

I have play here a few rounds before.
Was surprised to see this course go down hill
1. Grass growing in bunkers.
2. Chip marks all fairways, some really deep and large.
3. Alot of brown grass.
4. Had a tee time of 9:20am. Did not.tee off til 10:15am.
Course allows teenagers playing with carts
:(

Hopefully getting better

Tee boxes and fairways pretty spotty, traps are pretty weedy but can't complain too much. Got out of 3 of them beautifully. Greens are pretty healthy, I believe they are pretty new and I am guessing bermuda so naturally grainy. A bit disappointed that the grill wasn't open until around 10 am or so, but they did heat a hotdog for me before they were actually open. It's always nice to play a pristine course but for the average golfer it is well worth the hot deal.

An unbiased honest opinion

This is the second time I’ve played this course. The last time was a couple years ago and wasn’t happy then. I was shocked to fine a lot of the same from then til now.

I’ll start with the good: the carts are newer and the greens were nice. 4 out of 5 stars for both. The pace of play was great but I’m sure that’s because of the actual course condition.

Now, there are many improvements that need to be made. I’ll start at the beginning. The “pro shop” wasn’t stocked as much as my truck cab. The guy who checked us in must have had better things to do because he basically ignored everything I asked him. The range balls were very heavily worn or broken. I’m sure they were left over from my previous visit years ago. The range itself was dirt and the grass that it did have was more like the rough. There may have been 4 total tee boxes that were actually usable. The rest were like playing from the rough. Every bunker we had to play out of has grass growing through it or was completely overgrown.

I really wish I was making this up because I really like the course layout. It has a lot of potential.

Silverthorn is Back!

Totally appreciate the effort going back into the grooming of this course. I would play daily if I could. It feels right & plays right. Those who left, don’t hurry back. I really like the pace of play without you.

Great course ! But needs a little work

Golfed here the last 2 days great layout and the greens and fantastic. Fairway needs work lots of off grass clumps and holes very uneven and bumpy sand traps they need new sand and have growth in them, all very easy fixes just need green keeper attention to be very good Will definitely be back!!

Definitely in better shape than a month ago.

The course maintenance has definitely improved. Greens were in great shape, the rough wasn’t so long where we were losing balls like the last time we played here. Overall for the 22 bucks a person it was a great value. Now the driving range was complete crap with zero grass but the course was in pretty good shape.

Better roughs

Greens have been good for some time and on this day it was obvious that more effort had gone into cutting the roughs shorter so that majority of wayward shots could be found. Traps still need additional sand ans elination of weeds.
