Grey Silo Golf Course

Course was in great shape, fast greens, interesting lay out, challenging for a duffer like me

Joined up with a couple of the course marshal’s. I enjoyed the conversation, the course and the day overall. I highly recommend this course and look forward to playing it again.

Nice course bad Marshalls . Took 4 hours and 50 minutes.

Beware water going out, narrower landing zones coming in. A handicap lowerer.

Grey Silo, a Waterloo muni managed by Golf North, is a great design. All 18 holes are challenging, yet playable. Don’t let the relative shortness of the course (6500 yards from the tips) fool you. It’s a great track for players at all levels.

But the Golf North experience is always disappointing. The rangers and startersand greeters are great but the staff — another story. The young man in the Pro Shop was surly at best. He never even looked st me.

The tees and fairways at Silo are always trimmed beautifully. The greens had been recently VertiCut when I played so putts tended to bobble and bounce. The mostly po greens are always shaggy to my eye.

Also, grey silo wants you to lift, rake and place in their very inconsistent bunkers. They suggest it will speed up play. Instead, it slows play and many players rake to place their ball and then don’t rake again. Awful

Grey Silo is one of the best munis in Ontario. But its promise is never achieved and that is very frustrating. I was a member for a number of years until this year and that frustration is one of the reasons I left.

Yes, I recommend this golf course, but not without reservations.

Very nicely laid out green where nice but slow. I really liked this coarse

Challenging, but fair course. Smooth greens. Will play again.

The pro shop advised of flood damage to a few fairway areas but carts were allowed out on scatter pattern. These GUR areas were mostly not in the line of play. One par 4 that normally is quite challenging was shortened to a par 3. The fairways and greens were in great shape. Leaves had been blown clear of fairways. We will come back again in the spring.

We booked through Golf Now with no warning that there were only 9 holes playable with construction taking place. Clearly the coarse would have known of this closure since large earth moving equipment was on site and working. Is there no mechanism in place for the facility to inform Golf Now of closures so that they don't falsely advertise??

I have played this course before and always highly rated. Drove from Toronto on a beautiful late fall day only to be disappointed when we arrived at the course.
We were informed that only 9 holes were open on the 18 hole layout. So we played # 1 and then 10 to 17 (course layout) .
We replayed the same holes but after a wait of 30 minutes to play the same 9 again (pace of play).

I would definitely play this course again but, It would be nice to receive advance notification about such situations either from the golf course or golfnow. Fix this for the future.

This is a nice layout, although too much walking between holes. Course is in great shape. It was a little slow, but not sure why. Marshall was out. Got a good deal to play. Judy at the starter shed was great and dealt with a late group very well. Would recommend the course highly.

I had very high expectations of this course, since it recently hosted an LPGA event- but I was very disappointed with the condition of the greens- they were cut very long and slow and inconsistent

We love this course but the last 4 times we have golfed it the pace has been way too slow. I still recommend the course

The course was in really good condition and the pin placements were tricky.

What can you say when the people , place and condition were perfect. I recommend every body give this course a try you will not regret it.
