You will pass the fire department. You will come to another intersection where you will see the Boone Gate on your left. Boone is really the beginning or end of Morse.

Go straight through this intersection and stay on Paradise until you come to Lauren Lane, which is the first left. It is just a little strip of a road and you will come to another intersection. This is Schwartz. Take a left on Schwartz. Stay on Schwartz until you come to Heathrow. Take a right on Turnberry and you will run straight into the Silver Lake golf course.

It is easy. Left after the bridge. Stay straight. Left on Lauren. Left on Schwartz. Right on Turnberry.
hate to tell you this but this is the loooong way around to silver lake gc...

You are absolutely right, but I think it is the safest and easiest way for someone who has never been to Silver Lake and whom has only been to the original side once. Just my opinion and I'm sticking with it.

Yes. LOL Turnberry runs into the parking lot and you go through there to the starter shack. If you don't stop at the starter shack you hit Rainbow, just off of Dustin. The tennis courts and the parking lot for the courts are on Dustin.

I second that. And I know Schaumberger is a class act as well.

Why! Because a little intuitive effort is good exercise for the brain rather than having everyone do your work!

People love to share local knowledge. I don't see it as having others do my work. I see it as being part of a community.

Yes, it is an extremely long, long way to get to Silver Lake Golf Course. njbchbum has it right.

Sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree. One you go through the Medical Gate, it's almost a straight shot down Beechwood and the Silver Lake Rec Center is right in front of you.

Through the gate, right on Tarrson go about 20 yards and go left on Beechwood. You'll see the rec center in front of you and the starter shack is right behind the rec center.
