Tilden Park Golf Course

We wanted to pay extra to have our own cart. The manager would not let us do that. I don’t understand if a single player came on he’d be able to use his own cart. We wanted to pay so we can have our own extra cart I was playing with a guy that was 300 pounds plus it was very uncomfortable to sit in the cart with him.

Great track. Would recommend getting a cart. Walking really slows down the pace of play as the front 9 is very hilly. Fortunately its a beautiful scene up on the hill with majestic nature, so not the worst place to be stuck waiting to hit. This seems to be the go to track for most Berkeley area residents, so it is typically busy in my experiences here.

I say that they’ve done some cleaning up and mowed a lot of the tall rough. It’s better and close to very good. I just don’t agree with the fees and cart fees and $10 deposit for cart key. Overall, not bad.

I think this course makes enough money that they could do a complete upgrade of all the ball washers. I don't think that's too much to ask. Also the 100 and 150 yardage markers should be repainted. Other than that it's a great place to play golf.

I have never, in all my time of playing experienced a round of golf quite as slow as this. 3 hours had passed and we barely finished the 8th hole. I asked for a rain check and they gave it to me but the guy in the shop told me "this is the new pace of play." Essentially saying that they let people take forever and do nothing about pace of play. They have an entire staff to enforce pace of play and do literally nothing. If you are paying good hard-earned money to play a game that you enjoy, this is not the place for you. They seem to relish in the idea that their course is overwhelmed by slow players.

First time playing the course. I was impressed with the course and the conditions were good. The pace on the greens was very slow and a lil bumpy, but overall very good condition.

What an amazing layout you wouldn’t even know you were in the bay area you think you’re in the high country somewhere very well taken care of a hidden gem

Let people play right now is permanently ruining this course. There is no fairway but mud and water. You tearing the fair just by walking on it.

I am a local and this course to used to be A LOT better under its original management. Staff was more friendly and course was in better shape. Not worth the money to play and additional cost for a cart. Course plays EXTREMELY slow (5-6 hours). Play early if you have time.

The course itself is beautiful as it sits in a regional park. But because of the rainy weather in California, it is too muddy to walk. The green and tee box need maintenance as well.by the way, french fries are great which comes from the cafe on the hill at hole 10th.

Walked the course very challenging. Like the challenges of the course - hillside lies and difficult pin placements

Good pace and not overly crowded. Course is up and down

Tilden is amazing for a public course, however their approach to monitoring pace of play is to ignore that completely. Zero course marshal presence on the day I was there. Not acceptable in a very early AM tee time!
