Tilden Park Golf Course

Very scenic course,awesome trees. Top of the world area above UC Berkley.

When I arrived to check in the counter person told me they did not have my reservation. I did not bring my confirmation slip. This the first time I ever forget my slip. So They charged me there twilight rate $25.00 the golf now rate was$ 21.99. I just want you to know that I did play and hope to receive credit. The weather was hot and we managed to get in 18 in 4 Hours. Greens were in good shape and fast. a little bumpy because of all the play during the day. kirk

Hadn't played this course in a while. Course was in very good shape considering the drought. Some very tough holes if you don't keep your ball in the fairway. A lot of left to rights and vice versa. The par threes are all very long except one, just know to play the slopes, course knowledge. The course is very pleasing to the eye along with the deer which just sit and watch you, true. The only drawback is the play can be slow at times so be prepared. I do recommend this course.

My tee time was around 1:30 and didb't end up getting out on the course till 1:50ish. At around 6:45 we reached the 13th hole...yes around 5 hours to play only 13 holes...our group decided to leave after this whole because pace of play was just too slow.

Very nicely maintained course but they definitely overbooked. Probably wont be playing here on a weekend again.

Every time I've played out here on a weekend it's been so slow. I think our round took about 5 hours, and that's only because a lot of people in front of us quit after the turn because it was so slow.

I played on a weekday morning with my dad. We got a tee time early for under $25 on golfnow. That was an absolute steal. The course is well maintained with some bare or boggy spots, but overall green in spite of the drought.

Check in staff was friendly. I did not eat in the restaurant. The practice green was well maintained and encouraged chipping.

Overall, incredible value. Scenery is excellent. Conditions not pristine, but really good.

Hard to beat the value. Got the round with a cart, breakfast, and lunch included which seems unheard of in the bay. Course was really wet and you won't have too many flat lies to hit from. Thought the greens were on decent shape and rolled just fine. Tee off early if you want to play the round at a decent pace. They stack tee times only 8 mins apart.

Tee times bunched too close let to 40 minute delay in afternoon starting time and backed up on most holes through 15. Trying to cram more players (and $) in took much of the fun out of a fine afternoon. The delayed start was more bothersome than the slow play, but it was a 6 hour round... Course in fine shape despite the drought and practice facility is excellent. Bunkers could use some fresh, un-compacted sand.

The course, considering the drought, is in very good condition, but as always the greens are frustratingly difficult to read with deceiving contours.

Course was looking good! The staff has done a nice job of weathering the drought. Greens are in decent shape and the fairways were green and played nicely. It's a busy course and pace of play lagged a bit at times. Not bad overall though, especially for the price!

Grabbed a Hot Deal tee time (5:55 am) for only $16 (plus the ever-growing fee) and got incredible weather. It was warm and clear and with virtually no one in front of me, I was able to sail through in just over 3 hours.

The tee boxes were a little beat up but the fairways were in good shape. The layout is not long but fun and challenging over beautiful terrain. The greens are the best feature of Tilden; in good shape with a variety of slopes and tiers.

I had a veggie breakfast burrito at the turn which was an incredible compliment to a beautiful morning. The snack bar/restaurant at the turn provides good food and quality service, although the phone to order on 9 tee is often broken.

All in all, Tilden Park is a fun round, especially if you can avoid the crowds by playing ultra-early or in the twilight.

I always love playing this golf course. They had a good deal that day we got breakfast lunch and golf for 40 bucks

My home course and favorite course, love playing this bad boy. Honestly the only issue is that the course gets so crowded that I only like playing very early AM rounds or twilight.

Beautiful surroundings, really nice greens. Nice practice facility. Great course for the $$.

Showed up a 1/2 hr befor tee time. And didn't tee off till 45 mins after tee time due to fog delay that they never recovered from. No cart lady.

Foggin A.

I got to play this historic course on a beautiful day in the afternoon. The course is very hilly, several shots are blind and most of the fairways are sloped requiring good aim toward the far edges of the fairway in order to allow enough room for your ball to roll out. The tee boxes are fair and in good shape. The greens are in excellent shape, however they have a lot of slope on them and on several occasions I thought there should have been a clowns mouth or windmill for that kind of unusual roll. They were cut well so once you got the understanding of the false fronts and extreme undulations it enabled planning to avoid pitfalls. We played 25 holes before dark and met two groups of partners. Speed of play for a Monday was very slow, so don't go if you only have 4 hours. Overall I really enjoyed the course and the people I met, and would definitely go back again time permitting.

Love this course, get you play all your wedges. Greens are tough! Love the lay out. Great place to beat the heat of the east bay.
I'll be going back!

It would be nice if they offered a meatless lunch selection, at least one

Poor course management. Way too many people out there at one time. Took over six hours to play 18. Too expensive if you're going to cram that many ppl in.

Don't golf there on the weekend. Played it on Saturday. Had a 12:33 tee time finally teed off at 1:00. Finished the front 9 at 4:15. Never experienced that before. Played there on a week day and it was slow but nothing like that. Better management and not over booking could fix that and it's not a bad course.
