Tilden Park Golf Course

The only positive thing I can say is the snack shack was great. The course was not in good shape. Not one tee box has grass :( tee times were to close and they had a tournament going on. :(

We teed off at 6:00 am and we thought the pace of play would have been good, but it took almost 6 hours to play. The pace of play was terrible and the conditions for 6 am were clear. The weather was perfect to where you could see SF.
The greens were in ok good condition but the fairways definitely need help.
When we made the turn at 9:00 am the food wasn’t available but there was a guy there eating with other employees. . I would advise that they open the food shack at least 2 hours after the first group goes out.
We played and right when we left one of my buddies accidently left his range finder on the cart. We called literally 30 minutes after and they said it wasn’t there. We called multiple times to see if someone had turned it in but they did not. We were the 4th group out and when we parked the golf cart it was back in the cart barn so no other golfer could have seen it. Definitely know that they are not honest at Tilden. This is very sad considering this a sport of integrity. Where is Tilden’s management and employee integrity?

My recommendations: If I owned the course I would invest a few bucks into some adequate ball washers. There should be one on each hole not one every third hole. Also they should be ball washers that actually work and have some water in them. I would also repaint the 200, 150 and 100 yard markers. Some of them are badly faded.

The greens are in pretty good condition as well as the fairways.

My recommendations. 1.
It shouldn’t be that difficult to have a working ball washer on every hole. 2. Please repaint the 200, 150, and 100 yard markers. Many of them have faded badly.

Good job on the greens and the fairways are looking better than they used to.

Great day for golf and the conditions perfect! pace of play great and the greens a little slow but in great condition! Tildon is always a great place to play!!!!

I’ve played Tilden a dozen times it’s always a great time, tight challenging course so scenic, fantastic layout and the greens were in beautiful shape! Just so far out of the way…. But a beautiful drive…. Can’t wait to play it again!

Excellent pace for a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Never had to wait very long and was mainly playing golf instead of complaining about the group ahead.
Check in was easy and friendly. No attitude and made me feel like a regular. Prices at snack bar/cafe are very reasonable, tasty hot dogs.

Here are my recommendations: 1.Replace the ball washers.
2.Repaint the 200, 150 and 100 yard markers.

The greens and fairways are in better condition than they were a year ago.

Great course design. First time on. Pace was slow. Greens were slow (need mowing). Need a range for warm up though…. The one person net for practice isn’t enough.

Course has really improved in last year or two. Greens are in very good shape. Newly remodeled Pro shop. Improved dining amenities would really make this course. Abundant wildlife roam the course: Saw several Deer, cranes, many species of birds and even Wiley Coyote made a cameo(see photo) and other than the occasional “FORE!” All you hear is nature at its finest/birds in the background. Worth a play!

I always feel challenged and also comforted when I fold here! It’s hard and easy at the same time!

Beautiful course but needs more signage ie direction to next hole/club house, distance to drop zones & holes. We found carts coming at us when teeing off so a bit confusing. Unfortunately we hit into forward group on a blind hole.
Loved playing in the redwoods.
