Tilden Park is one of my favorite California spots. The park is located in the Berkley Hills to the East of Berkley. The drive up the hills to the park affords terrific views of San Francisco Bay. Tilden Park Golf Course is an excellent course and is located within the park. The course overall is well designed and and a real challenge. A lot of dog-leg holes and many trees to create troubles. Warning I only recommend this course if you play it during the Spring + Summer + Fall Seasons .... Winter is a no go because occationally you will have frost delay and the frozen ground. This is an example of the many micro-climates you have in California. Winter at Tilden can be iffy, yet optimum for courses 20 miles away.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
