7 reviews for Mill Valley Golf Course
Another great place to drink and drive.
By the way. This is a message to all the locals who you will inevitably get stuck playing a round with. -----------
Nobody gives a shit what you scored on this hole last week. I could give a rats ass about how your birdie putt lipped out the other day. Why the fuck would I want to know why you hit your 7 iron to lay up on number 8 blah blah blah......Zip it!
I want to hear a story about how your 5 iron slipped out of your hands on number 7 and killed a couple squirrels before disappearing forever into the poison oak and you went digging for it anyway just to get a body sized rash for a week and a half.
Now that is something worth sharing.

This is a great 9-hole, walking course! Be prepared for sore legs the next morning, but you will love the views. The green fees are reasonable and the course is challenging for my handicap.
They are closed until 10am on Mondays and the attendant is a little rough around the edges.
Overall a nice place to golf (bring extra balls!!)
"What the hell are you doing to me?!"
That was my body after playing 9 holes here yesterday. This course is definitely hilly. I've never felt so out of shape! But like others have said, the views are absolutely gorgeous. Also, you'll find lots of lost balls in you happen to lose your own in the rough. I guess other players don't bother to look for their own lost balls.
Yay for the discount if you're a city resident! $12 for weekdays.

Was a little tough for a beginner like me.
I lost 4 golf balls here once... and they only have 9-holes! Ok so they do have different tee options to simulate 18-holes when you replay the course. Their "Front 9" consists of 6 par-4 and 3 par-3, by no means did their 62.6/104 rating/slope feel that easy. Lots of hills so be prepared to go up and down (no pun intended). 6th hole creek comes deceivingly into play & 7th hole looks easy on paper, but watch out for the mature trees, greenside bunkers on front, and sloping hills toward the back.
Great views especially in sunny weather... The course is kept in decent condition as it's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Didn't see a range; there's not much room anyways with all the surrounding trees.
Fees were $19 on weekends for non-residents. I would like to come back for a decent challenge on a 9-hole... too bad you gotta think about GGB toll if in SF.

Its nice to leave the old "cheese breeze" hovering over San Francisco these days and head out across the bridge. Its like emerging into a whole new world, where the sun is shining, birds are chirping, and little girls go biking past in short jean shorts. Its actually summer. Almost forgot what that feels like.
I digress. This is supposed to be about the Mill Valley Municipal Golf Course which, when I have 18 bucks and a couple hours to kill, is a great place to hit a few balls. Stunning views of Mt. Tamalpais from the 3rd and 4th holes and a well maintained course make for pleasurable golf. It actually smells like summer too, the fresh cut grass and leaves.
Its a great alternative to Golden Gate and you can wear shorts unlike Gleneagles or the Presidio. I also found 10 balls in the bushes off the tee at the 7th, which pretty much paid for my round. Four!!

Great challenging course that is hilly and scenic. $19.50 for 9 on Sunday. It falls short of five starts because of the grouchy pro shop counter guy. Otherwise, great spot for a round.
Yes! A very challenging 9 hole course for a great price. Quite the hidden gem this course. Pristine Mt. Tam views and hilly fairways. Only bummer is hitting tee shots off mats on a couple holes. But the good outweighs the bad by far. Don't play here if it is your first time. You probably won't have too much fun, and you will lose golfballs.
