Friends of Mill Valley Golf Course

About Friends of Mill Valley Golf Course

Nestled in the rolling hills of Marin County just north of San Francisco, this municipal gem offers one of the most scenic and affordable golf experiences in the Bay Area. The course winds through mature oak trees and natural terrain that gives it a surprisingly intimate feel despite being a public facility. What sets it apart is the dramatic elevation changes and spectacular views of Mount Tamalpais – you'll find yourself pausing between shots just to take in the scenery. The layout rewards strategic thinking over pure distance, with several holes requiring careful club selection to handle the hilly terrain and avoid the native oaks that come into play. Walking is not only allowed but recommended here, as it lets you fully appreciate the natural beauty and helps you read the slopes that can dramatically affect your ball's roll. For the quality of golf and setting you get, especially considering Marin County real estate prices, this represents exceptional value that locals have been quietly enjoying for years.
