Castro Valley hosts this mini golf spot that's an affiliate of the Golfland family and features its two 18-hole ranges perfect for beginners and experts alike. After a few rounds on the green, consider venturing into their arcades to play some good old fashioned video games (Time Crisis and other dual player shooters, Mario Kart and other racing games, and fighting games) and skill games (like skee ball, table air hockey, and claw machines). Be wary, however, for those who have game cards from other Golflands, they're location specific so they won't work here unless you have one from this spot. Starting from the giant parking lot which is just off of a busy street, you'll make your way through the gates and stroll up the long walkway to the front desk where you'll register to get your clubs and balls (you'll get your choice from among a few colors). From there, you'll have your pick of the two courses, one for novices and one for the more adventurous. Make your way through the obstacles and mark your scorecard to determine the winner of bragging rights! We came for a birthday party and logistically, they have the main room amongst the beginner course which is well lit from all the open windows but I believe they have another space near the arcade for those looking for a more enclosed, private gathering. Once the guests arrived, they hosted an orientation and got the members all equipped and ready to go. The youngsters had a lot of fun and can't wait to return! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. You'll interact with them more at the arcades especially if you'll be redeeming prizes with your hard-earned digital tickets. The ticket values on the top tier prizes were pretty large but for frequent visitors or lucky winners, you can get some pretty neat stuff here. The mini prizes definitely reminded me of my times at the arcades when I was a kid, very nostalgic! Overall, Golden Tee Golfland is a well-maintained, family friendly environment conducive to an awesome time outdoors as well as an exhilarating experience soaking up the old school arcade vibe. We accumulated a ton of steps during our visit here and the kids could not stop hitting the greens to get their fluorescently colored balls into the holes. The obstacles are fun - there are water effects and moving doors and bridges. While most of them functioned as expected, there were a few hiccups with some like balls getting stuck or certain doors just not functioning as expected. For wetter seasons, the holes for the balls do end up pooling which makes picking the balls out a bit of an unpleasant endeavor. For being exposed to the outdoors, the place was in pretty good shape, however. It's a bummer that the Golflands don't have a unified system for the game cards as it just incentivizes families to just pick one and stick with it instead of venturing out and exploring the other amazing locations like this one. If you're a local, this is a great place to take a date or the family - it'll tee you up for a good time!

The road to the golf course is beautiful with trees on both sides. I always walk with my golf cart, but booking online it only had the option with cart. I was glad that they forced us to pay for the golf cart, BTW, when you book online the night before, you have to pay for the tee time non refundable with a credit card. If you want to walk which is a little difficult and slow due to many hilly fairways, you must call the pro shop to book. I didn't see anyone walking on last Friday. There are 2 courses on this establishment, there's one 9 holes and one 18 holes. The check-in pro shop is across from the cart return area, hard to see, a small house, may be it's still in renovation? The driving range is right next to it. BTW, it's a little difficult to find a parking spot close to the pro shop, the best is to park, then check in to get a cart and go to the car to get the clubs. Anyhow, the first hole is right there at the golf carts. I could see the hill already. It's beautiful. The fairways are very well kept, plenty of grass but many bushes on the sides, easy to lose balls if they went in there. Many fairways are quite narrow, and a few that have flags up in the hills to guide people for teeing off due to blind fairways. The greens were just aerated a few weeks, still very thick and spotty but puttable. Many greens are quite small although some are big. I like number 9 par 3 on the top hitting to the bottom of the hill, beautiful but quite challenging. The 18 hole is amazing, par 6 and so vast, long, hilly, and beautiful. Love this hole. Most of the holes have wonderful views of the valleys, canyons, I love the scenery. Ah, at the end of the 11th hole, the BBQ grills smelled so good that I had to order the Cheese Burger and believe it or not it's the best $13 cheese burger anywhere at any price. The young lady did it so well, so perfect and I even had a bag of chips to go with it. She deserved a great tip. The prices on weekdays are quite reasonable, for Senior like me, only $43 including cart which is inexpensive. Yes, I'll come back here again and shoot a better score than the first one due to not being familiar with the golf course.

I am not an avid golfer, it would be hard to say…read morethat I am a golfer at all, besides the fact that I pick up a set of clubs once every few years. Despite that, I can have fun playing, especially when I have plenty of spare balls and the course is a par 3. I think I probably found as many balls as I lost, so that was an added bonus. You can usually see some wildlife on the course. There is a nice little putting green to get warmed up before you play or to try and relive some of the missed puts from the round you just finished. It is inexpensive, public and usually not overly crowded.

I used to play at their very first location in a small room on Park Street in Alameda, more than a decade ago, and the current spot is a total 180, updated, spacious, and offering an arcade, pool tables, and snack bar serving pizza, sandwiches, chicken wings, and twister fries, as well as sweet treats and alcoholic beverages. The mini golf course has a similar theme to their SF location, the props and holes showcasing familiar landmarks in and around the city. Some moving parts, but not a whole lot. Challenge level is minimal, but it was still fun. There were some slow families on the course, but I was able to move around them and do the different holes at my own pace with little or no waiting needed. Easy parking too in the parking lot shared amongst the neighboring businesses.

The course is in great condition and it's somewhat linked style even though I have a tendency to stay in the fairway if you happen to hit the ball left or right your steel have a shot to get to the green exactly just they also have areas for putting and chipping if you want to work on your short game and they have a nice driving range as well and you never have to wait. It's always moving along well and like I said the course is in great condition. They have lots of equipment at the pro shop if you need anything, whether they be shoes, socks, ball, markers, tees, or clothing. I'll continue to go there because it's conveniently located and it's easy to get out and you can get around quite efficiently

It is a beautiful contoured layout with midsize, fairways and true rolling greens. The spacious grounds had a delightful green and fecund aire . A welcome feel for a January afternoon during Rev Dr Martin Luther King weekend! Superb drainage is just one of the great features of the course ...with all the December and early January precipitation and foul weather our playing partners indicated that they seldom missed their regular appointed rounds. We were fortunate to be paired with two very splendid amateur women players - one from Stanford and another a consultant with Apple Management... So you never know who you're going to meet at Corica. My friend - a local denizen - was just beginning to explore the challenges of the game. ... it was a difficult course to learn and implement swing changes on. Though the driving range provides elite swing technology, it lacks key indicators such as spin and ball speed, that are helpful in teaching a new player, but it's still a feature that most driving ranges around the country lack. The par threes were particularly bland and I found the 17th almost unplayable. I also thought the weekend greens fee was exorbitant close to $151 +2 cart fees, plus a 75 nonrefundable non-applicable reservation fee, which is total nonsense. The pro shop is as unimaginable as any I've ever visited thank God for the restaurant and the wonderful people that run that place

This Redwood Canyon showed up, but not on the front page. I checked out the golf course website and decided to play here on a Thursday. Amazingly this one is the one I had my wedding 23 years ago. This golf course is so beautiful, I have to say it's the best kept secret of the East Bay. The course is a short or average 18 holes, but it's not easy. The fairways are actually narrow so you have to hit straight, easy to lose balls in the rough or the hills or the creeks. The fairways are well kept, green and beautiful. Every hole is a scenery of trees and canyon, so beautiful with some bambi walking around but also some rattlesnakes too so watch out when looking for balls in the bushes. The greens are so well kept but somehow every hard to put, none of the holes are flat, all curvy like a dome although they're not breaking badly, just not flat, sometimes like sitting on a dome, balls can roll either side of the holes. The price is amazingly inexpensive, the membership club is only $40/year, yes, year not month and you get discounts on everything, especially green fees. Just a few rounds, it's paid for. For Seniors like me, after 62, it's only $27 walking at this time, perfectly for walking, exercising 2 times a week without breaking the bank. Thursday special LOL. There's a women club that starts at 9-9:30AM, if you play after this time, it's a little slow until the 10th holes because they finished at the 9th holes most of them. My Verizon iPhone 15 had no signal through out the golf course, some ATT phones had some signals but not all holes. Anyhow, looking at the gate going into the wedding area, I remembered my happiest day of my life 23 years ago. Wow, time flies.

I had just finished a round of golf with my friends Monday afternoon 3/17 between 2:30pm - 2:55pm. After returning my cart I rushed to the rest room to find a female custodian mopping the floors. Mind you we've been playing for the last 4-5 hours. I swiftly said excuse me as I walked behind her. To my surprise she yells, "You're not even going to say excuse me?!" repeated this 3 times as I apologized if she didn't hear me but went on with her attitude anyway. There was another golfer in the restroom who felt that was absolutely unnecessary he heard me but it was apparent she didn't. Needless to say it will be the first and last time me and my friends organize our tee time here. Never experienced anything like this at any golf course in the world! Maybe aim that energy to your mop next time cause the bathroom was absolutely disgusting! A good time ruined by a rude staff member. Unnecessarily aggressive and uncomfortable especially after a good round of golf.

The historical architecture and elegance immediately stood out to us. From the high vaulted ceilings and exposed beams to the stunning chandeliers and large windows that fill the space with natural light.

We also took advantage of the golf course at hole 11, where the sunset provided a truly breathtaking backdrop for photos. Another major reason we chose this venue was the exceptional communication and organization. Andrea and Sally were incredibly responsive, always answering our questions promptly and thoroughly. From the planning process to the wedding day itself, everything ran seamlessly. Our guests repeatedly commented on how smooth the entire day felt and how convenient it was to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one place. Many also complimented the delicious food and wonderful staff. We truly could not be happier with our experience at this venue. Highly recommend for anyone who is planning their wedding here.
