CINNABAR HILLS GC

The twin eighteen at this Silicon Valley gem rewards precision over power, with elevation changes that'll test your club selection on nearly every approach. Architect Robert Muir Graves carved fairways through rolling oak-studded terrain that feels more Sonoma than suburban, creating strategic angles where a well-placed drive opens up scoring opportunities that brute force simply can't match. The greens hold true but demand respect—miss in the wrong spots and you'll face putts that break harder than your weekend foursome's resolve.
