Peacefully tucked in and around the hills, a short drive south of fast-paced Silicon Valley, Cinnabar Hills Golf Club blends championship-caliber golf with spectacular views. San Jose's first public course to open in 30 years was designed by award-winning architect John Harbottle III.
Each hole at Cinnabar Hills Golf Club has been crafted to maintain the natural slope of the area and to protect the wildlife residing here. Hundreds of old oaks were incorporated into the layout and seedlings from those oaks were nurtured and planted to further enhance the landscape.
Inspiring the golf club's logo, red-tail hawks can be seen flying over the Cinnabar Hills or even perched in a tree. Named for the rich, red ore mined here during the 1800's, Cinnabar Hills offers golfers three distinct nines: the Canyon, the Lake and the Mountain courses.
Cinnabar Hills has been recognized as a top course by many Silicon Valley associations as the top golf course in the area. A few of Cinnabar's awards are listed below-
- "Best Public Golf Course in the Silicon Valley for 5 years in a row - 2003-2007"
