Excellent course

Tough but fair course. Not for the weekend hacker. Course is in fantastic shape and greens are well manicured but fast. Scenic views of the valley and delicious food round out a phenomenal golf experience. Best public course in the South Bay.

Cinnabar Hills is a Gold Mine.

Cinnabar Hills is as good as golf gets in the coastal mountains of California. The 3 distinct nine hole courses (Lake, Mountain and Canyon) are all breathtaking with elevated tees, expansive fairways and undulating fast rolling greens. A “Must Play”.

Awesome course, worst round I’ve had in awhile

It’s a great course, good condition, great use of elevation changes, and well positioned bunkers. Wish I didn’t look like an idiot the whole round, would be a fun course to play well on.

Fun track

Great conditions and interesting layout. Greens were firm and fast but pins were not put in good spots given the 20 mph wind. They should take high wind into consideration before putting a pin where you have no chance of getting to it. Nevertheless, would definitely play it again. I did not get to use much of the practice facilities but they looked comprehensive and well maintained. Aside from the obvious big swing breaks on side hills, overall the greens don’t break as much as you might think.
