Great service and facilities. I have treated many local and international guests at Cinnabar Hills, and we have always enjoyed the experience. They have 3 9-hole layouts, each with their own personality, unique features and challenges, some not for the faint of heart. Practice facilities are very nice for a public venue. Pro shop has good selection of products. I... More

Have played the 3 different nines, and enjoyed each. Varied elevations, water, bunkers, and dog legs. Play to your ability from different tee boxes. Fun time, new experience!

Today was the second time I played this course in 3 years. It's stuck with me from the first time! The views from Canyon 7, 8 and 9 are simply indescribeable. 9 being a Par 5 from the highest point coming down at least 50 m ending just above the clubhouse. On a clear day you can see the SF... More

I could not get enough of this course. The panoramic views are unsurpassed anywhere in the region. This Course rates up there with the top courses.

A lot of target golf. Tough and a lot of elevation changes. I'm not sure I would play there again. Bring extra balls and enjoys the views.

Cinnabar is an old favorite for all of us playing golf in SJ. This is not for beginners, make sure you bring your game to a pretty challenging course. Not a fancy place, but for a public course kept in great shape, and offers 3 nines that all have their own set of challenges.

Beautiful view and club. A long way to drive to get there for lunch. Food is average but enjoyable. Maybe will try it for dinner as the dining room is beautiful.
