Cinnabar Hills Golf Club - Mountain/Lake

It was a nice round of golf! A little bit pricey but worthy it! A little bit tough though. The greens were well maintained. The fairways were so green, cut well and soft. I would highly recommend this course to friends and I would definitely come back over and ober again as long as they offer a good deal.

Beautiful course, challenging layout but fair.

Best of Best golf course

Beautiful conditions. Great layout and friendly staff made it a great day for golf. I brought a couple friends who never played here before that really enjoyed it and ranked it as one of the top courses in the area. Will definitely be returning to play again

Great layout, weekday price on Golfnow, but lots of wet fairways and easy to lose balls even in short rough by fairways. Take many balls after rainy days... you need them. I wish course was more dryer and rough was cut, too. Promising great fun with friends or co-workers, even with your boss. Weekend rate is little high for the area. Will go back to play soon if discounted.

Nice course , challenging , fun, exciting

Bring extra balls and have a good time.

Too hard for high handicap, causing slow play.

All three nines are great in their own right. The best combo to play is mountain to canyon but the lake course is no slouch. If you can snag a tee time before 9am, do so. As with every other course in the South Bay the wind picks up gradually throughout the day and the prevailing wind makes the course play 3-5 strokes higher per side if it get over 20mph.

Great course that was in excellent shape, greens are fast, but roll true. Online rates are very reasonable for a course of this condition.

This course is NOT a good walk. As a cart course, they need improved access to the Tees and Greens. The courses at Cinnabar Hills, (three 9-hole courses) -- Are excellently cared for by the management and superintendent staff. The Teeing grounds were flawless: as were the fairways, as were the greens. Every interaction with the golf course staff was top-notch.

The service at Cinnabar Hills along with the beautiful golf course, and the awesome views of nature/wildlife, is something not to be missed.

Course Tip:

Always play to the fairways, from there you can effectively manage your way throughout the course. Failing this, you will have to navigate on often un-walkable terrain, filled with gullies, washes, and hollows. In the case of the latter, go for the horse and pack-mule option at the Cart Barn...

3 challenging 9s, always in great shape, great staff.

Course was in good shape consider the cold weather and forst.. greens are fabulous hope they don't mess then up ha ha course in great shape . Just need some more Marshall guys taking 20 mins a hole . Good place to play a bit expensive for winter hours ..

In the winter, all one can really ask for is good greens. Cinnabar greens are always the best around. Whatever you shoot, you WON'T be able to blame it on the greens. Really good layout.

The greens were very, very good, meaning smooth and fast.

The course, however, for the first time ever, is pretty scratchy, with tufts of grass surrounded by dirt in many places, including in the fairway.

I had at least four shots from the fairway that were essentially played off of bare soil.

Hopefully El Nino will provide a healthy "flush" of salts from the rootzone and provide adequate reservoir levels to permit normal amounts of irrigation this coming season.

Course has always been in good condition,they have four nines and so makes for good variety.The greens were in excellent shape in spite of being late season.
They have four sets of tees and so good for golfers at all levels.For the money this course is excellent value.

Always nice to play at cinnebar. Pace of play is always good. Course is beautiful and the scenery is always great. Overall a great course to play.

We played the Lake and Canyon course. Both 9 holes post great challenges. Course plays true to its slope. Greens are super fast. Overall, I rate this course A.

In spite of this drought, fairways pretty good shape. Greens excellent, very fast. Best public course in the valley.

A very challenging course with no two holes alike. Course is fair with fairways wider then they appear. Beware of poor shots, they can cost you dearly, but the course is a lot of fun to play.

Great course with changes of elevation that puts a premium on placement of shots off the tee. Greens are quick and undulating, don't get caught on the wrong side of the flag.

I first heard about this course from family members and friends, and I had wanted to play for quite a while. The drive up here past Calero Lake is beautiful and provides great views. A few weeks ago, I played Mountain and Lake, and while I liked those, I would have to say that my favorite nine is the Canyon.

Today I played the Lake course and then the Canyon course. The Lake course heads out towards Calero Lake, and also has a small lake of its own on the par-5 seventh. This nine incorporates the natural terrain quite well. My two favorite holes on this nine would be #4 and #8. From the Cinnabar tees, the fourth features a forced carry of around 150 yards uphill, and a bit more if you try to be aggressive. Hitting tee shots trying to cut off as much as possible down the right side is quite a lot of fun. #8 is a short par three over a large wetland area to green surrounded on three sides by the hazard. The green features many contours that make putting a lot of fun.

The Canyon nine is my favorite nine. The Lake nine does a great job of incorporating natural terrain, but Canyon does it even better. Holes #2 and #9 feature huge downhill tee shots. #3 and #4 are two relatively short par fours, but they are quite different. #3 is under 300 yards, and requires a good layup to be able to access a very tricky green. Hole #4 requires a big drive to get over the large tree in the middle of the fairway and a flip wedge up to a green with a very picturesque lake nearby. This nine has a lot more hazards than the others, especially hole #6, a shorter par five that still requires thinking.

All in all, I really love this course, as it has great views and well-designed holes.
