San Jose - Santa Cruz Golf Guide
When you think Silicon Valley, your mind probably jumps to tech giants, start-ups, and endless innovation. But in the land of gadgets and code, there’s a solid lineup of golf courses that deserve just as much attention. If you're a golfer visiting the Valley or a local looking for a scenic escape, here’s why Silicon Valley’s golf scene is worth a visit.
From historic fairways to modern layouts, Silicon Valley’s courses cater to every type of golfer. Pasatiempo Golf Club in Santa Cruz (okay, a little outside the Valley, but worth the drive) is a masterpiece by Alister MacKenzie, known for its challenging layout and stunning views. Meanwhile, Cinnabar Hills Golf Club in San Jose delivers sweeping vistas and well-maintained greens, ideal for a weekend round. And if you’re closer to Palo Alto, Stanford Golf Course is exclusive but opens its fairways for those lucky enough to snag a tee time.
