Johnny Miller

Poway, CA

Maderas Golf Club sits in the rolling foothills of Poway, an inland San Diego County community northeast of downtown. Johnny Miller and Robert Muir Graves designed the course, which opened in 1999 and runs through native chaparral terrain with substantial elevation change from tee to green. Canyons and ridgelines separate the holes, producing a sequence of dramatic uphill and downhill shots rather than a flat resort layout. Bunkering and green complexes take their shape from the topography instead of manufactured hazards. At roughly 7,167 yards it rewards precise iron play into sloped, well-defended greens.

Napa, CA

The North Course at Silverado Resort and Spa is located on a 1,200-acre property in Napa County, California, in the heart of Napa Valley wine country, with flat terrain shaded by old-growth oak and conifer trees. The course dates to the 1960s under Robert Trent Jones Sr. and Jr., and was substantially reworked in a 2011 renovation led by PGA Tour Hall of Famer Johnny Miller, who added length and reshaped bunkers while keeping the original routing. The finishing stretch includes a par-5 16th with Ross-style green drop-offs and a closing par-5 alongside water. The North Course hosts the PGA Tour's annual Fortinet Championship and is primarily used by resort guests and club members rather than unrestricted public play.

Henderson, NV

A public daily-fee course in the Tuscany Village community of east Henderson, about 20 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. Ted Robinson Jr. designed the course, which opened in 2003 as Tuscany Golf Club and was renamed Chimera in 2015 under new ownership. The par-72 layout plays 6,757 yards from the back tees across rolling desert terrain, with forgiving fairways, strategic bunkering and views of the Strip, downtown Las Vegas and Mt. Charleston. Chimera was the first course in Nevada with a TrackMan-powered driving range.

Napa, CA

The South Course at Silverado Resort in Napa was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and opened in 1967 as part of the historic Silverado estate property.

The course occupies gently rolling terrain shaded by mature oak trees north of downtown Napa, offering a relatively relaxed complement to the resort's North Course, and has been used for club and resort play for decades within the Napa Valley wine country setting.

Rocklin, CA

Whitney Oaks Golf Club is set in the rolling foothills near Rocklin, California, on former ranch land that includes granite outcroppings and mature oak trees. The property has a long local history, dating to a 19th-century ranch, and features water, wetlands and stands of live oaks throughout the layout. The course was designed by Johnny Miller in partnership with architect Fred Bliss and opened in the late 1990s. Bentgrass greens with notable contours and strategically placed bunkers give the layout its main challenge, and five sets of tees accommodate a range of playing abilities. Whitney Oaks operates as a semi-private club, with a clubhouse restaurant overlooking the 9th and 18th holes and banquet space used for weddings and other events.

Napa, CA

Eagle Vines Golf Club is an 18-hole course in the Napa Valley in American Canyon, California, set among working vineyards, oak groves and cherry trees. The layout was designed in part by World Golf Hall of Fame member Johnny Miller, incorporating some holes that date back to the 1970s from the neighboring Chardonnay Golf Club along with newer holes Miller helped design in the early 2000s. Vineyard rows and rolling hills line many fairways, and a replica of the Swilcan Bridge from the Old Course at St. Andrews crosses a creek on one hole. Eagle Vines operates a membership program but is open to public tee times, with a restaurant on site offering views of the course. It plays to par 72 across 18 holes, with five regular tee sets plus two additional distance options.

Saint Cloud, FL

Bliss and opened in November 2002 on a 260-acre wildlife preserve threaded with wetlands, pine stands, and natural ponds. The course has no homes fronting its fairways and is a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. In 2016 architect Mike Dasher led a renovation that reworked bunkers, rebuilt several greens, and converted the putting surfaces to TifEagle bermudagrass. Harmony hosted the 2007 Hooters Tour Michelob Ultra Classic.
