About Franklin Canyon Golf Course
Franklin Canyon Golf Course in Hercules plays to 6,594 yards from the championship tees and was laid out by golf course architect Robert Muir Graves.
The routing moves through two ponds and a number of tight doglegs, with large, undulating greens that reward accurate tee shots and place a premium on approach play. Each hole has its own character, and the property includes a clubhouse.
