Circle Oaks is an unincorporated community in the hills to the northeast of the Napa Valley. Created in 1964, this wildland interface has thrived since, growing into a small country community outside of a bustling valley. Lots in the community are circular, with the areas between the circles ("triangles") considered to be non-developable "greenbelt", an idea supposedly envisioned by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The community was initially planned to have an airstrip and golf course, but these never materialized.[1]
