Circle Oaks is an unincorporated community in the hills to the northeast of the Napa Valley in Napa County, California, United States. Created in 1964, this wildland interface has thrived since, growing into a small country community outside 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]
Circle Oaks was threatened, but not significantly damaged, by the 2017 Atlas and 2020 Hennessey fires.[1]
