Lahanton in Truckee ends with two par fours, followed by two par threes finishing up with two par fives.  I think it is still in the Golfweek Top 100 modern.  Tom Weiskopf design.

Flossmoor is technically a 4-5 finish but 17 is a more difficult 5 than 18.

I see more birdie 4's on 18 than par 4's on 17.

Hopmeadow  CC which is a 1961 Geoffrey Cornish design in Simsbury CT finishes 5, 5 with the caveat that it is not IMO good to great.

What about Connemara in the west of Ireland?

17 is quite typical of a Hackett design with a steeply elevated green set in to a dune at the end... 18 is one of the best finishers in the country.
