Sugar Isle Golf Course was designed by Jack Kidwell, a familiar name among southern Ohio golf courses. Water is a prominent feature of the course, Kidwell incorporated it on more than half of the holes. Some 20 white sand bunkers are strategically placed throughout the layout, providing a scenic contrast to the water and lush greens. For an added challenge, many of the fairways are lined with mature trees although there is some room for error, which makes them more accessible. It is a course that will make you think but it is not too intimidating for beginners. The versatility makes it popular for outings and tournaments. Sugar Isle has even hosted the area's high school programs for more than 30 years. In addition to the golf course, there is also a driving range and large putting green.

An excellent course in a rural setting

I enjoyed playing the course and it was in great condition. It should be noted, however, that the course does not have water available on the course. The golf carts seem to be well maintained and ours was clean. The 18th green is an extremely interesting par 3, surrounded by water and approached from an elevated tee.

The course was in good shape with the exception of a couple tee boxes.

An outing was booked after we had made our tee times, the staff was very nice and went out of their way to accommodate us. Even though the pace of play was slow we still enjoyed ourselves.

Hurry up and wait

There is not a slower pace of play in the Miami valley. Staff can be cordial and be rude depends on the day. Not a place to teach young ones to golf simpy because the staff doesn't appear to want that business. Not a good golf course, not well enough maintained to be that uppity .

A long drive

Nice course. Just outside of town. A long drive from Wilmington but it was worth the trip to play it once this year. Its well worth going to play. Challenging layout. Nice condition and great price. Some good character at certain points. Out in the middle of no where for most though.
