Sawmill Creek Golf Resort & Spa
About
Sawmill Creek Golf Resort & Spa is southwestern Ontario's premier golfing destination. Located just east of Sarnia and less than an hour from London, the golf course is a conveniently situated getaway that feels much further thanks to an idyllic location along the shores of Lake Huron. The course is a par-71, links-style design that is challenging enough for avid golfers but still playable for beginners. The gently rolling landscape was enhanced even further with the addition of more than a million tons of earth, which was carefully molded to look as though it had always been there. The meticulously crafted mounding adjoins the fairways, providing a continuous flow throughout the golf course. In addition to the mounding, golfers will also face large bunkers, tall fescue, bluegrass rough, and desert-like waste areas. It may appear daunting, but Sawmill Creek is not as tough as it looks.

Excellent value in clubhouse for dinner
The course was very nice and the deal was very good for the quality of the course, but the best experience was after the round. The clubhouse dining room had an excellent dinner with wings at $0.50 each and $12 pitchers of beer. The service for our meal after was excellent with very attentive waitress and excellent food and value.
Compact course
The design of the course is such that they seem to have squeezed in the track in a limited space. Lots of dog-leg holes, most of which had a sharp turn in the fairway. You could play the course without a driver, in fact, it's best to keep the driver in the bag on several par 4 holes.
Staff were friendly.
We were the first group out in the morning so we made great time. Things behind us seemed to be moving slow so we were happy to get a quick round in.
Great Course
Pace was slow due to nice weather and lots of people playing.
Great Course
very good course, in excellent shape after winter, greens very fast, challenging course
Good early season course
Nicely laid out and well kept. This course will mature nicely through the years. I was surprised by how dry it was for April. Played with some friendly members and was and had a great time.
This coarse has the best grass we have ever played on locally
Fabulous grass and in great shape, interesting holes, right club selection and some luck it is a fun coarse to play. A little tricky finding the next hole a couple of times as it is not well marked. We got a great price on GolfNow and loved our morning.
Fast greens
This course has very fast greens.The wind comes out of no where and will affect your play.Nice challenging course.True links style.Would definitely play again.
fun challenge
My first time playing here and I can't wait to go back. Some beautiful golf holes! Challenging layout but fair. Very well maintained course.
Great outing, good value at discounted rate
Enjoyed the course despite heavy rains the few days before. Drainage was good with only a few unplayable lies. Probably too many sand traps to maintain properly. Fairways and greens in excellent shape. Staff was very friendly and food was good. I wish course was closer to London, but will return again.
Good Course to Enjoy
This is a very nice course that is usually very well maintained. As it happens they had just aerated and top dressed the greens. Needless to say the greens were still not too bad to play. The pace of play was wonderful with no waiting. This course can present a number of challenges with water on the elbow of a dog leg, water 1/2 way round a couple of greens, creeks and brush to carry over and well placed traps (found a couple of those along the way!!). The course has new homes along one side of #10 fairway and the clubhouse is lovely. There are facilities for weddings and large gatherings, as well as overnight or weekend stays. Nice quiet electric carts with lots of power and just an overall good experience. Don't hesitate on this one.
Varied challenges make this course fun to play.
The course was busy with a member tournament and an outdoor event. My wife and I were allowed to go out on our own and we finished the course in a little less than 4 hours. We had a great weather day and had a fun golf day. The staff were great and the greens were fast. An enjoyable experience for the two of us.
Great day on a great course
A great course that I always enjoy coming back to play. The weather this year has been extremely good and the course really shows it.
If you like the feel of an inland loinks style of course, fescue and open fairways, you'll like Sawmill. The greens were also in great shape, only a couple were a little rough!
And the price was great
Great value, great pace, great day!
We booked last minute, and really scored on this one. Weather was perfect, course was in great shape and the pace of play was surprisingly fast. We even scored well to top it all off. we will definitely be back.
Restaurant Staff Horrible
We booked our round online through Golf Now. Proshop staff and Starter were top notch. Restaurant staff were horrible.
Tried to get a drink and sandwich after 9 holes in the restaurant and the guy there was short and impersonal, almost like we were bothering him.
After our 18 we went up to the outdoor patio for a drink and lunch. The guy from inside was out on the patio and ignored us. There was also a lady working, she ignored us as well. They were busy with a camping group from across the street, but we weren't even acknowledged !! After 15 minutes of waiting for someone to ask us if we wanted drinks, menus etc, we got up and walked out.
What a shame, as the course itself was great and we really enjoy playing here, but the restaurant experience was horrible.
