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.

Great staff
Awsome hard working and very friendly pro shop staff is awesome
Great to see Sawmill in great shape
Sawmill is in great shape and worth playing. They are working hard every day to make it worth while playing Howard
First Round Not My Last
The course is being re-energized after being closed. Enjoyed the lay-out and work was being performed on bunkers and irrigation which will improve the conditions. Pro shop and bar staff were friendly. We were a group of 8 (members at another local course) and we all agreed we would return to play again.
Course is starting to look great but
Course in great shape but management is non existent.group in front were slow and a little drunk.Marshall seem to think there job is riding a cart and nothing else.
St. THOMAS BOYS
Excellent value has come a long way back since last year. Love the coupons, would gladly come back if coupons are available. As a group we travel for Friday golf and would definitely come if some sort of discount was available.
Not the Sawmill you remember
If you can get a good deal on tee-off, then go ahead and play. Greens are now playable, fairways are thin and bare in places. Rough is ok. The old fairway bunkers are completely overgrown, you can’t even see them. Might be 4 playable green side bunkers on the whole course. Par 3 tee decks are pretty beat up.
They are trying but they let the course get so bad, they have a long way to go before it is anything like pre-2020.
Coming along
Course was left in a mess turned a great course into a cow pasture. Thew son of the man who dd this has taken it over and is now trying to revive it. It is not back to its old self but the super he has now has performed miracles and it is playable
1/10
Had a tournament going on and still took reservations, pre booked with a cart got there and were told we had to walk. Marshall tried to sell us golf lessons on the 1st hole
Getting Better
This course is clearly getting the TLC it needs. Once all of the bunkers get renovated then this would be a 5 star.
