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.

Looking up
Course conditions were better than expected based on reviews. There were no issues with playability, Enjoyed the links style layout and variety of holes. With continued improvement will be a desirable place to play. Got a great deal on golfnow, and would definitely play again. Yeah bunkers are overgrown but not a major issue, only a couple tee blocks need improvement. At current prices don't fret about playing you'll get good value. Not a difficult course to walk.
Improved
Course is improved after years of neglect, greens are in good shape, bunkers are grown over with weeds, fairways are in fair condition...the rough has been left to grow wild...don't even bother looking for your ball...all in all can't beat the price if you can keep it in the fairways & lift out of bunkers
Still needs lots of work, but getting better with new ownership.
Range
The course is getting much better.
NOTE... there is no range
Rogers Pick
The course is a great improvement since June'
New carts are very nice.
You are one of the few courses that have Golf Now available. Don't give that away!!
You have a long ways to go to get back to where you were 10 yrs. ago.
Stay positive on your long journey.
Definitely Getting better
First of all, green revived.
Fairway getting better.
Bunkers are still bad, but hopefully better next year.
Getting better
This course is getting better. Management seems to be working hard. Nice layout- but still a bit of work to do.
Coming
Course was left to go to ruin but with new Super it is starting to come back
Course in need of repairs
Good layout but repairs to course are needed.
Great opportunity for a course in this area as community is rapidly growing.
