Sugar Creek Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Sugar Creek Golf Course offers some of the best scenery of any course in the St. Louis area. Golfers can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside from the course's elevated tees. The course opened in 1990 with several improvements made in the following years. The layout is a manageable length at just under 6,100 yards. It is player-friendly enough for beginners to approach with confidence but there are also challenges in store for more advanced players. Water only comes into play on one hole but there are stands of trees lining the narrow fairways. The golf course will generously reward accuracy and good strategy though it is not overly punishing if you are slightly errant. In addition to the course, Sugar Creek G.C. also boasts an expansive practice range with 35 hitting stations.

Great Value
There are a lot of changes being made at Sugar Creek, all of them for the better. Renovations being made not only to the clubhouse but also to the back nine will continue to make this a great place to play. It’s great to see all the work being done and changes to the overall look of the course especially the back as I mentioned. The changes are most evident when you walk into the pro shop and interact with the staff. You will be hard pressed to find a better staff and everyone at Sugar Creek treated us like a valued guest… this isn’t always the case with other courses in the area — Without a doubt, the friendliest staff around.
Great day of golf
Had a 12 tee time, got to start a littler earlier. Perfect pace of play with Marshall’s keeping an eye.
Greens are in great conditions and the fairways are coming along.
Will definitely be back to play here.

We are glad to see you also rated the course conditions and our staff to be great during your game. Thank you for playing Sugar Creek Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
Great course, a hidden gem!
I love this course. I’ve played over 40 different courses in the STL area and the layout of this is one of the most unique I’ve seen. Don’t let holes 1-4 fool you, consider them a warmup. From 5-18, it gets extremely interesting and very challenging. Uphill, downhill and hardly any flat shots, even from the fairway. The 127 slope feels light to me. It’s comparable to other courses I’ve played with slopes of 133-135. Greens are in excellent shape, even after an all day tournament they hosted. For the money, it’s an excellent value. I’ll continue to come back regularly.
Hello, u314160743038. Thank you for visiting us at Sugar Creek Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
WOW
Last played here over three years ago and it was swampy and half the greens were ate up.
NOW —— WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!!!!
All the fairways were in great shape (except ten)
ALL the greens were full and smooth
Most overgrown and rough-areas were cleaned up and according to a sign on their bulletin board,cart paths and tee boxes were to be improved although I didn’t notice a bad tee box

Sugar Creek Golf Course
This is my favorite course to play around my current living location. The staff members are very respectful and are well trained. This is a very big course with fun different type of par hole lay outs. This course is not flat as it has ridges you tee off from. It personally doesnt bother me, but for others there are some cart paths that are gravel and have pot holes in some different locations throughout the course, but they are working on new pavement to put down. That would be my only complaint about the course. Some tee boxes are a little patchy, but thats all golf courses especially with the summer sun. The greens are cut at a perfect hight and are sprinkled very often with the system. Greens are not slow. Good concession area inside the club house to get on the turn for the back 9. Landscaping is pretty to look at as well.
Thank you for your review, LukasHummel. We will pass along your positive experience and feedback to our team at Sugar Creek Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Not worth the money
The greens were nice and so was the layout but fairways lacked the benefits if hitting it there. Patchy grass and not cut well. Looked like I was hitting from a yard and not a fairway.

Great Greens
The greens were in good shape, fairways need improvement but seems like later in the year would be much better. I look forward to playing here again and would recommend the course.

Variety of holes to play
There’s narrow fairways on some, wide open on others. Cool drop off holes and even a mountain climb of a par 3. Overall very nice layout and easy to play.
Hi, u314162602715. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Sugar Creek Golf Course.
In rough shape
The course is in pretty bad shape right now. The greens are the only good thing right now, they are in very good shape so credit where it is due, but the tee boxes and bad and the fairways are even worse. I like this course layout but will be hesitant to return.

Great course and a bargain.
No this is not some PGA course. For the price and the course you will definitely get your moneys worth. Forgivable par fours if you can hit a 320 drive but enough difficulty to be rewarding and painful. Definitely recommend this course staff very friendly pace of play is good.

This course condition has improved a lot since I played here last time, the greens are in really good shape, fairways are in much better shape also. Looks like they're putting some money into it, glad to see it.
