Rating 69.0

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.

A Tremendous Experience

My friend and I played 9 holes and had a great time. The gentleman in the clubhouse was very attentive and welcoming. The course was very well kept thanks to the grounds crew who have to maintain a huge area. We had the chance to meet the Owner, who introduced himself to us and was super kind and personable. Overall, I truly recommend Sugar Creek because of the great people who work there and the sheer quality of the course itself.

Can't wait for next time!

SugarCreek is back!

I’ve been playing this course for years and I’m glad to see that it is finally back in great conditions. Greens are amazing and the fairways just keep get better. The staff is always super friendly. Highly recommend you come back and play it for yourself if you haven’t in a while.

First Time Playing

The course was in fair condition the day we played. The rough could have been cut shorter, but I don’t know if they were waiting another day or whatever for the holiday.

The staff was amazingly friendly.

We borrowed a left hand set club. It was a very tired driver that needs to be replaced. Although it was $10 to rent and a left hand set- beggars can’t be choosy in the time of Covid.

Perfect for casual golfers

Perfect course for casual players to get on. Great staff. Great treatment to customers. Great hole creativity because design is unusual, and it has some fun holes you don't see in many other courses. Alot of pars and birdies possible, and greens are great. Cart paths and fairways are ugly but new owners are improving everything they can.

Can't beat the quality of the greens and picsturesque

I have been to several course in the area and keep coming back to Sugar Creek. The greens and fairways are awesome and no one can beat the value of a round at the course. The staff is fabulous and I will keep coming back for years to come.

Sugar Creek Golf

I have recently moved to Ballwin and I got to play 18 at sugar creek for the first time today, it was great. The course is in great condition with plenty of awesome hole layouts and it’s pristine greens make for a great day on the golf course. Grant was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable of the course. I look forward to booking my next tee time at Sugar Creek soon.

Cart paths

If I had to give a letter grade it would be an F. The paths are terrible or non existent. Also the course is very hilly

Poor Experience

First, let me say that the course employees were absolutely wonderful as were the clubhouse and course vistas, but all that was ruined by the state of the course and unbelievably slow pace of play.

First off, the course. They should be ashamed of both having the course open after such heavy rains, and in charging full price. Most every tee box was soaking wet and most fairways were so wet, you dare not miss hit a ball or you'd be covered in mud. The greens started out soaking wet, but by the time we abandoned the game at the 16th hole (after 4.5 hours) they were only dry-ish.

We (twosome) were placed between two foursomes of a senior scramble and as I said above, had to abandon the game at the 16th hole after playing for 4.5 hours.

I booked this through Golf Now, where it has a $15 (walking) fee. It was very apparent that NO ONE walks this course so they charge an additional 100% fee for the cart! Heck, you'd have a tough time walking this course back in your peak physical condition of your 20's!

So, poorly drained and utterly soaking, wet tee boxes, fairways and greens coupled with extremely slow rate of play completely soured me on this course. I will not recommend nor return for play.

Bad conditions, not walker friendly

Cheap tee time is a plus but $15 per person for a cart rental, what they fail to tell you is that walking this course is IMPOSSIBLE! Imagine taking a hike up a mountain between every single hole, and then add carrying/pulling your clubs, not a great time. Had to throw my shoes off at one point to walk through a river built through the cart path. Plus, fairways looked not much better then your neighbors backyard and the course holds water, so lots of mud out there (try chipping your ball from the edge of the green and getting the head of the club stuck in three inches of dirt)

Who ever designed the course obviously has never played golf. And I don’t think they have a grounds crew cause there was absolutely no fairway just tee boxes and a green out in a swamped field. Easily the worst course I have ever played.

Much improved!

2nd time I have played this course and I am happy to say that it is much improved over the previous time I played.

It still has a ways to go but it is definitely worth a try.

Great course and staff!

I went to this course a couple of times last year after getting back into golfing and went back to it for my first round this season. I love this course. It is a great value for your money and the staff is always very friendly. The owner even talked with us while we grabbed a bite to eat between the front and back 9’s. Would recommend to everyone and will be going back many times again this season!
