Sugar Creek Golf Course
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.

Best bang for the buck.
To start the guys in the clubhouse are as cool and understanding as can be. It’s a fun and at times challenging course with some blind elevated tee boxes and fairways but then has fun par 5s. Cart paths could use some work but is by far the best bang for the buck in the area.
Much improved
I played sugar creek for 14 dollars. Greens I felt we’re in good shape. Only one green which was still emerging. The range looked great and the pace of play was solid. I feel it was a crazy good value.
Course getting better
Good layout and greens are improving, as is the rest of the course - very slow play for a Friday morning
Cart paths need improving badly in most areas - overall we are satisfied for our $20 entry - will be back
Nice Course
I liked playing there. Some of the holes were not in best condition as far as fairways but it is understandable because of the rain they were still playable. Priced fairly. Not sure what bad reviews are for but not my place to comment on that. Will definitely play there again.
Greens much better.
Only 1 green still closed. The others are in much better shape than they were. But this is Sugar Creek. But we enjoy this course and will keep coming back.
Nice course but....
Loved the course but the greens were horrible. But still beautiful course and nice staff.
Course to ourselves
Didn't see another golfer to the 16th hole. Just us and the deer. Great time.
needs work
the course is in rough shape. but they are working on it and making improvements. the greens are in rough shape. 6 & 18 are closed and they have a temp green set up. it needs time to heal
Terrible
Usually I don’t give a review of this nature. Unfortunately, this was hands down the worst course I have played this year. You cannot putt on most greens. The crabgrass has overtaken them so drastically, you simply cannot putt. The same goes for the fairways, however they are only moderately affected. The cart path is destroyed, which frankly I don’t care about. The staff was extremely friendly, with food and drinks available. They were absolutely great. Regardless, I’m sorry, this was an outing I could have done without.
Coming back
Have played here a dozen times in the last year. Place just keeps drawing us back.
Coming Along. . . .
They are making progress with the conditions of the course. I wasn't sure what to expect with some of the recent reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised to see good conditions on most all holes throughout my round. The greens will need some crabgrass treatment as the crabgrass has over-powered many of the greens.
Good and bad
I really like the layout of this course. Their greens were rough last year but they brought them around. But now it seems that crabgrass has encroached upon their greens and they need to figure that out. I appreciate the fact that the fairways are getting stronger
Great Layout, Horrible condition
Had a 9:30 tee time, maybe 14 cars in the parking lot when we arrived. We were able to tee off early and besides the single we let go in front of us only ran into one other group on the course. Tee boxes were either average or poor condition wise. Lots of bare spots or ones that were not mowed and overgrown with wire grass. Rough was in average condition, needed to be mowed. Fairways and greens were "green" for the most part, with a variety of grasses. Fairways had rough patches but overall average. Greens were well below average, lots of patches on the edge of dying out, lots of crab grass mixed in with the bent, slow speeds, randomly chosen on which ones were cut, and the 18th was almost completely taken over by bermuda. Sadly, it putted the best of all of them. Love the layout and the staff is great, but the playability is just not there at the moment.
