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.

Progress

Course is really coming around this year. You can tell the maintenance staff is working hard over there to bring out the best conditions on a rather fun little track. Clubhouse staff continues to be as friendly as ever. Keep up the good work Sugar Creek, I’ll be back to play.

It’s coming back!

Gotta say the last time I played here was around 3 years ago and swore I would never go back due to unputtable greens and bare fairways. I’ve heard rumors that there had been some changes for the good and have to report the rumors were true, greens were MUCH improved as were the fairways, some tee boxes were hard as a rock and there were some bare spots on some fairways but overall , I will be going back.

The course is getting better but still not great. Fairways and tee boxes need a little work but greens were good.

Great golf course and great value!

Played Sugar Creek on Sunday July 21, 2019 and had a great time. The course was in really good condition and looked picturesque. The course is situated within some houses but you never feel crowded because there is plenty of space. There is a lot of forest surrounding the course that provided shade on a very hot day. The course is challenging but fun for a couple of recreational golfers.

Better than it's been in a long time

The course has come a long way from its prior condition. I used to play the course often years ago and always thought of it as a hidden gem. Then it wasn't in nice shape for a while so I didn't even bother. I had a great round today. Get out there soon, the price won't last for sure the way the conditions are.

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.
