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 rehab

Wasn’t expecting much, haven’t played here since I was a kid in a booze league and it was an amusement park at best. Now it is a pristine golf course with a fun twist. Great course for any handicap

Improved

The course is still a bit choppy in the fairways, but the greens are in good shape.
I've been playing at Sugar Creek for a long time and took a break for serval years. It's improved over the time, and I think the owners are trying to make it a better course to play.

Disrespect

After 9 holes no waiting as had tournament earlierso course wide open but when teed off on 10 someone playing it, when ready to tee on 11 waited 5 minutes and still weren't done, so finished my round. Totally lack of respect allowing someone to start on 10 not 1! Thought about joining won't be back!

This could be one of the best courses for the price in the STL area. A few tee boxes are chewed up but greens and fairways are perfect. Worth every penny to play here!

Okay for the money

The bathrooms on the course were kinda gross, and lots of geese with their poop on the course. It is early in the season, but the ground was particularly wet and patchy. A lot of "ground under going work" signs around patchy spots.

Great course for the price!

Fairways were hit and miss, but most of them were in really great shape. Greens were decent. There were a few pretty rough tee boxes, and the cart paths need work, but overall I was very pleased.
