Get out and play a beautiful 18 along the coast of Lake Erie with today’s feature: $35 for 18 Holes with Cart at Sawmill Creek Golf Club in Huron near Sandusky ($85 Value. Includes Tax. Expires November 1, 2021!)
Minutes away from the thrill-seeker's get-away at Cedar Point in Sandusky, this picturesque 18-hole championship golf course is perched along the coastline of Lake Erie. Designed by renowned course architect Tom Fazio, Sawmill Creek came about in 1974 when it opened its doors to golfers in the small lake-front village of Huron.
Sawmill Creek Golf Course is a par-71 championship course measuring out to 6,782 yards from the tips with a course/slope rating of 72/128. Each hole on Sawmill’s 18 features 4 different tee locations allowing each golfer to match difficulty with their skill set, appealing to scratch golfers and weekend warriors alike. This Fazio masterpiece also prides itself in having some of the best greens in Ohio with large, undulating putting surfaces and a reputation of being firm and true.
Sawmill Creek features a collection of par-3’s that are equally as challenging as they are beautiful, unrivaled by any other course in this great state. You’ll start off your round on the 349-yard par-4 on Sawmill Creek's front nine. A second shot short of the pin will prove best, giving you an uphill putt on this forward-sloping green. Moving on, you’ll find the 188-yard par-3 No. 7 which will make you clear Sawmill Creek and avoid bunkers guarding the front side of an elevated green.
The back nine kicks off with two long and straight par-4’s before moving onto the par-5 No. 12, one of most difficult holes on the course. Just beyond the right fairway bunker is a stand of weeping willows and yet more water — bring your A-game or you'll find yourself wet on this one. Lastly, you’ll wrap up your round on the moderately long par-4 No. 18 with a total of 453 yards. This hole requires you to pure a tee shot left to left-center for optimum approach to a small yet elevated green.
Swing into the pro-shop at Sawmill Creek, where you’ll find all of the best equipment, apparel and accessories in the game.
Lastly, pay homage to Mulligans Pub inside Sawmill Creek’s beautiful clubhouse. With a wide variety of food and drinks, you’ll find no better place to tally up the days scores and sip on some cold beer. Mulligans' menu has it all, from burgers to seafood to soup, salads and everything in between. It's the perfect environment to talk about the shots that were and could have been!
So pack up the clubs and come see one of the eldest Tom Fazio designs around for yourself — you’ll leave with little left to be desired!
