About this course
Sawmill Creek Golf Club in Huron, Ohio, opened in 1974 and is one of Tom Fazio's early designs. It plays to par 71 and 6,782 yards from the back tees, with a 128 slope. The property sits between Sheldon Marsh Nature Preserve to the west, Lake Erie to the north, and Sawmill Creek to the east. The front nine, called the Creek Nine, has the creek running along four holes. The back nine, the Lake Nine, winds past willows and freshwater marsh. The greens are large, fast, and undulating, and the par 3s are the strength of the card. The course is owned by Cedar Fair, and Cedar Point resort guests can add rounds to their stay.

The par-70 layout runs roughly 6,300 yards and includes about 21 sand traps and more than a dozen water hazards across four sets of tees, with bluegrass fairways and bentgrass greens. A nearly 200-year-old building on the property serves as the clubhouse, housing a pro shop and snack bar.
