Sawmill Creek Resort is a Resort 18 hole golf course located in Huron, Ohio.
The Sawmill Creek Resort golf course opened in 1974.The course was designed by Tom Fazio.
Sawmill Creek Golf Club rests on the shores of Lake Erie. Situated 45 minutes from both downtown Cleveland and Toledo. Sawmill Creek Golf Club was only the fourth course that Fazio had designed to that date.
This early Fazio masterpiece is bordered by natural beauty on three sides. Sheldon's Marsh on the West, Lake Erie on the North and Sawmill Creek on the East make this lushly landscaped course a challenge for golfers of all ability.
The two nines have distinctly different qualities. The front nine, also called the "Creek Nine" gives the golfer a traditional northern feel with Sawmill Creek meandering around four of the outward nine holes. The "Lake Nine" which serves as the back nine gives the player a feeling like their visiting the Carolinas. Large, beautiful weeping willow trees protecting freshwater lakeside marshes will make the inward nine an experience you won't soon forget.
