Punched Greens
It would be a 5 if they hadn’t just punched the greens.
Great course, gets wet quickly on back 9although they are working to improve this. Needs new or more sand in the bunkers.
A tale of 2 sides
The front side was in perfect shape. Several holes on the back side were unplayable. They really need to figure out the draiage on those holes before I come back for 18. The staff was super friendly.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. Please know the current conditions are by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards a 5-star experience and we hope to see you back!
Greens
Would have been nice to know the greens were recently aerated. I don’t understand why this isn’t included when purchasing tee time.
Thank you for taking the time to review and leave us your feedback. We would like to apologize for any inconvenience you experienced when booking your tee time. Our goal is to provide our golfers with all relevant information when booking their round online. We apologize if we missed the mark.

Fall Challenge
500 yard par 5 from the Senior Tee! Greens had been areated recently. Long, narrow at times,. Shot 96, 10 over my typical round!
Really in a state of disrepair.
The money charged for the course is highway robbery compared to how poor the conditions are. I understand they were airing greens out but yikes - putting was impossible. You could easily miss a putt within a club length from a weird bounce. Several hazards in play on the fairways. Pro shop lady was extremely nice but the course really was in bad shape.

Great layout
Fairways in nice shape. Green smooth true roll. Tough if it breezy
Superb
Course in fantastic condition. Always enjoy playing here. Fazio did great with this design. Greens were smooth and speedy. Played the back tees and used every club in my bag. Stay below the hole. Highly recommend!!
Sawmill Creek Golf
Very good track and in pretty good condition. Although pace of play was a bit slow, staff was friendly and accommodating. Price for a Saturday was reasonable too and I would definitely recommend playing this course!
Perfect Day
The course was in very good shape, especially the greens...nice! Nice breeze...sun & a few clouds...beautiful!
Overall a very enjoyable experience. As Arnold would say "I'll be back"!
Pub manager
The pub management needs a more personable manager!!!

Flooding can be an issue but course conditions are improving and amenities are greatly improved with the newly renovated clubhouse and restaurant.
The course layout is great and staff are very helpful and friendly.
Sawmill is back!
since the course is in new ownership management
its coming back to "resort quality" status without the resort high greens fee....greens and bunkers are in great shape...the fairways are lush and the overall experience
is wonderful..one minor comment is getting the 1/2 way
house back up and open..would speed up play and not have groups drive over to the main clubhouse at the turn.
Back and better than ever
I have played Sawmill many times over the years. A few years back they lost the back nine to water damage and things were not good. I went out there for the the first time since the back nine reopened last summer. Course was back in great shape. All 18 are in the best shape I can recall them ever being. I am from the west side of Cleveland and had a chance to talk to the staff about the need to advertise in the Cleveland area. They used to get a lot of play from people out of Cleveland, but I think that has dropped off since the issue with the back nine. With the discounts for Seniors and through the various online sites, it is a great deal for the money. The course is back and better than ever.
Friendly Staff & Great Course
Sawmill is a great course to play and everyone in the clubhouse extremely helpful!
