Good course. Awkward 1st hole.

This course was in excellent shape. Fairways and greens were the best that I've seen there. They are still working on some areas but that's just normal course improvement and not course maintenance issues. Putting green was true; all greens consistent. Kudos to the grounds crew and greenskeeper. Top-notch management and friendly staff too.

My only criticism is the first hole - right off the hop, you are forced to either lay up just before the small creek, or bring out the masher in order to carry it - pretty awkward start considering your swing is cold. Challenges are great but most holes like that don't happen until at least a few holes into your round. Fairways can be tight so if you're spraying your ball, it'll make for a long day. Bunkers are good. Pins are generally attackable unless the greenskeeper decides to be sinister.

Other notes:
Electric carts are nice. The clubhouse and food very good. Free small bucket to warm up is a nice touch.

A few minor issues

This course has a fun and challenging layout. There is water, including a peninsula type green with water carry on the 18th. Club selection is important on several holes in order to avoid water hazards and bunkers. The fairways and greens were in great condition. The tee boxes were torn up, off level and a couple are misaligned with the fairway which caused set up issues with our group and the group ahead of us. Some of the bunkers have been decommissioned and are simply marked "ground under repair". Despite these issues, this course presents a fun and challenging round. Staff courtesy and friendliness, from booking, to ground staff to cart return are exceptional. We will return.

Nothing Special

Not a bad course with the renovations certainly making it better but still not great. Layout of the course is very silly and you end up keeping driver in the bag for most of the round. Greens not very fast but rolled fairly true. Good part about this course is that you get a decent experience for the price you pay

Sutton Creek - a little gem

One of the best value courses for the money. Renovations have certainly improved the course aesthetically as well as play. Next to Ambassador this course is the best around, some challenging holes, typically fast greens and is usually in above average condition, regardless of time of year

Challenging!

Great course, challenging strategic tee shots must be made on most holes. If you hit your tee shot in the long whispy grass, you'll never find it. Expect to lose a few balls. Hitting the fairways is a must on this course, or else you'll have a bunch of bogie's or worse on the card. I'm a 6 handicap and I've played some great rounds there and also horrible rounds. Overall, it's a very nice maintained course. Found a hot deal on GolfNow and saved 55%!

Course in Great shape

Enjoyed our round of golf. We were a foursome and played 18 in just over 4 hours. Greens and overall course conditions very good for this time of year. Would play again, all 4 of us enjoyed our round.

Disappointed

I must preface my review with I normally enjoy Sutton Creek. It is a nice track, interesting layout...a shot makers course.
However, my round yesterday was not that at all. Unusually slow greens (not the norm) was the straw that broke the camels back. Even a discounted rate wasn't enough of being put on a course after a small scramble tourney with a lot of reckless and intoxicated people that don't comprehend simple etiquette (no marshall presence). A 5.5 hour round in 90° heat took any joy of playing golf on this day.

Enjoy Sutton Creek

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Course was in superb condition, greens smooth and quick. Rough was of medium length and best to be avoided. Sand bunkers had quality sand that make splash shots easier than at most courses. Water and hazard areas on most holes rewards precision shots. A good challenge for the high to medium handicapper. Highly recommended.
