Sawmill Creek Resort, Huron, OH

Got this deal from Travel Zoo along with a night at the resort from livingsocial.com.  What a great deal! Golf is usually $69/person here and I think I paid about $45 for both of us.  This is a nice course, especially woman friendly.  It was a bit tight with quite a few holes side by side which made it harder for my husband but I hit pretty straight so it was good for me!  It was pretty crowded and the course wasn't real long so we often had to wait to hit our second shot.  The fairways were in good condition, but the tee boxes and greens were a bit rougher.  They were working everywhere probably because of the hard winter we had.  The sand was in good condition and there were quite a few holes where water came into play.  The par 5s weren't very long but the par 3s were very interesting.  We were able to get on the green fairly easily but par was very hard because of the pin placements.  I don't think there was one hole we weren't hitting up or downhill trying to get par.  There was a convenient rest room (quite clean) and snack shop but the snack shop wasn't open.  AND there was no cart person...I don't know why, they would have made a ton of money with all the golfers out there.  We were also pleased that they didn't pair us up with someone.  I would enjoy playing this course again, if I could get a deal.
