Major Disappointment!
Greens just aerated and impossible to putt. Course has an obligation to inform services and services like Goifnow have an obligation to inform players. Also price should reflect compromised greens.
Sunset Beach Vacation Round
This was not the first time I have played at Sandpiper and it will not be my last! This is everything I could want/need with just enough challenge and good conditions! Thank you!
GREAT Bang for your Buck
Great course and Friendly helpful staff. Cart path make for a bumpy ride. Greens played nice evening 15mins after rain.
Great day!!
Course was in great shape!!! The greens were perfect. Staff was awesome!!! Play this course every time we come down and never disappoints
Awesome Greens
Course was in excellent condition overall, but the greens were superb!
Great public course In the OIB area
We really enjoyed the layout and challenge of This course. The tees were rough, probably because we were the first group out. The greens were tough because they were just dressed, but I’m sure they would be great otherwise.
I would recommend this course if you’re in the area.
Course is in great shape
Friendly staff. Challenging holes and numerous tee boxes to test your game.
Fun course to play
Always good to play this course. Staff is great and the course is in good shape tee to green. I would recommend to anyone
Beautiful Course
Course was in great shape. Will definitely play again.
Excellent Course
I played as a single with 3 guys who live on the course and they were great, Bill, Jeff and Paul. We had a fun day. This course might be the nicest around. From tee to green everything is exceptional. If one issue, the greens were very slow, but in great condition. You will not go wrong to play here. They take care of your clubs from the time you drop them off at club drop until they show up on your cart. Workers are great/friendly.
Rude marshal
I played with my dad today and we were paired up with a very nice father and son. Everything was going great until the marshal came by about halfway through the back nine and rudely told us we needed to pick it up. We really did not think we were holding anything up, but it made me pretty mad, and then he came by a couple holes later and did it again. We finished 18 holes in 4:20, so really not sure why he got on us. Will be my last time there.
