Sandpiper
Greens were very good but fairways were very dry due to lack of rain.... Staff including Starter and Bag personnel were excellent! ALWAYS enjoy playing Sandpiper!!!
nice greens
Enjoyed the round today. Greens in good shape, 2 of the 3 nine hole courses have 3 par fives, making it fun.
Greens
Greens are good , all around good condition,, I would play again
Greens condition
Greens not fast but in great condition!!!,they have 27 holes ,3 >9 hole setups ,I played sand and piper both where a good layout . If you can hit the ball fairly straight there’s a good amount of room to setup for your approach shot!!!!
Enjoyable & Challenging Layout
Superb greens and excellent staff. Fairways are good and rough has yet to green up and thicken up
Greens slow
Greens very different from last time here. Very slow compared to everywhere else I’ve played over the past 3 months including Sandpiper
Front 9 very slow Because of group ahead. No ranger to move them along. They did let us switch to Piper when we were supposed to play Sands so back 9 was better
Slow play
Organization was totally chaotic at starter. Honestly believe this caused the very slow play. We were held up by 4 carts (8 people) playing one hole.
