Very enjoyable round.
Given more time, we would play this course for many more rounds.
very woman friendly
this is a course that all women would like as there are no challenging hazards to carry.. The fairways were in perfect condition and was a fun to play course.
Great golf at a really reasonable price!
For $40 for 18 holes in the Myrtle Beach area you can’t beat this course. We paid more for courses that don’t come anywhere near to the quality of Sandpiper Bay. The fairways and greens are in great shape. The club house, pro shop and snack bar the best we found on our week of golf. This is the best course we have played in the last four years of a fall week of golf in the Myrtle Beach area.
Good price and great course
Everything was great except my tee time was at 10, so I arrived 30 minutes early to hit balls and warm up. The starter yelled my name after 5 minutes telling me I needed to hurry up as he had me grouped with two other guys also having a 10 tee time. Luckily it was great to play with them. Just wish the warm up time would have been given.
Liked it
A Few funky holes..but overall Nice Course. Could use a Ranger out on Course to move along some of the Slow Players. Fast Pace on 1st Nine.. Bogged down last half of 2nd Nine.. Nice Course Conditions- Good Greens. Not as fast as I would like..but good shape..
Nice course
Really nice grass for the area. I’m from Ohio and this was the best grass I’ve seen in the area. The houses are a little close if you can’t hit it straight but I didn’t have any problem
Sandpiper Bay was in great shape
We loved the course, and the entire experience. Greens and fairways were in great shape, and we could see that the course was part if a friendly, pleasant community.
Nice Place
Very friendly staff in the pro shop, on the course and in the grill! The course was in great condition. I will definitely be going back.
A gem of 27
A nice layout great conditions, greens rolled true and were in nice shape.. The clubhouse was great pro shop stocked with football season gear!
Only thing to improve would be some friendliness for the guy loading carts. The starter was on his game very engage and sharing for course knowledge.
Sandpiper Bay
Course is in great shape following hurricane. Really enjoyed my round
Sandpiper
Course is in excellent condition. Staff is professional and knowledgeable.
Sand to Piper
Great value. Nice layout with some very interesting holes. Tees, fairways, traps, and greens were all in good condition. Played with nice people which made the experience even better.
Good course, decent conditions, great value
Lots of rain overnight meant some wet fairways and washed out bunkers early in the day. But they still let carts off the cart path, and it drained pretty quickly. By the 7th hole things had firmed up nicely. Greens rolled good, not super fast, but true. Course is above the Mendoza line for Myrtle Beach area. Nice mix of holes, a little water but not overboard like some MB area courses.
I'd play it again!
Great Course!
Very nice all around. Great staff. Great course. Great conditions. Had fun.
