Very nice course
Thew wind makes a big difference but the course was very dry compare to the last visit...
sandpiper 11/16
Cold today the Cdn cold snap hit. Rained again, but not as much but the cold has taken charge.
The course was much better overall today. the over seeding has really taken over and just sucked off the water. Greens were fast and sneaky. Club house is great, staff are really great, helpful will be back next year to this all over again.
Fun course
Fairways still a little wet so cart path only. But fairways get better daily. Tee boxes very plush. Staff very friendly. With 27 holes every round is a little different. Love this course.
Sandpiper
The course was in wonderful shape, greens were fast and true. Tee boxes were plush and the fairways were cut perfectly.
very good greens
Over seeding and play was cart path only. The course is in the best shape it's been in years.
The greens are just perfect
It is the first time in 14 years that we find the course in such good condition , you can be very proud of your green keeper he did a terific job this year...
Just WOW
Relay nice course , beautifull and fast greens, nice fairways
I would play this course anytime....
Slow Play and no Ranger
Course was in great shape and greens were very true. Round was completely spoiled by a male foursome that despite being pushed would not let anybody through and had no intention of playing under 5 hours. A course ranger would have been nice.
Excellent course conditions
The course was in excellent shape. The staff explained that the reconstruction had really improved the greens, which was definitely true. Greens rolled fast, true and smooth. Very challenging course, especially when the wind came up later in our round.
Pace was the only slight negative. There was a large, older group in front of us that played rather slowly. We still had a great time.
Great course at great price!
Second time playing this week. Challenging holes from back tees.
Would play again anytime we are back in Myrtle Beach area
Very Good
The course was very good condition especially considering that they are recovering from the hurricane. The only problem was the 5hr round because they had a members tournament going. But even over that time it was very enjoyable.
Bay & Sand course
Excellent greens and great layout. Unbelievable value in Myrtle Beach area! Would play here every day if I could! Held up on the Bay but clear sailing on the Sands(back 9)
Fairways we're all well drained & bunkers had great sand. Water on many of the holes but do not come into play got the most part. Good scenic addition to help keep the fairways dry
Staff from the pro shop to the starters we're welcoming and courteous
Great first game of vacation! Setting the bar high
As our first game of our vacation this year, the Sand Piper Bay is setting the bar high.
We were worried with hurricanes Florence & Michael’s passage that there would be some damage, but the course is in top conditions. The greens are perfectly maintained.
We will go back before the end of our vacation.
