Decent course for the coin

We played the Lakes and the Palms courses. The Lakes 9 was a little wetter in the fairways and rough than should be expected. Course layout is enjoyable, only request would be they include hole diagrams on their scorecards. We were shooting blind on a few holes not knowing where to play. The food and service at the Turn was very solid. All in all we enjoyed our round and all agreed we would be back to play there again.

Expectations were higher considering price

The front nine was in terrible shape (Lakes), tees not mowed, or fairways. The back side (Palm) was in better condition. Greens were fair, not fast. Not worth the price they charged.

One ball found

I didn't lose one ball though water came into play a number of times. But as usual to lose a ball in the water it has to be a bad shot and your own fault, except for a few courses I've played and not returned to. Sandpiper I will return to over and over again.

I thought that it is a great place to play. The 3 nines help to keep the pace very positive.

Nice course

Sandpiper first time that I played here in the morning. The pace was a bit slow but conditions were very nice. Recent over seeding so course was a bit wet

They have 3 new me hole courses. We played. Lakes. And. Palms. Greens and fairways were in great condition. Except where previous hurricane damage has not yet been repaired

Replayed course on 11/13 w/ buddy. Lakes nine is very wet & soggy. So wet, fire ants are up all over the place trying to stay dry. Palms nine was drier. Greens on both nines are in good shape, rolling true & fairly fast. The fairways & roughs however have a lot of small leaf weeds. All in all course has nice design. Carts are battery powered & old, with the rain covers in back falling apart.

Played the Oaks course yesterday. This course is essentially a big weed patch, with shaggy greens. It is a last choice for us to play.

Very disappointed

All was going well till we got to Par 3 tee on the lakes course, As we were preparing to tee off suddenly a tractor drove in front of the green and started mowing the area surrounding the green. This wet on for about 10 minutes, Destroyed the speed of play and ruined what should have been a decent round of golf. After we finished the hole we spoke to the operator and realized he didn't speak any English. Never the less he should be trained in golf courtesy. When we left the green the operator continued to mow around the green forcing the group behind us to skip the hole. After completing the round we complained to the golf shop attendant and really got no satisfaction. My golf partner refuses to play the Sandpiper golf course again.

Wonderful!

Had wonderful time on a great golf course. Always enjoy playing Sandpiper. Some holes are easier than others, but the greens are always fast and there are no easy putts, and plenty of sand and water too. Great time!
