About
Links of Sandpiper in Lakeland offers a traditional links layout that sprawls across rolling terrain. The course is player friendly enough for players of all skill levels to enjoy but it has enough challenges for more advanced players as well. The course is anything but flat, and the ups and downs are the most challenging element you'll encounter. The small, undulating greens and narrow landing areas off of the fairways demand accuracy. Combined with elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers, proper club selection and course management also play important roles. Picking the right lines from the tees into the greens requires careful thought. You'll face a few blind shots thanks to the rolling terrain and there are also several bunkers strategically placed along the greensides. Links of Sandpiper's final four holes are the toughest stretch.

Nice course
I always enjoy playing here. Staff is always very friendly and the course is in good shape.
Always enjoy this course
Fun course, with some holes I still don’t know how to play. Well maintained and a great alternative from more expensive and lesser courses near Orlando.
Great course in great community
This is our go to course in North Lakeland. Some very interesting holes that require a few attempts before getting it close to right👍
Nice housing development course that has seen better days
Greens were good and fast. Bunkers good shape and fairways ok. Lots of play so expect a 4-1/2 to 5 hour round. No driving range.
Good value for the money
Course was in good shape, challenging holes and some you could make up on scoring, downfall is with tee times for all golfers and pairing up when necessary there was no Marshall or starter to keep things moving at a respectful pace.
2 nines like night and day
front nine straight forward fairly nice layout. Back nine multiple carryovers not really obvious first time. Definitely more difficult but playable.
Fun again..
Busy day, so the pace was a little slow. Fast greens so this is a fun course to play.
Pleasant Surprise
Been about 10 to 12 years since we played the course.
We could not believe the course a facilities improvements....
Somebody spent a lot of money here but should get a good return!
We will be back.

Decent to play
Fairways needs some TLC, greens decent. Back 9 tough to f you do not know the course. Staff was accommodating.
Sandpiper
Course is in very good shape, greens are excellent. Kudos to the maintenance team, every time I play here it seems that they have made small incremental improvements whether it’s to the course itself or the cart paths. Definitely recommend this course.
Sandpiper
Fun course a bit rough in some areas but didn't affect playability. Great value. I would recommend trying it
