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!

Good golf course

A good value, a variety of tee locations to suit all skill levels.

Course was extremely wet for mid August, greens were aerated more than a week ago, but greens conditions were adversely affected more than I expected. Interesting layout. Fast pace of play. Friendly staff, nice clubhouse.

Best value and course conditions

Even though the greens were aerated (as stated when booked) the greens still were very playable. The course as always was in excellent shape. And the round was very enjoyable as there were no problems with pace of play. I was a single and at least 3 if not 4 groups allowed me to play through. The only comment of concern is they now give a very small bag of warm up balls for the range. However, it was explained that others abused the range and would hit balls and not being playing. A suggestion would be to give out paper wrist bands or some simple ID tag instead of limiting patrons. However, I keep company by back and telling people about this course because it is a great place for all level of golfers at a extremely reasonable rate. Keep up the great work! See you again on the next trip to the area.
