Solid

Came here with 10 golfers on beach vacation. Have played here many times. Played it first year it was open 30+ years ago. Booked a few days before. Staff friendly. Greens good. Fairways and tees solid. Pace of play good. Good course for all handicap levels. Never disappoints. Will continue coming.

Awesome staff ...

Played at sea trail a few days before and difference in attitude was night and day. Sandpiper staff were so welcoming and helpful. Everyone made you feel like an invited guest.

Awesome staff to match the facilities.

Slow play

We had the first tee time on the sand course and played it in an hour and a half. When we got to the piper course we got placed behind five other groups. We asked why, the starter said they had a group of 24 that did not show up on time so they had to wait. We said that’s not our problem, that’s their problem. Unfortunately it was our problem. I will not be going back.

Sand Piper

Nice course played fast, overall a nice day at a nice course. They had just aerated the greens so putting was tricky.

ONE OF MY FAVES

Sandpiper Bay is one of my favorite courses in the Brunswick - Myrtle Beach area. Course is always in great shape. The staff is very friendly. Terry and Bob are the best starters in the business! The clubhouse amenities are top-night. I play there every opportunity I get.

Place needs help

Staff was not friendly at all. From the front pro shop to the cart guy. Did not feel welcome and they could use some customer service training to say the least.
