Unbelievable

Sandy Pines is the most beautiful course I’ve had the chance to play. The staff were super friendly and accommodating, the pace was great, and the course is just absolutely pure. The layout is seriously incredible. Challenging yet so fun to play. Definitely worth the drive and money!

Perfect weather
Used cart

Very good course

Greens are very fast so make sure you practice prior to playing. The fairways are cut very low so you get plenty of roll when you flob a shot.

Outstanding course - first time playing

Fairways,, rough., greens, and bunkers were immaculate and your caliber in my opinion. Very friendly staff and excellent post round found and pro shop.

Only issue is the layout with a few holes adjacent to roads and car noise. But it’s Indiana and the beauty of this course makes up for it.

Very nice course

All Positives. Excellent golf course.. my only complaint is booking on line. No way to use our coupon or senior discount.

Not crazy about golfnow. But the course is so interesting and in great shape.

Phenomenal Day at Sandy Pines.

Gorgeous weather on a gorgeous course…. Can’t get any better. Course looked great. Greens were smooth rolling. Fairways were like butter. Worth every penny. Breakfast at the restaurant was also spectacular. Highly recommend

Best Golf experience I’ve ever had!!

We had a work group stay and play over the weekend. From the moment we arrived at Sandy Pines we were treated to a first-class golf course and accommodations. The staff (restaurant,golf course and lodging) couldn’t have more professional, accommodating and most importantly friendly. You will never find a better bang for your buck golf stay and play than Sandy Pines!!

I will be back!!
