They've put so much time and money and hard work into this facility and golf courses especially BYRD. The Byrd course is in spectacular condition and only going to get better. To make things even better ,they have a fantastic beverage card attendant by the name of Betsy. You're not gonna find anyone better in the business ,than this young lady. We saw her frequently on the golf course and she was friendly and attentive. She even took time to do a picture with us to tease a friend lol. After our round, we stopped inside to the main bar area in the sports bar section. We met with our bartender Logan, who was extremely friendly and extremely knowledgeable about golf in the area ,as well as Bourbon's and the like . To say that this place is now a must hit venue would be an understatement. This will now be the legends of the north. The facilities for stay and play packages are going to be outstanding. And the restaurants and bars are beyond top-notch. If you're looking for somewhere to stay on a golf package look no further.

This is a 27 hole golf course that had been in the area a long time and it shows in the cart paths…read moreand ancillary areas of the property . The cart paths are supposed to be asphalt, but are about half gravel and dirt. There are areas of no grass and mud along the cart paths where you have to walk carefully to not get muddy shoes and find grass to hit off of. The greens are fast and most holes are difficult to hit into because they are located on slopes rather than flat ground. It also is not cheap. Being a rather pricey course. Less than some surrounding courses. But more costly than a lot of others

The last hole is a par 6, over 700 yards from the tips. The green is over some water and marsh with a landing area front right.

The big problem was that the crew here heavily overbooked the tee times for this Day, and because of that playing this round was miserable for the first 10-12 holes.

Make sure to check how many tee times there are before playing here, they definitely squeeze as much $$ out of the course as they can! Unfortunately we won't be coming back next year.

Despite my 4 star rating, I do want to echo the sentiments of the other low ratings here. We immediately had a bad taste in our mouths from the treatment by the initial staff. When we arrived, we simply parked our car and proceeded inside to pay in the pro shop, ignoring the bag drop area as it was not a busy day. We retrieved our carts from the pickup area and proceeded to the parking lot to load up clubs and change into our golf shoes. We were not told any differently, we didn't even SEE anyone. Within a minute, we were approached on a golf cart by an employee. I am not sure his name, but he was a late-middle aged man with very yellow teeth (not derogatory, but this is the only way I can identify him, he didn't give his name). He immediately gave us a guilt act that we didn't follow the "widely known procedure" to put our bags in the bag drop area and proceed inside to pay. We didn't do this because there was light rain, and no one was manning this area, so we figured it wasn't being used at the time. He then proceeded to be pompous about their course, and started talking down to us like we were somehow beneath this place. It set a TERRIBLE tone for the day, which is supposed to be fun, and we were paying a healthy green fee to enjoy. Unacceptable behavior. Clearly, these employees managing the initial experience are a repeat problem as pretty much all other reviews mention them. Pompous, holier than thou, rude, condescending. Sandpiper Bay, these people are hurting your image, and you're lucky our group was able to turn the other cheek and enjoy your beautiful course regardless. You would have had a 5 star rating if not for this employee. The starter on the other hand was an older gentleman who couldn't have been nicer. He gladly explained nuances about the course to us as we hadn't been there before. Explained it's a 27 hole course, and you play different legs based on traffic. We were told we play "Piper" and "Bay" courses today. He helped turn around the experience. We were thrilled to find out we didn't have to stay glued to the cart paths even though it was raining. Why? Because this course is in immaculate shape, and drains very well. Regardless of the consistent showers, the front 9 was not torn up at all by carts. We were making excellent ball contact even in the wet instead of burying our clubs in mud. This points to healthy grass and a knowledgeable well funded grounds-crew. Thanks to the weather, though wet, we played in a comfortable temperature, and had no one in front of us or behind us. It was enjoyable all day. Rain quit around hole 11. I could not find a blemish on this course even with the weather. No standing water at all. Lush grounds. Greens rolled well for being wet. We were so happy with the golf, that it made the rude initial employee an afterthought. Another BRIGHT star was the bartender at the turn. She was so friendly. An older lady pouring strong drinks with good humor, serving up hot dogs, sandwiches, and drinks to go. We dried off in there for about half an hour since pace of play was not a concern. She was a delight, and the food and drinks were excellent! I'd happily eat and drink here even if not playing. Lovely clubhouse. All in all, I shot 86 and given the weather, that is fantastic. The course is very long and without much roll, low scores were hard to find. We had a great day at Sandpiper, and will definitely return! Hopefully one person won't be working that day when we do.

I had to post a review because some of the reviews on here were much lower than I expected. My wife…read moreand I played here on a Saturday at noon in mid-April 2023 and had a pretty good experience. The outside bag staff was very friendly. When I went into the pro shop, they told me they were taking $20 off my green fee (I ended up paying $50/pp) because their greens had not started growing yet. This was surprising, since we've had a lot of warm weather. But I could see that the practice green was in rough shape - lots of dark green spots. So this was a bit of a red flag, but we played anyway. The pro shop staff was also very nice. The course was pretty empty. We played the front nine in about 1h 15m. At the turn, we hit a wall. It was slow for a few holes, but then we had a downpour for about two holes. The two groups in front of us took refuge to wait it out, so we passed them and ended up finishing in about 3 hours. The course was a little rough. Fairways and rough were OK, not fantastic. Tee boxes were OK but they need re-leveling. The greens were bumpy and inconsistent. The traps were also inconsistent - some hard, some soft. The rake literally bumped off the ground when I tossed it in one bunker! Given the age of this course, I just think it needs some minor renovation. The carts are fine, but no GPS. The USGA (GHIN) app has all that, so no problem! All in all, it wasn't a bad experience. The other reviews faulted the staff for being unfriendly, but I wanted to chime in because we had a good experience. I took a star off for the course conditions, but for the $50 we paid, it was an OK value.

The fairways were not much better with whole areas of crabgrass growing in spots. The "Crow" pole in which your cart is not allowed past was sometimes almost 100 yards from the greens which means you had to walk back from the greens to shoot which slowed the pace of play. There was a starter on each of the sides, but there were no roving rangers to help control the pace of play. We were standing with "hands on hips" on almost every hole because they crammed too many tee times too close together and had twosomes playing behind numerous foursomes. We had two "club members" pushing us from behind while hitting into us even though we were being held up by players in front of us. There is no reason they should be charging as much as they do. Meadow Lands, Diamondback and Eastport are in much better shape and a better deal for the money.
