Played on 5/19 in the morning. Best golf experience in the last 12 months!!! Staff was awesome. Arrived at 625 am as a single. Their first tee time on the books is 7am. Even though another group of quasi members had already taken the "off the books" tee time that goes off before the 7am group, the guy running the pro shop let me go off before that group. I was supposed to go ahead of them by myself, but two other walk ons showed up prior to 645 and the starter basically told me, just tee off with those two and then you can just go ahead of them by yourself.

Teed off with those two and then played the rest of the round alone in just over 2 hours. Major kudos to the staff. Customer care is the most important part of running a golf course that is usually overlooked by staff. This is certainly not the case at Sandpiper! I can't say enough good things about this staff. Had they not allowed me to go off before everyone else, I would have not been able to play today. The staff listened to me when I explained this and completely hooked me up. I will recommend this course to everyone visiting this area from Orange County.

As for the conditions...excellent. Tee boxes were immaculate and level. Fairways were green and cut tight with only a couple of minor bad patches. Greens are completely recovered from aeration and rolled about 9 or 10, not bumpy at all. Rough was not very punitive but deep enough to keep errant tee shots from rolling into laterals. Views on 11, 12, and 13 were amazing.

I highly recommend this course and it was well worth the greens fee.
