Great course

Only 6300 from the tips but great Layout and greens. Nice club house, carts and very friendly. Great scenery on course. Only complaint was I played as a single for 18 holes and caught a group on 5-6 and pace stopped. It took a full hour to play 16-17-18. A 4 hour round as a single at 2pm stinks.

Superb course

Great conditions for this time of the year. Greens were in great condition as well as the rest of the course. Very enjoyable round. Enough challenges for every level of play. There is a tee for everyone. We played twice in the 6 rounds we played and would play again with more time. Great staff.

Course is in Graf shape

I caught a hot deal on GolfNow and found a gem in Sandhill Crane. I was a single and was paired up with a twosome. We played 18 in 3 hours. The course was in great condition...tee boxes, fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The staff was very friendly. The GPS on the cart was operational and a big help. The greens were fast.

Beautiful

This course is amazing and when you consider it’s a town owned course it’s just mind blowing. The only downside of the course is a strange double dog leg par 5 hole on the back 9. Otherwise a tremendous track worthy of play!

Outstanding!!!

We booked a golf trip with the idea of playing PGA National. We found out the Champions course was closed. Luckily, we saw a good review of Sandhill Crane and decided to try it out. It’s the best value in the area. Everything about it is outstanding!!!!

The course is a very fun course with lots of character. The course itself is in very good condition. The staff was amazing both days we played. The clubhouse is very nice and the food was good. Best value in town. At 1/3 of the price, it eats PGA Natinal’s lunch.

We will definitely make it our top chose when in Palm Beach.

This course is in great shape and has lots of wildlife

The course is comfortable and challenging with many carry opportunities from the back tees. Gators and other wildlife keep you searching while enjoying the golf.

Good day

Course conditions were ok, pace moved for a 4 hour round.

The composting toilet would be more attractive and utilized if the ladies room could be locked. Have complained about this for a long time and no one fixes it. Upscale courses take care of the little things—no one wants to walk in on someone with their pants around their ankles.
