I may need to add this to the list. @BlakeHall you in??
This is awesome! I've been trying to get up there or convince our fire department group to book a weekend there. Had hoped to get up there before they started getting any major events.I just booked a day at SV for this coming July.
mid-morning tee time at the Sandbox par 3 course
- veteran's rate for me and my brother-in-law is only $15 each before 12noon (normally $75)
- junior rate for my son is...free
late afternoon tee time at Mammoth Dunes
- full rate $295 for us adults plus $100/bag plus tip for caddie to carry 2 bags
- junior rate for my son is...free, and he can push a cart
so it's only $460-ish for both me and my son to play both Sandbox and Mammoth including a caddie for me in the afternoon.
this is a bucket-list day of golf that's practically in my backyard so i'm super excited!
anyone have suggestions or advice?
They'll tell you the yardage of the longest shot on sandbox before you start. Take only the clubs you need in one of the Sunday bags they provide for you there.I just booked a day at SV for this coming July.

Soooooooo good! Make sure to get the chicken sandwich from the food truck at the par 3. Gosh I love that place. I'm going to go look at dates nowI just booked a day at SV for this coming July.

Food trailer food was great and really inexpensive. Thankfully, they don't nickel and dime you on the course like many other pricey places.They'll tell you the yardage of the longest shot on sandbox before you start. Take only the clubs you need in one of the Sunday bags they provide for you there.
We played the Sandbox barefoot, which is part of the vibe there. Many here would frown upon that though
Food at the trailer near the Sandbox should be the same as on course. Everything is a buck.
I had heard this from others at my club who played there. That's really cool.Food trailer food was great and really inexpensive. Thankfully, they don't nickel and dime you on the course like many other pricey places.
On the course they have food stations with candy bars, snacks and Gatorade that was free. And then the hallway house drinks and food were a buck or two. It's a really nice touch.I had heard this from others at my club who played there. That's really cool.
Spotted Cow can at Sand Valley: 3 bucks.I had heard this from others at my club who played there. That's really cool.
Whistling Straits was always the course I dreamed to play, but everyone I talk to says Sand Valley is so much better. The Straits I know is challenging and beautiful, but so much depends on weather and it's hard to justify paying that amount to have bad weather/wind from the lakes.Spotted Cow can at Sand Valley: 3 bucks.
Same Spotted Cow can at Whistling Straits: 9 bucks

I've heard nothing other than that they're doing well. The area seems to be doing nicely on the golf front. If you've never been, the Lake Arrowhead courses are also quite nice and fun to play. The Pines has a beautiful clubhouse and bar with a huge patio and very good food and drink selection.we're playing on a Thursday and i was surprised at how full the tee times were already. they've got 3 courses open to the public this year (Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes, and Sedge Valley) plus the limited access Lido course. the demand must be strong if they're filling up that much golf this far out.
A lot of the good caddies from Whistling went over to Sand Valley.Whistling Straits was always the course I dreamed to play, but everyone I talk to says Sand Valley is so much better.

Make sure you hydrate. I played all 3 in two days back in 2022. Walking is mandatory and I found myself in the back of an ambulance after the last round from dehydration and cramping up. Would do it again however to play those 3 courses.Heading to Sand Valley and Erin Hills in May, can't wait!
