Dunes at Sandridge Golf Club

Sandridge has been my home golf facility since I moved to Vero Beach about three years ago, and with a few dozen rounds at the Dunes under my belt, I'm happy to say that it has all the main virtues of municipal golf.

The course layout is solid and typical of the late-80s - lots of mounding that no one would mistake for "minimalism," pretty comprehensive bunkering, but a good overall challenge.

Sandridge really stands out, especially among courses in its green fee range, with its conditioning. The greens roll as well as just about any public course you'll play for less than $80 or so, with the added bonus of the fact that at Sandridge, you'll pay a fraction of that (I'm talking $20 in the summer after 1 pm, with cart). The county is constantly working on the course, be it improving drainage, streamlining bunkers or, most recently, adding some back tees.

Finally, it's worth noting how great the Sandridge staff is. Bela Nagy and Jon Clark run the show with the help of a friendly support staff. Every Saturday morning is the "Blitz," a regular Stableford competition which the pro shop staff actually administrates (i.e. keeps scores and doles out winnings). There's a group of regular Blitz players who drive more than an hour to play in the game - that's how well-run it is. And as if all that isn't enough, Sandridge hosts the Indian River Golf Foundation, which is itself a wonderful junior golf program. If more facilities were like Sandridge, golf would be even stronger than it is.

Have played both the Lakes and Dunes courses. Both are really fun to play. The facilities are great!! You will not be disappointed that you played here.

We played the dunes course . It was Good Conditions all around . Greens were fast and some tough green elevations on 16-18 holes . Would come back and try the Lakes course .

Course was in excellent condition. Greens were firm and fast. Starter was friendly, courteous, and helpful.

Course is in excellent condition. Fairways are cut perfectly = always get a good lie. Greens are firm and fast.

Nous avons joué les dunes, juste envie de faire le parcours des lacs.le golf est superbe et intéressant.

Great course, layout pace of play slow due to the number of golfers

This was an outstanding course for the money,. it was so good I played both courses the Lakes and the Dunes, I would definitly recommend this course for anyone if you are staying in the area.

Played the Dunes course. Front nine and back nine are different in length and allow you to play a much different selection of clubs. Will definitely play again.
