I played the course last year and enjoyed it very much. I walked, carried my own bag, and had a wonderful time.
This year, going back I attempted to take advantage of some of the amenities, including the caddie service.
Bad move. The first thing the caddie did was to begin going through my bag, without asking, to unload things and make it lighter. Since I carry my bag, and had done so a few days prior, I know it was not unreasonably heavy.
When I catch him, I offer to lighten the load on my own.
The only personal thing left on my bag was a towel. It was lost. Upon returning home and noticing it is missing, I called the course.
I had to leave a message and after two days, and no call back, I had to call them again. Then, instead of getting a call back from a staff member, or the caddie master, I get a text on my personal phone from the caddie.
Towel lost and still no appropriate response from Sand Valley.
Very unprofessionally handled in my opinion.
Also, the course conditions were too difficult for the average player, and probably nearly unplayable for all but single digit handicappers.
It is a beautiful peace of land though, but best enjoyed walking and carrying your own bag.
