Best shape ever.

I have played this course ever since it opened and it is in the best shape ever. The greens are all good and healthy which makes for consistent pace. It is a must play right now

Improving but still a long way to go

this course continues to improve but is average at best. Hole 10 may be the worst hole in the Edmonton area. They just brought in a lot of trees and they really help to determine where to aim. New holes 2 and 3 are nice and 12 has some nice improvements. Give it a try!

Great greens

I have played several courses in Alberta and I would rate sandpiper greens as the best. Fast, firm and true. What more can you ask for

Slight improvement of greens

I wrote previously with regards to how slow the greens are, so I felt I needed to update. They are now cutting and rolling the greens so they are a little faster but they just aerated July 7th. Be warned, the mounds they constructed are overrun with weeds that are up to your waist so if you go in there it is an automatic lost ball. Either they don't have enough staff to cut the grass or they choose just to let it go wild..

under construction

They are undergoing course changes so there is a lot of mud and rocks. The course is poorly run. The most important things is the greens and by far EGM has the slowest greens in Edmonton. Some days they don't even cut the greens at all. Use this course as a last result

worth the visit

a very nice course with rolling fairways and good undulating greens. I try to play this course whenever I am in the area.

Needs work

poorly run facility - the greens are very slow and and the course has lots of weeds. The restaurant is far from the course and the beverage cart only runs on rare occasions. FYI - Course is getting renovated in 2013 so it will be muddy if it rains.
