The Piper Course at Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club is a scenic, player-friendly nine-hole layout in Sunset Beach, North Carolina, just a short drive north of Myrtle Beach. Designed by renowned architect Dan Maples, the par-36 course stretches to 3,399 yards from the longest tees and is one of three distinct nine-hole layouts that make up Sandpiper Bay’s 27-hole facility.

Carved through the Carolina pines, Piper features gentle doglegs, elevated tees and greens, and a distinctive mix of three par 3s and three par 5s. That combination creates plenty of scoring opportunities while giving golfers decisions to make on the risk-reward par 5s and chances to attack the flag on the par 3s.

Sandpiper Bay is known for offering an enjoyable, approachable style of golf, with multiple tee options that make the experience suitable for a wide range of abilities. Conveniently located in Sunset Beach, about 20 minutes from Myrtle Beach, the Piper Course is an appealing choice for golfers looking to add a relaxed and memorable Dan Maples design to their Grand Strand golf trip.
