The Sandbox

The Sandbox is Sand Valley's par-three short course, a Coore & Crenshaw creation set on a tumbling stretch of exposed sand and native scrub near the heart of the resort. Its greens sprawl over natural blowouts and sandy hollows, with holes ranging from tiny wedge pitches to muscular mid-iron shots, each framed by rugged bunkering and firm, receptive contours. Designed for speed, fun, and endless replay, it invites groups to play matches, experiment with creative shotmaking, and chase birdies as the light fades, all on foot across ground that looks and feels like the wild sand barrens the resort is built upon. The relaxed, walkable loop distills the strategic spirit of the resort's championship courses into bite-size holes where imagination matters far more than length.
