Everything about the round at The Thistle was very good. The quality of the facilities is first rate. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. The course itself was all the fun you want in a good golf course. The greens were excellent although difficult to putt due to the undulations and fast conditions. Even though the back nine had just been top dressed it did not adversely affect play at all (dressing was very fine and thinly applied).

This is a fun course to play. The course has been in good condition every time we've played it. The greens are especially nice for the price. A little rough on some edges (e.g. some cart path areas, some areas just off the path) but they are in the middle of improving that with new sod, etc. Otherwise, everything was really very nice. In addition to conditions and price, this is a straightforward and extremely pleasant course to play for people of any skill level.

I play a lot of golf all over. The entire experience here today was great. Everyone on the staff was friendly and helpful, especially Bob running the place. Course condition was top notch at most any price and unbelievable at these prices. The greens were perfect.....fast and smooth......if you missed a putt it was your fault, not the green's. Do not miss this course if you are anywhere in the greater area.

Very good overall experience. Pro shop was very friendly and efficient. Course itself was very good. Layout was extremely good. Conditions could have been better on some tee boxes and in some areas of the course. Fairways and greens were quite good, but there were some weeds around some edges and in some fairways. If you like traditional Donald Ross designs you will really enjoy this one. Terrain is much like that at nearby Augusta National....just not course conditions.

Enjoyed playing the course. Good layout and design. Course in pretty good condition overall....just a little rough around the edges. Maybe biggest problem was lack of drinking water on the course....it's awfully hot in Myrtle Beach in the summer and you need water. No service of any kind on the course (no drink cart, no water coolers, no ranger checking). Bring your own drinks and you'll get a good bang for your golfing buck.
