Great track

From the moment we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff. The range was in great shape to warm up. The course was in excellent condition. We played McKay first then Cameron. McKay was in a little better condition but both were great.

50/50

Stewart was in not as good of shape as McCay which was fairly good but not great. Both courses needed cleaner planted beds for improved asthetics. Started 20 min late. Pace of play was a bit off the mark (our foursome waited on a threesome in front of us). Not up to par for full price but ok for tee off deal.

Great Course & Facilities

Perfect weekend golf round! Truly amazing golf course, staff, facilities and the weather sure helped too. A bit slow on the back nine but I suppose that is expected on a nice weather day Saturday in March.

ALWAYS in primo condition !!!

Been playing Thistle on a regular basis for the past 7 years and unless I hit one sideways I’ve NEVER had a bad lie !!! Course is ALWAYS. In perfect condition and they continue to improve the course, the amenities, and the entire experience each and every year !!! All 3 nines will keep you attention albeit not the most difficult course u will play but the satisfaction after a good round is extremely fulfilling !!!

Friendly, Efficient and Challenging

The Thistle is unlike any other course in the Myrtle area. The facility and amenities were impeccable. Efficient bag drop and welcoming staff. Really nice staff that made you feel like they were welcoming you to their home. Great range and practice green. Played Cameron/McKay. McKay was closed and my son and I spaced it. Staff let us continue to play without a hitch and laughed with us and at us at the end. Highly recommend this course.
