The best that we played on this trip

Don't get freaked out when you arrive and there are tons of people at the carts..they have 3 nines and got us started on time and no wait at the turn

Course was in great condition, deep bunkers and some decisions to be made with the water holes

Challenging course with a lot of traps

The course is very challenging with a lot of traps, water, and marshland.
Since I played golf at 10:41am, they did not honor my 1:33pm reservation even though I showed my confirmation e-mail. Thus I paid $69 (a guest fee through my friend). Then i was called around 1:20 pm (slightly raining), I explained what happened at the clubhouse. They said, "Your reservation is cancelled (said "yes" to them). After the game, I confirmed that the Clubhouse cancelled my reservation. Before that, I tried to cancel the on-line reservation but in vain (no key to cancel at Golfnow.com). I sent an e-mail to cancel the reservation with this explanation by replying to the email with the conformation but returned (undeliverable).

In short, I ask you to refund or give me proper credits for future games. I played golf there earlier due to expected rain by paying $69 because the Clubhouse did not honor my one-line reservation. At teeoff.com, I could cancel any reservations in one hour in advance, but no way to cancel the reservation at Golfnow.com. Please help me to get a refund or credits to my account in this case.

Course is amazing

Staff is very friendly, Course is in mint conditions, played all 27 holes and enjoyed them all. Greens roll pure and very difficult. Will definitely go play this course again next time I’m in town!

Great layout!!

Great straightforward layout with no holes that surprise you with hazards or OB. Course was in fantastic condition for this time of year. Just wish people would repair ball marks on the greens. But that’s a problem everywhere. I will be back.

Best in the area so far.

Got a great deal with golf pass. Less than $60. Had a 1:42 tee time as a single and they got me out a little early. Played Cameron- Stewart. Really enjoyed the course. Played in about 4 hours after being waived thru on the back nine. I’m new to the area so I’m exploring the courses in the Leland area. This is my 5th and is clearly the best. Not sure I’d pay $100 with all the other choices but it is a great set up. Greens were fast but true.

Thistle Golf Course

Thistle is always my first choice when visiting the Myrtle Beach area. A little more pricey than other courses in the area, but worth every penny.

Beautiful course

Everything here is top notch. Played the whites could have handled the blues I’m confident, but wanted to play with those we hooked up with. Cart path was a pain
but we were fine. Fired a robust 85 but it was first time out in a little while. Not a lot of
forced carries so my wife found it to her liking as well.

As good as it gets in Myrtle

This was our second time playing here and we will definitely be back. This place is a well oiled machine. Every detail for making it a great day on the links has been covered. Using a hot deal rate makes it even better
