Opened in 2000 at Sunset Beach (just north of the South Carolina-North Carolina state line), Thistle features extensive mounding, wide landing areas, creative bunkering (some run into the lakes) and large greens with some interesting breaks. It was voted among Golf for Women Magazine’s "Top 100 Fairways in America." This challenging 27-hole course takes its name from an ancient Scottish golf society dating back to the early 1800s. Thistle's layout poses a distinct Scottish links feel. with wind-swept fairways, large bentgrass greens and surrounding hillsides covered in heather and wild flowers.
