Myrtle Beach/Crossville TN vacation

[Jimc11]

Spent a week in Myrtle with the family then moved on to TN for another week. While I did like the resort in TN should have just stayed at the beach for the 2nd week...played 7 rounds..here are the reviews
Myrtle,
Thistle, great course...12min tee times make it nice. Greens fairways and tee boxes in great condition. Will play it again.
Barefoot Fazio...awsome as always. Although it was cart path only for some unknown reason the day we played...and in 95 deg heat that made for a long day...
Dune Club (not Grande Dunes)...simply my favorite course in Myrtle...Awsome and well worth the money..traditional course...man I wish I was there now..
Tennesse
Farifield Glade Stonehenge and Heatherhurst Brae course..
playe both for $30 each...here in Northern VA they would easily cost $100 to play...great condition...favorite what the Brae Course..AWSOME...great views. perfectly manicured...they are both shorter course but challenging non the less...
Bear Trace Cumberland: Overrated in my opinion...it was in good shape..lots of blind shots..thick rough...greens we good...would rather of played hte Brea course twice...

Now back at work wishing I was still in Myrtle!!!

i just got back 2 weeks ago
heres a course for you
i hear the wizard is better
the course sure looks tough but if your hitting it straight its a joke, super nice though
you have to play the tip though, 10 yards short of 7000, the par 3s and par 4's are longgggg

2) Barefoot Fazio
3) Caledonia
4) Barefoot Love
5) Heritage
6) Kings North
7) Grande Dunes

i heard baerfoot was nice
how about the legends courses?

[Jimc11]

The Legends courses are nice but in my opinion are a bit overrated and overplayed. That may be tainted by an experience there...we were told that greens had not been punched in over a month. Well we payed our full cost get to the first green and they had been punched withing the last couple days...they did top dress them but it was awful. To their credit they did knock the price in half after we went back in and complained..
