We love hearing about our golfers' experiences, jose2269047. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course!
Overall nice track
Overall it let a nice layout and its a target oriented golf course. The Ultradwarf Bermudagrass greens were slow and didn’t putt true. I think they are not mowing them to protect them from the heat.
Hello, mp52dave. Thank you for visiting us at Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
COVID over?
Question policy of not putting clubs on a cart until 5 minutes from tee time. Was made to ride with a stranger, yet no water jugs on course due to COVID protocol? Water was cutoff at course restroom due to maintenance waiting on a part. Mowers did not display proper etiquette. When done, no staff helped with our clubs and had to walk mine about 200 yards to my car. Course layout was great and in good shape. With a little training of the staff and starters to be more friendly and accommodating, this course would be much more enjoyable. Food and service in the clubhouse was good. With no water provided on the course, we saw a beverage cart twice the first nine and not at all on the second nine. Time to service the water stations again.
Hi, Bink4golf. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about water on the course is important to us. We are glad to see you rated everything else to be great during your game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course. We hope to see you again soon.
First time review
From the minute you drive up to the Scottish castle inspire club house to the warm greeting at bag drop - this is one of the best golf experiences I’ve ever had. The staff even greeted us by name without ever meeting us. Course was impeccable and you would never know you were in the north murre beach area. Towering pines and live oaks insulate the course with just a few houses that are along the course. Mounded fairways and bunkers/water hazards galore - this course was so much fun to play. Will definitely add it next time we are in town.
Hi, wpstewartjr0421. Wow! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time and enjoyed the course, and we hope to see you again soon for more fun! Thanks for choosing Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course.
My Favorite in the Myrtle Beach Area
Thistle has become my favorite course when visiting the Grand Strand. I’ve never been disappointed in the course, service, or amenities despite playing there numerous times. The course was is in outstanding condition; the greens are the best I’ve experienced so far this summer.
Hi, barryduncan. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course.
Great course.
Greens were the truest I have found in Carolina this year.
Played Tues (Stewart to McKay) and had to come back on Thursday (Cameron to Stewart). Being able to catch all 27 was perfect.
Get a yard book or use your phone for the hole overviews cause they’ll help on your first round.
Great staff, beautiful club house, great people on the course made this a trip to remember.
We will be back!
Thank you for your review, robwalko. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Great course with hot deal pricing
Course was in good shape and greens were speedy. Lots of bunker and water hazards so play smart. Fun course and the cart lady was friendly and helpful. Even found my phone for me after I lost it on the course.

Highly Recommend Thistle
This was my first time playing Thistle and I was greatly impressed. Everyone from the Bag Drop and Starter, to the Clubhouse/Restaurant was extremely friendly, courteous, and professional.
The course itself was fantastic. Everyone in our foursome was impressed with the layout and condition. It was challenging, but forgiving from the tee.
The pace of play was perfect. We never waited at a tee box and no one behind us was pressing us.
Overall, I enjoyed it very much and look forward to visiting again...Kudos Thistle!
Thank you for taking the time to review us! Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Thistle Golf Club - Cameron Course thanks you!

Worth playing for!
I’ve played almost all the courses around, Sunset Beach, except Thistle. I was highly amazed of the condition of the course and the layout. The friendliness of the staff and above all how regal and majestic the clubhouse looks giving you the feel that your in Scotland. I thought it was fun and I play well there. I will definitely play there again on future vacation trips.
