Caledonia Golf & Fish Club and True Blue Golf Club Among South Carolina’s Top 5 Courses

Caledonia Golf & Fish Club and True Blue Golf Club, two of America’s top 100 resort courses, have added another accolade to their long list of honors. Golfweek has released its annual list of the “Best Courses You Can Play,” a ranking of the best public designs in each state, and Caledonia and True Blue were near the top of golf-rich South Carolina’s best. 

Golfweek ranked Caledonia as the Palmetto State’s fourth best public course, followed immediately by True Blue at No. 5. The only three courses above the duo – Kiawah’s Ocean Course, Harbour Town Golf Links, and the Dunes Golf & Beach Club – are regular hosts of PGA Tour or major championship events. 

The prestigious list, compiled by Golfweek’s nationwide team of course raters, evaluates public-access layouts based on criteria such as course conditioning, memorability, shot values, and overall design quality. The recognition is a testament to the continued excellence of the sister courses, both designed by legendary architect Mike Strantz.

“Being ranked among the top 5 public golf courses in South Carolina is an honor we take great pride in,” said Bart Romano, PGA, Director of Operations for Caledonia and True Blue. “Mike Strantz’s vision and artistry live on in both layouts, and we understand our responsibility to maintain that legacy. We’re delighted that Golfweek’s raters continue to recognize what traveling golfers have experienced for years – that these courses offer something truly special.”

Located adjacent to one another in Pawleys Island, Caledonia and True Blue offer distinct but equally memorable experiences. Caledonia, Strantz’s first solo design, is renowned for its Lowcountry charm, moss-draped oaks, and a dramatic finish along the Waccamaw River. True Blue, meanwhile, showcases a bolder, more expansive style, with wide fairways, sprawling bunkers, and dynamic green complexes.

Both courses have consistently earned national acclaim, including Golfweek’s recent ranking of both among America’s top 100 resort courses and Golf Magazine’s longstanding recognition of Caledonia as one of the nation’s top 100 public layouts.
