The course

Many golfers consider Caledonia the best course in the Myrtle Beach area, and the tee sheet proves it. Times are limited and this course books up fast.

Mike Strantz built Caledonia in 1994 on the grounds of a former rice plantation, and the par 70 delivers a dazzling display of unique holes over marsh, lakes, waste bunkers, and sand. It is also one of our GolfMaster Jim's personal favorites.

Do not let the modest yardage fool you. From the championship tees Caledonia plays 6526 yards at a 72.1 rating and 140 slope, with men's tees at 6121 yards and ladies' tees at 4957. Greens are Champion Bermuda, and golfers rate the experience 3.89 out of 5. Book this one early in your planning.

It is a shame how they take care of this golf course. This is the second time I scheduled this course for our group. The first time was also a big disappointment.

The reputation in advance matched the expectations and we look forward to returning for a next experience!! Definitely a course you need to play once for course knowledge.

Not what I was expecting for $ 250. Conditions sub-par for the price.

Course is usually the best of the week but some of the putting surfaces were not a good as normal and pace of play was a little slow especially on the back nine.

Caledonia is a beautiful property. The greens were soft, yet true. The staff was cordial and accommodating. Beautiful flower beds, and trees, just gorgeous. A must play course.

Wheeler

Tee Boxes were a little rough, but the rest of the course was great

Moore
★★★★★

We always enjoy the course and this year did not disappoint. It was our first round of the trip and all of the guys love the layout. We play it every year.

John
★★★

The course is good but it’s overpriced for what it is

Blake
★★★

I was mot thrilled with the condition.of the course. Specially the greens

Luppi
★★★

Wasn’t happy being rushed to golf starting around the 6th hole. We were keeping up with the group ahead of us. With the money we paid we were told if we didn’t speed up we might have to skip a hole. Not happy

Cavallaro
★★★

Tee boxes in tough shape. Course set

Peter

A great lay-out but very obvious all they care about is maximizing profits. Traps were a joke, haven't been machine raked in weeks. Slow bumpy greens with multiple grass types growing. So disappointed as this used to be a MB gem! Terrrible!

Bayuk

Beautiful as always

Flynn
★★★★★

Always a fun course!

Joseph
★★★★★

Some very interesting holes. Course in good condition. Bag drop guys were excellent. Enjoyed the course.

Michael
★★★★★

In my opinion the best course in Myrtle Beach. Beautiful and stunning backdrops, azaleas in full bloom along the ponds. Course was in amazing condition and the layout was very enjoyable. Staff were excellent, and the fish chowder at the turn was a great touch to the authenticity of the area. #1 course and experience for our trip!

Incredible views and overall elite course. Super friendly and helpful staff and complimentary chowder! Will definitely play this again.

Mark

Unfortunately, we did not play the course because of weather however we have played Caledonia many times before over the past 22 years and it is our most favorite course in Myrtle Beach.

N/A unable to play due to weather.

Rained out. Rain check provided. Not able to substitute rain check for merchandise.

Jake

Beautiful course and layout even in winter

Johnny
★★★★

Notified that it was cart path only just prior to teeing off due to overseeding. Then told to maintain a pace of play or we’ll be told to pick up and move to the next hole. Played True Blue the day before and it was not cart path only.

Jones
★★★★★

Our favorite course

Wonderful golf course. Great condition and pace of play was good.

Bill
★★

Beautiful scenery! Looked for much better conditions on a course of this price. Hated the pace of play! Will play somewhere else on next trip

Chris
★★★★

Pretty but not as amazed by it as I had hoped. The greens were very inconsistent

Jeremy
★★★★★

Best of the bunch! Great atmosphere but one odd thing: house rule where you could ground your club in all traps and take a practice swing in the traps. Very unusual.

Peter
★★★★★

Always top course

James
★★★★★

Loved the course itself. Was a very slow pace on the day we played which killed the rhythm of the game. Waited on all tee shots, shots to the green and second ones on par 5’s. Ruined the day. I would however play it again. Challenging track

Stephen
★★★★

Awesome course with really nice conditions from tee to green but the pace of play was not good ! 5 hour round, waited on every single shot. Would like to play again, need to be in the first few groups of the day would eliminate a 5 hour round.

Lee
★★★★★

Best course in MB area consistently. We have played this course seven times in the 25 years we have been coming to Myrtle Beach. Course was they dryest it has ever been, but still stood up to be such a wonderful track!

Eric
★★★★★

Great as always.

Burbank
★★★★★

Beautiful course and the fish stew at the turn was amazing. Clubhouse was beautiful and the course was in superb condition. It does lack a driving range just in case people didn’t know that.

David
★★★★★

The main reason we come down to Myrtle Beach. Great condition very friendly staff

Donworth
★★★★

Average condition compared to what we have come to expect at Caledonia

Rounsville

There was no reason that we had to play cart path only. The bunkers were terrible. Way over priced.

Was fun course. Conditions not as good as expected.

Jordan
★★★★★

Beautiful, difficult course. Wish we had saved for the last day

Patrick
★★★★★

Love Mike Stranz courses, but Tobacco Road is my favorite, then True Blue. Windy when we played. I’m a 17, shot a 94. Greens became quite quick as it warmed up, lots of dirt or fertilizer on the balls early on.

Carver
★★★★★

Great course, great staff, had a wonderful time.

Jim
★★★★★

This course was almost perfect. Some fairways were not cut well. I do recommend this course above Arrowhead. I rated this course as my second (2) best course.

Edward
★★★★★

This course was great as well. I would rate this number 2 on the 5 courses we played this was a great package

Cahoon
★★★★★

Beautiful, challenging course. Excellent staff, but pace of play issues due to groups going off on both hole number one and ten.
