Caledonia Golf & Fish Club climbs Golfweek Magazine’s ‘Top 100 Courses You Can Play’ rankings

Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, one of the best courses in Pawleys Island, has risen to No. 76 on Golfweek Magazine’s biennial list of the “Top 100 Courses You Can Play,” moving up an impressive eight spots from its previous ranking.

Mike Strantz’s first solo design, Caledonia masterfully blends South Carolina’s Lowcountry beauty with the late architect’s vivid imagination to deliver a course where players from across the nation flock.

“Being recognized by Golf Magazine as one of America’s top public courses is a tremendous honor,” said Bart Romano, PGA, director of operations for Caledonia and its sister course, True Blue. “The ranking is a testament to Mike Strantz’s visionary design and to our team’s ongoing commitment to delivering an exceptional experience to every golfer who steps onto the course.”

Caledonia is only a short drive to the mainland from the historic town of Pawleys Island.

Caledonia has long been a standout on the Pawleys Island golf scene, offering a layout that is both visually striking and a delight to play, culminating with the unforgettable 18th hole that requires an approach shot over water to a green that resides in the shadow of the course’s stately clubhouse.

This latest accolade adds to Caledonia’s extensive list of honors, reinforcing its place among the nation’s best golf destinations. Caledonia is also ranked among “America’s 100 Greatest Public Courses” by Golf Digest, and Golfweek has ranked it among the nation’s top 100 resort courses and as a top 5 layout in golf-rich South Carolina.

Less than a mile from Caledonia, its sister course, True Blue, offers a contrasting but equally memorable Strantz design. True Blue features expansive fairways framed by dramatic waste bunkers and imaginative greens complexes. It is also ranked among Golfweek’s Top 100 Resort Courses and South Carolina’s top five public layouts, solidifying its status as one of Hammock Coast’s most acclaimed designs.
