Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, Pawleys Island SC: Living Near America's Top Public Course
Caledonia Golf and Fish Club is not a residential community in the traditional sense. Instead, it is one of the most decorated public golf courses in America, and homes in the adjacent Ricefields Plantation benefit enormously from the association. Whether you're drawn to Ricefields Estate Homes overlooking the Waccamaw River, smaller Family-Friendly Homes, or the investment value of living next to a course ranked number four in the country by USA Today, this guide covers everything you need to know.
Overview of Caledonia Golf & Fish Club
Caledonia Golf and Fish Club is Mike Strantz's first solo design, opened in January 1994 on 152 acres of the former Caledonia Plantation dating to 1797. The par-70 course plays a refined 6,526 yards with no homes within its boundaries, a deliberate design choice that creates an uninterrupted, Augusta National-like experience. The iconic avenue of 200-year-old live oaks leading to the antebellum-style clubhouse is one of the most photographed settings in American golf.
The accolades are extraordinary. USA Today ranked Caledonia the number four public golf course in America. It is a perennial fixture on Golf Digest's America's 100 Greatest Public Courses and Golf Magazine's Top 100 Courses You Can Play. A beloved tradition is the complimentary fish chowder served at the turn. The Caledonia Grillroom offers full-service dining, and the property is a popular weddings and events venue. Caledonia's sister course, True Blue Golf Plantation, sits directly across the street with its own residential condo community.
The Caledonia Experience
Playing Caledonia is a pure golf experience. Without residential development on the course, every hole unfolds through natural marsh, live oaks, and freshwater ponds without visual interruption. The antebellum-style clubhouse serves as both a golf facility and a celebrated event venue, and the Caledonia Grillroom is one of the better restaurants in the Pawleys Island area. Ricefields Plantation residents enjoy preferred tee time rates, typically in the $55 to $85 range per round. Key highlights include:
- Mike Strantz first solo design ranked among America's 100 Greatest Public Courses
- No homes on course, preserving an Augusta National-like playing experience
- Antebellum-style clubhouse with the Caledonia Grillroom and event facilities
- Complimentary fish chowder at the turn and a beloved traditions-based golf culture
Ricefields Plantation, the adjacent residential community, adds its own amenity layer with a community pool, riverwalk on the Waccamaw River, and a private boat launch. If you want to live directly on a golf course rather than adjacent to one, True Blue across the street offers condo living with Strantz course frontage.

Ricefields Estate Homes
The largest homes in Ricefields Plantation are custom-built estates ranging from 3,500 to 5,000 square feet, featuring four to six bedrooms, formal and casual living spaces, and premium lot positions. Many showcase Lowcountry design with raised foundations, wraparound porches, and mature landscaping. Prices for estate homes range from approximately $800,000 to over $2 million, positioning them alongside luxury homes at Heritage Plantation and The Reserve.
If you want estate living with a gated golf community wrapper, compare with The Reserve's custom estates or Heritage Plantation's colonial manors. The Ricefields advantage is proximity to arguably the finest public course in America.

Within Ricefields, compare family homes with the Waterfront Properties if river access matters, or the Ricefields Cottages for a smaller, more manageable option.
Waterfront & River-Access Properties
Ricefields Plantation sits along the Waccamaw River, and select properties enjoy direct waterfront views or easy access to the community's boat launch. The riverwalk provides a scenic path along the water for walking and cycling. Waterfront properties command a premium and are among the most desirable addresses in the community, typically priced from $600,000 to over $1.5 million.
If waterway access is a top priority, compare Ricefields' boat launch with the full 40-slip marina at Heritage Plantation or the Harbor Club Marina at The Reserve.
Buildable Lots
Ricefields Plantation occasionally offers buildable lots for buyers who want to design a custom home near Caledonia. These lots vary in size and position, with prices depending on proximity to the river, mature tree coverage, and lot dimensions. Custom building here gives you the freedom to create a Lowcountry home tailored to your specifications while enjoying preferred rates at two of America's finest public courses.
For more abundant lot inventory, Litchfield Country Club offers the area's most affordable buildable lots starting under $30,000. Within the Caledonia corridor, building in Ricefields gives you the unique advantage of living adjacent to a no-homes-on-course Strantz masterpiece.

These cottage-scale homes start in the $250,000 to $400,000 range and appeal to retirees, first-time buyers, and seasonal residents who want proximity to Caledonia and True Blue without the expense of a larger property.
If you want an even more affordable entry into the Pawleys Island golf lifestyle, True Blue condos start in the $240s across the street, and Litchfield Country Club interior homes begin in the low $300s.
Nearby Schools & Attractions

Ideal for Serious Golfers and Families
Living in Ricefields Plantation near Caledonia Golf and Fish Club is a unique proposition in the Pawleys Island market. Serious golfers get preferred access to a course ranked among the top five public layouts in America, plus its sister Strantz design at True Blue across the street.

And for anyone who values architectural and natural beauty, the Caledonia experience, from the live oak entrance to the antebellum clubhouse, is simply unmatched.
If you want to live on a Strantz course rather than adjacent to one, True Blue offers condo living with direct course frontage. For a gated community with a different architect, Pawleys Plantation (Nicklaus) and The Reserve (Norman) are worth comparing.
