Commented on December 15, 2008: "Early or late sitting on the back porch and watching golfers coming into 18 and hitting over water to the green is a hoot. It use to be more fun because everyone got to cheering, clapping and raggin guys (gals) who dump it into tidal waters of the old plantation. It must have got out of hand ... or someone put 6 balls into the drink, got upset and complained. Should have hit a better shot. It is as much fun but still worth sitting on the porch having a little pop and betting on if someone hits the green or goes into the drink by looking at their practice swing."

I had heard so much about it and had played the other top courses in the area. Frankly for what I paid, I was very very disappointed. It was too short and too easy to be considered a great golf course. Beautiful setting, great job with style. Very nice people but average golf course. As I said way too short and too many very average holes. If I had paid what I did for moderate golf courses in the area, I would understand. I am afraid I don't get it.

If you only get to play one course in Myrtle Beach, this is the one. The course is beautiful and is absolutely immaculate every time we play it.

Regardless of how long the course plays it's the nicest course, best layout, and best maintained course in Myrtle Beach. This should be considered a poor man's Augusta National.

I enjoyed the fact that we felt like we were out there by ourselves and didn't have "the neighborhood" watching. Something to be said for the lack of homes on a course and that it makes playing much more enjoyable.

The course was in great shape. The course is fair. Fairways were great where if you hit a good shot off the tee your ball sat up. It was just and enjoyable round of golf. The course wasn't over booked like some courses are, so you didn't feel you were on the clock on every shot. Wish more courses were set up this way.

We love Caldeonia and play it every year. The only complaint this year was the pace of play was awfully slow. The rangers could have done a better job of moving it along.

This was by far the best course out of the six that I played on this trip. It was immaculate, and might be the only one that I would replay and would certainly recommend to others.

Caledonia is what golf should be: A test of one's all-around game played upon a beautifully manicured course that uses the natural surroundings as a backdrop. It's beauty is inside and out as the clubhouse offers a warm and inviting feeling. The staff was polite and courteous and the old plantation feeling of the lounge made it tough to leave. The only thing I would have changed that day was the weather (cold), but the true essence of Caledonia will warm my heart through the coldest of New England winters.

I played Caledonia some years ago and this time I found out that this is a short, tough track. The greens were just awesome if you landed on a uphill putt, if not forget it.

The setting is amazing. Clubhouse is one of the best in MB. The course is tough but fair - a little short but the design more than makes up for it. Every hole was enjoyable. Condition was immaculate for late summer. Must play.

Once you get beyond the hefty peak greens fees ($200+), this place is great. The only small complaint I have is the 9th hole, it's as though they only designed 17 holes and had to throw one more in at the end of construction. It is a short, boring par 3 which would be fine on most courses but not when compared to the other 17 holes here. All said, I loved this course.

Have played there 4 years in a row, every year it loses some of its luster as far as conditions. Last played in Sept. 09, mentioned after the round about the so-so conditions, the gentleman in the Pro Shop said, we try our best, but there are other courses who may want my business. Sure, I'm going back. NOT.
