After designing the universally well-received and highly successful Caledonia Golf & Fish Club course, golf course architect Mike Strantz was given free rein in designing its sister course, the True Blue Golf Course. And he built a bruiser.
While it was marketed to low handicappers after opening in 1998, it’s seen several changes over the years that have made it a course for players of all skill levels. Still, it remains one of the Grand Strand’s most challenging. Golf Digest, Golf Magazine, and Golfweek rank it as one of the state’s top courses, and it features wide fairways, a fairly hefty change in elevation, natural terrain, and lots of sand. Other features include water in play on six of its holes, hidden cart paths, and medium-sized greens.
While five sets of tees make the course accessible for players of all skill levels, make no mistake that this course can be challenging with island greens, multi-tiered greens, jagged bunkers, water and sand hazards, and more. An upscale course with all the amenities a golfer could want, the course measures 7,126 from the back tees.

Great Golf Coarse but pace of play was horrendous....our foursome felt pushed all Day and we waited on every hole.... 5 1/2 hours and we teed off 20 minutes behind .....we actually missed our Tee time at another coarse for the afternoon...plus we were exhausted from all the waiting.
not a big fan of starting on 1 and 10....I get it and understand but, we were last group to go of #1 and 2 groups that started on number 10 that morning had to wait on group in front of us and our group to tee off....it appeared to me that a group in front of us had 3 holes open in front of them ...

True Blue is one of my favorites but this year’s experience was terrible. It took us 6 hours to finish the round due to doublebooking tee times. I spoke with a few different employees and they are well aware of the issue but don’t seem like anything is being resolved. Course itself was great but I wouldn’t go back because of how terrible they managed tee times

True Blue at one point was my favorite course in the area but overbooking and pace of play has ruined it. The course itself was in good shape but it took our group six hours to complete the round while keeping pace with the group ahead of us. When we made the turn there were four groups waiting to start their round. Management needs to do a better job of scheduling tee times to clean up pace of play. It was apparent that this issue is well known but nothing is done about it. We have played this course many times but won’t be back until this problem is resolved.

Loved the layout. Loved the condition. Hated the pace of play! Would be in top courses if not for 5.5 hour round.
