The properties' sister course - Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, is as highly acclaimed and is located just across the street, making this the best one-two punch in the region! True Blue features rolling tree lined fairways, with a generous amount of sand waste areas often framing the holes. There are partial concrete cart paths, with golfers often directed to drive through the sand and on the fairways. The design presents plentiful room off the tee, but many of the holes dogleg in one direction or the other, placing a need on accurate location. Trees, water and sand all combine to force golfers to shape their shots to fit the terrain.

The green complexes are often spectacular, both aesthetically and in regards to the degree of challenge. The putting surfaces are long and contoured, demanding accurate approaches towards the correct hole locations - with mistakes leaving long, breaking lag putts that also can result in a 3-putt experience. There is sometimes up to a three club difference, depending upon the location of the flag! Mis-hit approaches will also find the sloping swales and collection areas off the raised greens, affording golfers with some challenges up and down opportunities.

A good sand game is required here, as over 75 sand hazards are situated about the layout. The sandy waste areas often run the entire length of the hole - sometimes framing both sides. Water comes into play on 6 holes - but each time the hazard is daunting, challenging players to finish with the same ball they started with. The par three third features an island green, and the other five holes have water running nearly the entire length, with some risk/reward opportunities present. The group of par threes is excellent, with water and sand creating aesthetic beauty and challenge. The par five 4th is one of our favorite holes, as it doglegs to the left around a lake, and the par four 8th is also gorgeous, as it bends to the right with the fairway shaped by waste bunkers on both sides.
