I’m a big fan of random trivia, such filming locations. If you’re like me, you might wonder, where was “Caddyshack” filmed?

Davie, Florida, has a population of over 100,000 people. However, the Broward County town is only around 35 square miles. But the size and population aren’t its claim to fame. The cult classic film, “Caddyshack,” starring Bill Murray, is a favorite among comedy enthusiasts and golf lovers. And many “Caddyshack” filming locations were in the Sunshine State. Let’s take a look at some specifics!

Just where was "Caddyshack" filmed in Florida, you ask? The thing about Davie, Florida, is that when you first visit, you probably could imagine an old Western film being shot here without much needing to change.

Horseback riding is very common, and there are plenty of restaurants and buildings downtown that have a lot of Western flair.
However, the iconic '80s classic "Caddyshack" didn’t have any need for a Western backdrop, but instead needed a beautiful sprawling golf course and tons of nice weather.

For those unfamiliar with the film, "Caddyshack" centers around Bill Murray, a groundskeeper at a golf course who is at war over gophers infiltrating a country club tucked away in Beverly Hills.
The film also stars Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight, Michael O’Keefe, and more.

If anyone had ever asked me where was "Caddyshack" filmed, I would probably guess somewhere in California since the movie is set there. However, the golfing scenes were actually filmed at the Rolling Hills Golf Club in Davie, Florida!
