Oak Marsh is a Pete Dye-designed golf course that is one of three 18-hole courses at Omni Amelia Island Resort. The Oak Marsh course meanders alongside the Atlantic Ocean, providing sweeping views and an ever-changing sea breeze.

Appropriately named after its terrain of scenic salt marshes and moss-draped heritage oaks, the golf course has a stunning landscape that is ideal for a challenging round. Dye protected the natural beauty of the island by carefully maintaining the tidal marshes, oceanfront dunes, grassland, and savannahs. The layout features tight fairways and small, bulk-headed greens, a classic Dye element. There are a variety of bunkers strategically placed throughout and water comes into play on fourteen holes.

Over all course in good shape, fun to play. Little tight fairways on some hole so you need to be accurate, tee to greens good shape.

Great Course

Course was in great shape. They could have made a few more holes cart path only as some inconsiderate golfers felt the need to rut up the course.

Great course

Awesome staff, course was in great shape. I play here everytime we vacation on the Island. Good practice facilities.
The course is challenging, fun and scenic. It will require less drivers off the tee, at least for me. There can be trouble with lots of places to go OB or lose a ball. But a more skilled golfer will love the challenge of working the driver and taking advantage of distance gained. Greens are smaller and challenging but are very receptive to approach shots. They are Bermuda greens and will require some pace to the hole but that is Bermuda greens
I highly recommend this course. Overall great experience. .

Enjoyed our round at Oak Marsh

First of all, the Omni property is beautiful! The course was easy to find, and the staff were all friendly and helpful. We checked in, hit some putts and range balls, then went to see the starter. He put us out a little early because the twosome that was supposed to be there hadn't checked in yet. Fortunately, we played with a fun father/son duo who had played the course a few times previously. The course is sufficiently challenging, and somewhat narrow, so be warned. We found 17 and 18 to be especially challenging, and next time we will have a different strategy for those holes. It was a very hot day, Florida in July, go figure, but one of the staff showed up when we were on the tee at 12 and offered us chilled wet towels. Ah, saved the day. We did order hotdogs and a bag of chips from the cart attendant, $36! Tasty hotdogs but very expensive. I guess it's a resort! Looking forward to playing here again.

Good course

Beautiful course. It has been plugged within the last few weeks so the greens are still a little bumpy. Some greens has some bad spots but overall the course is in good shape. Hope I can play better next time.

Great course!

The course was in great shape even with the greens having recently been aerated. All staff were very friendly. My only complaint, if you want to call it one, was we only saw the beverage cart once on the second hole. Would have been nice to see it more often.

Great conditions and design

Loved this design. Even though the greens were just punched, it was still a lot of fun to play. And the course made accommodations to the price given they had just punched the greens.

I would go back, and it’s probably one of the best layouts I have played.

It was the 2nd day open after complete course punching. Surprised how well course was healing. It was worth the $47 I paid to play.
