About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6471 yards
Slope 129
Rating 70.9

Oak Marsh Golf Course is one of the truly classic Pete Dye-designed golf courses in the world. The course was built in 1972 shortly after the completion of the Harbour Town Golf Links at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The recent renovation led by Beau Welling was completed in 2025 and was thoughtfully planned to protect the architectural feel of Pete Dye’s original creation.

At par 72, this 6,471-yard course is noted for its tight fairways and small greens, meandering along serpentine salt marsh creeks and through the moss draped heritage oaks for which Amelia Island is famous. With five tee options, the modernized layout was designed to meet the requirements of today’s game brought on by technological advancements in equipment, providing a high-quality and consistent playing experience.

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.

Playing between the raindrops

Fairways were in excellent condition. Greens were recovering from recent aeration and were high and bumpy.

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.

Greens recovering - super track!

Starter was nice and a great help - let me go out early! Great value for $50 morning tee time!! Don't expect to make any putts longer than 7 feet, aeration still a little bumpy. Bunkers need to be raked out too. Course is so nice overall though - I'll be back for sure.

Pushy Ranger

Got pushed along by ranger only to be held up by group on tee in front of us. Less than 2 hours for nine holes which is pretty close to average. I won’t be back!
