About

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.

Chamber of Commerce Day

After being closed for almost 5 weeks, Oak Marsh reopened today and I booked a tee time last night when I saw the weather was going to be 73 and sunny. I do not think I have ever played here but wow, what an absolute treat!! No divots in the fairways and no ball marks on the greens as COVID-19 has kept golfers home. The course was in superb condition and being able to walk it was a real treat. Other than no cart girl/guy coming around with refreshments, the experience could not have been better. Perfect weather, perfect course and a true treat!!

Great course with low play right now

Marsh Oak is a terrific course. The fairways are pristine. Some of the greens have some minor winter damage that is being treated. The rest of the greens are in very good shape and putt well.

Because of the COVID restrictions many of the amenities have been cut back. Also, there are no ball washers on the course and no rakes in the traps. It would be nice if people playing out of the traps smoothed out their divots.

It is always a delight to play this course.

Always enjoyable and challenging!

Omni Amelia is an outstanding golf course! Everything from the tee boxes to the greens and fairways are immaculately kept up. The greens roll true and are fast. Top notch course, I love that Florida residents get it at a reduced rate. Makes it affordable for most. Come play here!!!

Good not great

190 to play this course, will not do it again. Would play again for something between 90-110 bucks. For 190 I was expecting much better conditions. The bunkers/sand seem to be of pretty cheaper quality, greens are fine but not great.

Views were certainly beautiful on a few holes, but you see most of the water views on the website.

This is a challenging course too, it’s a Pete Dye so you should know what your getting into, but would not advise to a higher handicapper (over 20 index).

Staff was fantastic other than our lunch waitress, who had some serious attitude. (We were being as nice and gracious as possible).

No more free range balls

Course was great as always. Good service and great conditions. Greens are very hard but great to put on. Rough could be thicker in some spots.

Biggest complaint is that the RANGE BALLS ARE NO LONGER FREE! I used to justify the extra $25 to play here over my other favorites in the area, but now that they charge for range balls I’ll probably chose to play elsewhere. Bad business decision Omni. You make plenty of money off the resort guests tee times. You didn’t need to charge for range balls.

Great time and course

I got together with my college friends and we truly enjoyed the Oak Marsh Golf Course. We played from the Blue tees on the Pete Dye course that winds through the salt marsh creeks and Spanish-moss draped oaks. The course is beautiful, teaming with wildlife to add to the championship experience. The course is challenging but fair to the higher handicap cap golfers. You have to play strategically because of the water, marsh and sand. The clubhouse is well stocked and the staff was friendly and helpful. There is a practice driving,chipping, sand and putting area to provide ample warmup. Overall the course was is very good condition.

Great Golf Course

We really enjoyed our round of golf. Half our group played from the Gold tees and the others played from the Blues. The course was in great shape, pace of play was excellent, and the course was challenging. The layout along the marsh creates some great views. Highly recommend this course and you won't be disappointed.
