Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa - Oak Marsh
About
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!!
Hi Pdhitman. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Omni Amelia Island Resort - Oak Marsh!

Oak Marsh
Final days before Corona virus Omni shutdown. Everyone in a down mood, including me. But they were great, course was tough, pace play great! Will pray for all the staff, that we can all play again by summer.
Hello, thank you for such a kind review. We did unfortunately have to temporarily shut down due to COVID-19 and are hoping to re-open as soon as it is safe for our staff and great customers. We're looking forward to seeing you then! Thanks for playing Oak Marsh GC.
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.
Thank you for your kind review! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Omni Amelia Island Resort - Oak Marsh.
Wuhan golf rules
Great experience. They tried to protect the customers as much as possible. Course in decent shape. Greens very firm but good putting. Overall very enjoyable.

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!!!

Best value around
Greens were a little spotty but tees and fairways were as good as I’ve ever seen them!
Thank you for visiting us at Omni Amelia Island Resort - Oak Marsh. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
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).
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Omni Amelia Island Resort - Oak Marsh. We hope to see you again in the future.

Great test of all clubs
The course is in tremendous shape, and you will use every club in your bag.
Select the proper tees, for a challenge. Greens are slick and will challenge with design.

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.
Thank you for visiting us at Oak Marsh at Amelia Island Plantation. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Course is really nice, greens however were another story. Really slow and not a lot of grass on the greens.
Hello, Chad4212930. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Great Pete Dye layout
A great challenge off the tee, Dye layout keeps you off balanced at times into tough tabletop greens. Fun course to play and in great shape. Greens putt true!
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating, jakaveli1980! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Oak Marsh at Amelia Island Plantation!
First off Monday morning
Played as a single first off. Nice staff, nice facilities.
Tees magnificent. Fairways mostly good, greens are spotty and sprayed with green dye. Real nice layout, crowned greens a bit tiresome,Pete!
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Oak Marsh at Amelia Island Plantation.
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.
Your feedback is important to us, u314159790609. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Oak Marsh at Amelia Island Plantation.
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.
