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.

Great place until the 7th hole

Course was fair at Best

staff was good

got into an argument with the Ranger and he threw us off the course and told us not to come back over the fact They had four groups on one hole and I wanted to play through but they didn’t allow it

Thank you for playing Oak Marsh Golf Course. We’re sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars. Thursday was a busy day for us but the pace of play was still moving along smoothly. We understand you may have had a conversation with the ranger but I can assure you that you were not thrown off the course. On a busy day like Thursday, we just ask that golfers don’t take it upon themselves to skip multiple groups during the round. Again, we apologize if you didn’t enjoy your round as much as we’d hope for but we definitely would like you to come back and give us another try in the near future.

Fun day

We picked a fairly hot day to play but the course was certainly not crowded and I was surprised. This is a very nice course for the amount we spent on our hot deal. The cart girl called our lunch order in while we were on the 8th hole so when we made the turn it was waiting for us. Pace of play was what ever we wanted because no one in front of us but we had a 2 man team to catch us fairly quick so we let them play thru. The course was in very good shape and I just wish it wasn't an hour and 1/2 drive for me or I would play more often. We are very fortunate to live in Florida where golf is available year round. Everyone should visit the courses in the Amelia Island area as they are very well maintained. This one will bring a smile to your face. Hope you have as much fun as I did. God bless America!

Amelia Island Oak Marsh Summer Round

Quiet and peaceful day in nature on Amelia Island's Oak Marsh golf course. The hot and humid weather enabled us to play a fast paced round while giving us the time to enjoy the Ibis's, rabbits and fabulous marsh views.

Course is well maintained from tees to greens. No complaints, especially at this price point courtesy of Golf Now special!

Round with Atlanta Friend

My friend was on Amelia for business and we decided to play here. Fee was greatly reduced due to greens having recently been aerated (but effects were minimal). We had the course to ourselves early on Saturday afternoon. Very picturesque course with some very memorable holes. Great experience.

Wednesday Away From Work

The course was in great shape even though they aerated the greens 10 days earlier. The course was slow for the day so I went out as a single and had no issues playing. Beautiful and fun course to play. I highly recommend.

Great course

Other than the greens just being punched, the course was in great shape. It was almost like no one had been playing on it. The fairways were plush. Very hard to get into a lot of trouble on the course. It is fairly open for the most part.

A must play if you’re staying on Amelia Island

I’ve been coming to Amelia Island for the last three years and decided to play Oak Marsh because of the great FL/GA resident discount. Wow, what a beautiful course with some very nice scenery. The course is fair but tough at the same time, this is a shot placement and accuracy type course. The greens played very well and rolled true, this will be part of my course rotation from here on out!

This was my first visit to Amelia Island. Made a deal with the family to let me play here while they visited the downtown area. I still believe I got the better deal! The aerated greens have completely healed and the fairways are perfect too. In fact I was impressed by how well the entire course was maintained. There are several areas on the course were ice and water are provided. Even the cart girl came by many times to make sure I was fine. The entire staff was nice and very friendly. In closing, just when you think it doesn’t get any better, you are presented with three picturesque finishing holes. Hope to visit again...soon!!!

Nice Pete Dye work

I was staying at Omni Hotel. I wanted to try Long Point but found out it was Ladies club tournament. I must say I was impressed with the course conditions as it poured rain most of the night and we were off the cart path. I played saturday also. both rounds were finished in 3.5 hours. The last three holes are spectacular. What a way to finish.

I was able to store my clubs between rounds. Enjoyed lunch at the grill. Highly recommend.
