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.

My favorite course in north Florida
Whats not to like. Reasonably priced. Perfect condition. Beautiful views. Amazing staff.
Good condition; don't plan to play again
The course was in good condition. The greens were fast and well kept.
The things that are issues for me are :
The fairways are very tight with out of bounds markers very close, too close for me.
The second cut of the fairways was high, VERY thick and extremely difficult to hit from.
There are overhanging trees in a lot of places.
I just don't care to play under those conditions. It is not a bad course, just more difficult than it needs to be.
Speacial!!
This is a wonderful course that should be played if you love golf and beautiful views. My only issue was the size of the driving range but I've played wonderful old courses who have no range at all.
The secret that must be done (even if it costs you a lost ball) is to make sure to play the 16th from the Gold teeing area. You'll be treated to one of the best views on the entire island.
Don't miss playing this course!
Lives up to its name!
Course was in great shape! Great layout around the marsh filled with oaks. It was very scenic. Not a long course but it was challenging. Value was awesome and well worth the 50 minute drive for me vs playing my local muni. Playing again this weekend!!
Great round
My personal opinion is the number of other reviews here that say "tight fairways" are a bit over-exaggerated; certainly not off the tee box unless you are a very long hitter. If they were tight anywhere it was just short of the green where being anywhere off center had you in the sand. Course is in great condition, and for some reason is much less popular than the Ocean Links, which allowed me to reserve a 730 tee time the night before and play a 2.5 hour round and rejoin the family by 1030. Free bag of range balls and friendly staff. Pro shop with wide selection of apparel, balls, shoes, and other accessories.
The course was in great shape. The scenery and onsite homes were amazing. We'll be back!
Oak Marsh
Just a fantastic golf course, and in great shape. Just a great place to play.
Amazing course!
Ourse was in fantastic shape with even the 2nd cut of rough manicured nicely. Greens were fast and true but still held well even from 6 iron range 190yds or so. Staff was helpful and very courteous. Carts have huge touch screens with gos to track your round, shot distance, score and distance from pin. It even cheers for you if you get a birdie or eagle. Definitely play this course if you have the chance.
Challenging for me
Narrow course; undulating/sloping greens makes it challenging. Beautiful course; though not many great views. Was surprised that there wasn't more staff helping take bags out of car; cleaning clubs etc. Driving range very small.
Will play again.
Excellent golf course! Great character and challenges.
Well maintained and interesting. Variety of decisions required. Greens were consistent in pace and offered a variety of positions. Good reads and solid puts paid rewards. Will certainly return. Friendly atmosphere and personnel.
Course is in great shape!! They are making great improvements to the greens and fairways. Marshalls need to do a better job of speeding up play. One 4 some had 5 groups backed up but other than that a nice layout.
Amelia oak
Great course layout. Narrow fairways and small greens. It would be a " tough" course for weekend golfer. Value through GolfNow was excellent.
Great views and great condition.
I plan to play here more often now. I had forgotten how wonderful this course is.
Great layout
We enjoyed the round. Course is in as good a shape as possible considering we haven't had rain in this area for over 3 weeks.
The marsh views are incredible. We'll play this course again - and again, and again....
