Oak Bay Golf Course

About
Carved from the scenic woodlands along the eastern shores of Georgian Bay, Oak Bay Golf & Country Club incorporates rocky outcroppings and natural water features into its challenging championship design. The eastern coast of the bay is one of the largest freshwater archipelagos in the world and is home to diverse flora and hundreds of varieties of birds and fish. Both the fairways and greens are sloped and well manicured. In addition to the many natural challenges, which include trees and ponds, there are numerous strategically placed traps to watch out for. Oak Bay is located less than two hours north of Toronto but its beautiful setting makes it feel much further.

Hole 15, Par 3, If you make it over, green is two tiered! Photo submitted by taz4golf on 10/04/2013
Difficult course some stupid holes
Overall I like Oak Bay but they have made it harder and therefore less enjoyable. They moved the tess back on #1 making the opening hole much harder and from a gentle beginning to a vary tough hole. Makes no sense. And # 9 is a ridiculous golf hole. Par 5 with a driver, a lay up and a very long 3rd shot - get rid of #9
Needs improving
Course is very challenging, no beverage cart or food. Bring your own!
Breathtaking Golf Club in Muskoka region
From the time one arrives at the parking lot, the greeting from the staff to the pro shop was exceptional. The views of 1st, 6th, 9th hole are unbelievable. The greens very very fast compared to all other courses in the area. a total delight. Club house had great dinner and beer.
Excellent condition. Need a marshal to speed up pace of play.
Always enjoy the challenge. There are no givens on any of the long par 3’s.
That’s not fescue
This use to be my favourite course , but that not fescue. That a forest growing between the tee boxes.
I know it a tough track, and you need to carry a bit.
But you can’t even see the other side and I am 6’ 3.
Nice touch
You receive a bottle of water, golf tees and a towel with your green fee. A nice touch!
Tough course. I lost 11 balls! But thoroughly enjoyed my round.
Short but TOUGH
Target golf for pretty much every hole. Very well maintained course. Higher handicaps make sure you bring a few balls and lower handicaps don’t let the yardage let you think this is a walk in the park. Beautiful course!
Great course
Great day great course great value
This course is a tough as you want it to be.excellent condition what more could you want??
Stay Away
If you’re going to play golf and only want to see nice scenery then you might want to play here however everything from the club pro who is the most uncooperative service individual I’ve ever met at a golf course to the actual cost to play here is Unbelievably bad
It is my understanding that the cost to play here next year is now the highest in Muskoka and trust me it is not worth it they have no marshals and the chance of getting hit by balls as a result is very high stay away terrible terrible place
Annoying Sprinklers destroys round
Great course. Wet does not drain very well for a newer course. Also lots of rain lately but unfortunately not engineered properly or should never have been there in the first place.
Sprinklers going off on every tee deck……why?
Asked one of the workers & his response was …….”we have to do it every year”. I’m sure you do water tends to freeze. But don’t do it when golfers are on the tee decks. We paid good money to play & we have to deal with this crap. Ha ha not funny.
I’ll be looking for a full refund or credit & will get it.
Very unprofessional unfortunately makes the owner & the pro at this course both look bad. I will be in touch & GolfNow from whom I purchased the green fees from should also be aware & are also responsible as they receive a pretty good cut of the green fees.
Gentleman in pro shop was excellent along with the cart lady.
