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
Excellent course.....crazy tight but still enjoyable...it was a pleasure
Worth the experience
A little wet but that’s to be expected this time of year (mid October). Bring lots of balls and a camera. Always a pleasure to play here.
Fall outing
Tough course requiring good drives and accurate iron shots. Beautiful natural views.
Well worth playing. Take extra balls for sure and be aware of poison ivy.
Hard course
Like me, senior, it's hard course
Even from white tee, too many holes cannot carryover from tee shot also par 3 holes too
Lovely layout and scenery course by the way
Great challenge
This course is a great challenge for a better player. If you are a 20+ handicap, play from the forward tees or you will be frustrated
Course in great shape except the old fairway bunkers that have been neglected. Either fill them with grass or sand.
Bring lots of balls!
Definitely a great course to play
A very challenging course!
This is a course for better players only. Conditions are quite good (except fairway bunkers that are dirt and weeds only). The long carries over rough are too challenging for most players. The rough is too high to see over! It needs to be cut back! Also the GPS on the carts are off by at least +/- 10 yards and should be recalibrated. My Garmin watch which I use elsewhere confirmed this.
If you are not a single digit handicapper, bring lots of balls!! For better players, a good challenge!
fairway bunkers?
The premium conditions and difficult but good course design and construction are fair for the price. But the fairway bunkers are partially overgrown, and I didn't consider them playable. How could I not have been somehow inform about this before a few holes into the round? This was especially unpleasant as it was my first time through and I couldn't see where the bunkers were originally from the tee boxes. Would I have been there had I known?
Not for amateurs
I can’t hit the fairway from the whites where I have always played from on most courses. 150-180 carry is a bit much for seniors so I personally will not play this course again. I refuse to use the forward ( women’s) tee boxes just yet.
It’s otherwise a great course.
Great experience
This was my first round here and it was a great experience. It’s pretty tight with some intimidating tee shots but it’s not a long course so balances out nice. The course is very well maintained and has some beautiful views and design features. If you struggle to hit it straight bring lots of balls! Played the back tees (blue) and shot 79 (I’m a 10 hdcp) looking forward to playing again!
Great Course
This course offered spectacular scenery and was well worth the cost of green fees. Very challenging with the amount of water around the course. Be prepared to donate a number of golf balls to the water and if you are only slightly off the fairway your ball may be surrounded by an abundance of poison ivy. I would be happy to play the course again.
great setup
First time there, was not disappointed. Really makes you think about what club to use. Long Par 3's which make this course challenging.
Where’s the marshal?
Very slow group in front of us holding up us a groups behind us. When we asked them to speed up play they slowed down even more. Very selfish!!
Other than that, excellent course and nice day. I’ll be back.
Dick and Steve
Great weather, nice pace of play. Fairways greens and boxes all in excellent condition. Hats off to all the staff.
