Oak Bay Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Great Time
We had 7 players for this day and it was a first time for 5 of us out of 7 and all of them loved it but it was very Challenging for some that couldnt drive straight and over 200 carry over the Pond and rough fescues lol..would be back again for sure :)
Bring lots of balls
Nice layout, good condition and great scenery. But with long forced carries and virtually no rough, you need to hit the fairway every time. Almost any ball not in the fairway is lost.
Outstanding.
So pretty, well manicured. Wish I could afford to join. Real test but fun. Can't wait to play Oak Bay again.
great course
This is a very well conditioned challenging course. Well worth playing. Very enjoyable round.
Great value for the money.
Only paid $12.00 so it was more than worth it.
Clubhouse is now open is really nice.
Fairways are in excellent shape.
Greens roll true and are fast. Be on your game.
You've gotta hit it straight off the tee. There is no room for error.
What a wonderful day! This course has beat me up more than once and today wasn't much different. I scored better but lost more balls. The 'golf gods' were well fed :-). Fortunately my short game saved my day. The greens were incredible and the overall condition of the course exceptional. The best part however, is the restaurant at the club house - superb!!! Great menu and over the top service. A must!
Very nice
The course was in great shape. I will play it again.
Oak Bay is worth the drive in Muskoka!
My friend and I were in for a surprise when we played Oak Bay. My friend was at his cottage in Muskoka and I live in Innisfil, so we were looking for a golf course close to both of us. We found Oak Bay on Golfnow and decided to give it a shot. We were blown away with this amazing course! First of all, Oak Bay is a fantastic but challenging golf course, and is only a 1 hour drive from Innisfil. The course is a fantastic design with beautiful Muskoka scenery. Accuracy is the priority on this course!!! You definitely need to hit the fairways on this course, but you will be rewarded with fun and challenging iron shots. The course was in fantastic condition and kudos to the Golf Superintendent and their staff. The greens were in fabulous condition and where rolling beautifully!!! Luckily we were the first group off at 7:30am so we were able to play the entire round in just over 3 hours. I've played numerous courses in the Barrie and GTA area and I don't think you can find a better value than Oak Bay! If you enjoy a challenging golf course and want to enjoy some Muskoka scenery I highly recommend you give Oak Bay Golf Course a try. We are already planning our return visit.
Oak Bay
Very good layout and conditions for a Muskoka course. Practice greens is being built. Friendly staff. Good value good scenery.
Tough Break
Great course that I enjoy more every time I play. Unfortunately. I did not complete my round and won't be playing for a long time after breaking my arm on the 8th hole when I tripped over a root while looking for my ball in the bush. Do yourself a favour and play here when in cottage country.
Play Oak Bay
This is an excellent course to play, great staff. Would play again
This course frustrates me.
I don't know what it is but I have played this course a few times and I always seem to have a poor angle to the flag on my approach. A little rough before the bush would be nice as well.
Muskoka at it's Best
This course demands you be honest with yourself and play the proper tee blocks. Accuracy off the tee is a key. The greens are the best I've played in Ontario this year and FAST! Not a single weakness in this gem!
Oak Bay is a great course
Very friendly and efficient staff in the Pro Shop and starter. This is a challenging course, so bring a few extra balls. Hole 6 and 15 will test your accuracy and distance. Great food and atmosphere in the bar and great service staff. Oak Bay is a good place to spend a day on the links.
Hidden Gem
I purchased a Hot Deal for 2 players with cart. I would and will return to this course. A hidden gem. The drive to this course is easy to get to and worth it. I even saw a deer scamper out of the woods after an errant shot. A second bad shot into a canal and some sort of huge fish fought over the ball. Beautiful well kept challenging course with friendly staff.
Thank-you for taking the time to review our course. We look forward to having you back again.
