Rating 71.2

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.

Still a great course and getting better

I’ve been coming to this course periodically since the club house was a trailer surrounded by a beautiful course. The course has matured nicely and the club house is a large handsome building with a great restaurant and patio. the three of us all had something different, and we all enjoyed are lunch. The course was in good condition for a wet early spring - cart path only and slow greens was to by be expected. This is such a challenging layout thats a lot of fun to grind you’re way around while taking in some pretty outstanding scenery.

Pre-Muskoka Course

Why drive to Muskoka to play when you’re already there with this gem of a course. Keep your ball straight is the name of the game for many of these holes. Beauty of a course.

One of the best rounds of the Season

We lucked out with the weather which I'm sure contributed to the experience but this course was in immaculate condition with the exception of the tee boxes that they were aerating. (no advance notice of this) No matter what your level of play this course offers something for everyone. We are Senior ladies so we opted to play a combination of yellow and red tee blocks so we could avoid some of the long carries but not miss out on some challenges. It was very playable and the pace of play reasonable. A great golf day.

Overall, golf is way too expensive - especially for those of us who are retired. A reduced rate for Seniors would allow us to play the course more often. We also had no help at the end - three men watched me return the cart which was a fair distance from the clubhouse. Guess they were having a good conversation or ignore old women! A word of warning - the adult beverage prices in the clubhouse are a little over the top. compared to others in the area but it does provide a pretty view and the food was good.
