Ocean City Golf Club - Newport Bay
Rating Snapshot
About
Ocean City Golf Club boasts 36 holes of championship golf. The Seaside Course opened in 1959 and it was later joined by the Newport Bay Course. Both offer scenic views of the surrounding marshes and bay. Newport Bay is a formidable challenge but it will test your ability to think strategically, not your distance. Strategically placed bunkers come into play and the subtle contours of the landscape were utilized to their full extent. The course is a formidable test but it is player friendly enough to appeal to all skill levels. The golf course also touts some of the most scenic views on the Mid-Atlantic coast, although the surroundings are more Carolinian in feel. Both of Ocean City's courses offer something different. Seaside has a more traditional design but both offer plenty of variety.

great value
course was in very good condition. staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. beer girls were very friendly and made the rounds every 2-3 holes. prices were very reasonable (2 beers 2 gatorades and bag of ice $14). only complaint was amount of bugs/ mosquitoes, but wasn’t horrible.
Unfortunately just not good
As a pretty solid golfer, played a lot of golf. Great views. Cool track. But just not in great condition. Paying $175 is whack for this place. Go elsewhere in the area!
Pretty much perfect
Greens were amazing and true, staff was friendly and as always accommodating
Favorite in OC
Haven't played this course in a number of years since we just moved back into the area but since GolfPass had a deal posted, we jumped on the opportunity. Pace was a little slow as our twosome was playing behind another twosome and then a foursome. Course was in pretty good shape as they just aerated a couple of weeks ago. Greens were lightning fast. had the wind pick up once we got closer to the bay but that was to be expected.
Does not disappoint.
Newport Bay is truly one of the best golf courses in the Mid Atlantic. Strategically set up to be affected by the wind on every hole on the back 9. Small, fast greens and forced decisions off of the tee. What this course lacks in length, it makes up in strategy.
Why was a 6 some allowed to play?
There should be a golf ranger on the course to prevent people from joining up and playing 6 in a group.
Great views
Great challenge, bring some extra balls. Fun course, very scenic, great local feel, well kept. Pace of play was nice. Highly recommend and the price is fair
Much improved
Played 4-5 years ago, massive upgrades to clubhouse and overall vibes. Great practice facilities. Two cart people and a half way house. Greens were in great shape, as was rest of course.
Great course, slow pace of play on a busy Saturday morning
