Ocean City Golf Club - Newport Bay
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 time and no crowd
Had a wonderful round of golf with no one pushing us or slowing down or pace of play. Greens were a tad slow but otherwise course was in good shape.
Newport Bay
Fun course. Tons of great views and tons of water. The greens were in great shape for how early it is.
great condition
We liked the course a lot.
we would like to return again.
Favorite course
Great fairways, greens, weather, price and staff.
Newport bay the place to play in o.c. Area
Newport Bay
Course was in excellent shape and staff was very friendly. A lot of holes overlook marshland. However, it's not that special to be worth full price, and not sure it's even worth $60 GolfNow rate.
Scenic Marshes
Forgiving on some holes. Managing the clubs for various marshes & water on others. Played by myself and was waved through by 3 groups finished in 3 hours. Nice & flat and scenic water holes.
Newport Bay Ocean City gem!
Unlike similar courses which offer spectacular golf holes adjoining beautiful wetlands, Newport Bay also gives the golfer value. On a newer course (ie- Lighthouse Sound, Bayside) you can expect to pay 4-5 times as much for an equally enjoyable round of golf with breathtaking vistas. The only negative I have is that there are really no hole layouts (also no GPS) to give you an idea of how to approach the hole and avoid trouble, many times which cannot be seen. That would help any player who does not familiarity with Newport Bay. Don't miss Newport Bay on your next golfing opportunity in Ocean City!
Great round
Beautiful course and challenging. Flys were terrible when near the marshy areas, but thoroughly enjoyed the round.
great for the price
the course was in good shape and the sun was shinning
Enjoyable round
Paired up with part with a larger group. Corse was in good shape for this time of year.. Ranger had to push group ahead of us a couple of times. ,
Course is challenging but well worth the golf
This course was very nice, challenging if your a beginner. Definitely recommend this course to others. However, they need water coolers on more holes as well as maps of the holes. But using golfnow made this easy and the "hot deal" was fantastic. Would golf again! Won't be disappointed.
Average at best
The course is called Seaside but it doesn't really offer much of a seaside feel or view. The course is tree lined most of the way but is wide enough for driver. If this is a vacation trip to Ocean City there are many courses that are better. If you are a local or a twosome out for a relaxing 18 go for it but pay attention to the price. It is worth paying almost double for the top course. If you can find for under $40 go for it but it will not be that memorable of a day. I have played over 100 courses and keep ratings at home. This was not one of the best nor was it one of the worst. I enjoyed River Run more and it is about the same price.
Nice Course Great Deal thru Golf Now
Great Course, Staff was extremely Friendly. The Premier Course Newport bay had been Aerated last week, offered us that course at the same rate because the other 18 (seaside) was jammed. Greens were in great shape especially considering that they were aerated a week before.
If I had to be critical there about 4 holes where the mosquitos and horse flies were unbearable. I recommend bug spray.
Great Overall Experience.
First Time Player
The course was in very good condition and the layout, though somewhat open, offered sufficient challenge to most player levels. I played the Newport Bay course and it was very scenic with several holes featuring water and marsh views. Some wind on the water-oriented holes. Smallish greens with some topography. Moderate rough and some trees that restrict green access for those not familiar with the dogleg holes. Beware! I traveled from the Bethany Beach area in the AM and it took close to an hour to get there. Overall I thought it was worth the trip and I will be back.
poor service when scheduled with GolfNow
This is the 3rd time that happened to me (three diferent courses). When they realize that I have booked trough GolfNow, the service go down, they treat you as a welfare recepient. They told me that they don't make any money when I use GolfNow.
beautiful course
A must play course. Have played this course 4 times and have never been disappointed
Course is an excellent value
The conditions were first class, the entire staff were very helpful and friendly. The pace of play was good and we experianced no waiting the entire round.
Great conditions
Great value price from golf now. Course in excellent condition. Fun layout with lots of scenic holes along the bay.
extremely well laid out no cookie cutter course
Very nice course with a great layout. Nice views with the twists and turns of a course you dont play everyday.Great value with the Golfnow discount. Would recommend the course to anyone in the area. We drove 1 1/2 hrs to get there and it was stile worth it
