Oak Marsh is a Pete Dye-designed golf course that is one of three 18-hole courses at Omni Amelia Island Resort. The Oak Marsh course meanders alongside the Atlantic Ocean, providing sweeping views and an ever-changing sea breeze.

Appropriately named after its terrain of scenic salt marshes and moss-draped heritage oaks, the golf course has a stunning landscape that is ideal for a challenging round. Dye protected the natural beauty of the island by carefully maintaining the tidal marshes, oceanfront dunes, grassland, and savannahs. The layout features tight fairways and small, bulk-headed greens, a classic Dye element. There are a variety of bunkers strategically placed throughout and water comes into play on fourteen holes.

Fantastic course

The course was one of the best I played in Florida during my 5 weeks holiday. I love Peter Dye desing and how the nature is not cleaned too much. The fairways and greens condition were perfect. The course was not too difficult from blue and my wife red, but the wind made it more challenging. Wonderful day.

Friendly Staff and Not a long Course

Not the longest golf course. Elevated greens. Very friendly staff and helpful. You must play the 16th hole from the back tee. The view from back there is awesome. Someone said that the fairways were tight but I didn’t think so. Not much water on the course which was good for this high handicapper.

If you want to hit the big dog then play the back tees otherwise you’re hitting irons off the tee. We got around fairly quickly until we ran into a group of five golfers. They backed up several groups starting around the 13th hole. Not cool. Otherwise the wife and I had a good time. The weather was great that day.

Oak Marsh @ Omni Amelia Island Resort

Oak Marsh is a scenic resort course that weaves through the marshes of Amelia Island. Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Very few players on the course this day so pace of play was excellent.
At first glance the fairways seem really tight but the landing areas open up for curving drives.
The greens are slightly elevated and mostly small.
I was surprised the course was not in better shape. The fairways were scraggly and thin in many areas, maybe caused by the freezing weather in December.
The greens roll ok but the collars have a lot of bermuda grass encroachment.
This is an expensive course. There are better at lower price.
In my opinion this course is past its prime and is due for a makeover.

Great course, difficult to score

Love the course but it played too difficult. Greens ultra fast, but no grain.. chipping was a difficult chore. All pins were 5 to six feet from a sand trap and on the edge of a mogul.. but,it is a beautiful layout and in fantastic condition. Players need to be single didget handicapper in order to score.

Not worth the money.

The locals must already know because only players on the course were starters playing for free.
