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.

Ocean City Newport
This course was in great shape after a wet winter. This is one of my favorite courses in the lower shore and really look forward to playing. I played with a large group and play was okay, not quick but not slow. Tine wise it was just short of 4.5 hours.
Fog day
Everything was great the course the people weather could've been better.
Such a deal
I was pleasantly surprised by OCGC. The Newport Bay layout is very scenic and has some very challenging holes. The course was in generally good shape, although the fairways were still dormant and were light brown, instead of green (although they played fine.) I was skeptical because of the low price but our overall experience was fine and we'll definitely be back again.
Course has very scenic vistas!
Very scenic course & a great value for Ocean City area courses. Course was very crowded, but they got us off on time & played in under 4 hours on a Sunday. Beautiful views of the bay & enjoyed the layout.
Great round
I have only been playing since 2013 and have played this course one time before, the course is in very good shape for the time of year greens are in great shape as well. I shot my best score with the temperature of 41 degrees and Cary path only with course soaking wet 78 . Look out , if I can do it under these conditions how low will I go in great weather. Great layout great people . Come enjoy the course.

Great course
Always enjoy the staff friendliness and great atmosphere. A country club feel with great conditions. Can’t find the views of surrounding waters unless you’re in Myrtle Beach. Always on my list to play.
Threat day for golf
Played in the twosome my partner was late due to an accident on route 50 they held the teatime for a half hour very accommodating and very friendly staff nothing but good things to say about the entire place!!! Great course nice layout conditions were excellent the day was low 80s no humidity Golf could not have been better.
Worth the price
Greens were excellent, fairways haven’t turned but still easy to play from. Lot of fun, better than previous course conditions. Hope it stays that way.
Ocean City Golf Club Newport Bay
I read up on the Ocean City Golf Club Newport Bay course and knew that I wanted to play this course while I was in Ocean City. Unfortunately the Bermuda grass had not rebounded yet so it was golf cart path only. That was the only downside the rest of the course was in great shape and the greens Roald nicely. Recommend this course to everyone.
Excellent layout
Great views. A fair test. Many risk/reward shots. Friendly staff
Nice course
Course was in great shape, considering recent rain. The greens were perfect.
Challenging course with beautiful scenery
Played this course twice on our foursome golf trip. Very surprised at the excellent layout, condition of the greens and scenery as compared to the Seaside course. We had a great time and will put it on the list for next year!
Average Front 9, Back 9 worth a play
Nothing special about the front nine at Newport Bay, your average run of the mill course. The back nine takes much better advantage of the surroundings, providing nice views and an interesting layout. Several holes where the marsh and water come into play, making for some more interesting shots as opposed to the front nine. Staff was friendly but did not go the extra mile to make the experience complete. Bag drop team seemed a bit scattered, no club cleaning at the finish. Kitchen was closed at 4pm. Worth a play if you're local. Will try another course next time down there though.
Enjoyable course
Lots of fun. The course is challenging but rewads good shots. For the time of year, it was in very good condition. I'd gladly play here again.
Good on a windy Sunday morning
The course is in good condition, as a beginning player I found it reasonably challenging. They need to improve the signage for the holes and directions to the next tee.
Fantastic
Yes se play car path but thé course was vert good shape ans a fabulous l'atout. I appréciateur m'y journée.
Great Round
Course was in prime condition due to a Pro/AM going on the prior two days. Regardless the course was healthy and clean and I play this course at least twice a month. And would say it’s in top 5 due to afordability.
Gorgeous course in very good condition, with very hospitable staff. I would highly recommend it to others!
