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.

Do not play now

This course is being shut down in February and it's being cared for as such. It'll be glorious when it opens again, but for now DO NOT PlAY here. For $35 maybe. For $70, it's criminal.

Decent for current pricing

Course is closing Mar-Oct 2024 and they’ve started work. All rough is killed so it is just dead grass around the tees/fairways/greens. Greens were over seeded as well so were super slow and made it a bit difficult to get a feel for putts. If you’re looking for a decent round of golf and aren’t taking the game too seriously then this could work, but don’t expect a beautiful resort course right now, it is simply not there.

Fantastic resort course. Helpful and friendly employees.

Fantastic Pete Dye Florida course. Not too terribly long but still has a bit of teeth if you’re not straight off the tee. A classic resort round, the staff took was professional enough to take fantastic care of mine for me the minute I arrived. Thankful for Alan, Chandler, and Greg, who are all some of the finest resort golf employees I have had the pleasure of meeting. So helpful getting me situated and providing insights to the round as well as the island as a whole. If you’re on vacation, Oak Marsh should be your stop if you’re on vacation at Amelia island, and a given if you’re staying at the Omni.

Greens recovering - super track!

Starter was nice and a great help - let me go out early! Great value for $50 morning tee time!! Don't expect to make any putts longer than 7 feet, aeration still a little bumpy. Bunkers need to be raked out too. Course is so nice overall though - I'll be back for sure.

Nice Florida Layout

I'd known of this course for years and had never made it up that way when in Jax. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and there is a very nice pro shop. Also, complimentary range balls. The course is extremely fair and, in my view, very straightforward for a Pete Dye course. The bunkers were very well maintained and the greens, while a little bumpy, rolled quite well and we made several putts. No real issues. Kind of an nice, older, Florida sand and water course with some nice views of the marshes. Definitely recommend.

Overall the course was everything you expected from a Pete Dye course. Bunkers, greens and fairways in great shape. Very scenic holes from the back tees.

Not Worth the Price of Admission!!!

Starter said speed improvement on the greens from 2022, still slow and considerably grainy. Cannot post USGA GHIN HNCP because someone forgot to pay the USGA fee, according to the Assistant Gol Pro !! And they want $115 to play the course, ridiculous!!!
Better value around Amelia Island!!!!
