Oak Island Golf Club
About Oak Island Golf Club
Oak Island Golf Club dates to 1962 and was designed by architect George Cobb, with a layout that winds through Oak Island and Caswell Beach. The oceanside setting brings waterfowl, shorebirds, alligators and maritime plants and trees into view along the way.
Bermuda grass covers the greens, tees, fairways and roughs. Thirty-seven bunkers and water in play on nine holes add to the challenge, and wind is almost constantly a factor, as the wind-shaped live oaks and yaupon trees across the property suggest.
A practice area is available, including a driving range, putting green and practice bunkers.
