Est. 1987 · Pete Dye (with Chris Lutzke)
Why we love this place
We love a course that treats the land as the star. Old Marsh feels like a walk through a living preserve, Pete Dye at his most restrained and thoughtful. Firm, fair, and gloriously quiet, with caddies who know every ripple in the marsh. This is golf as stewardship.

About Old Marsh Golf Club
Old Marsh Golf Club opened in 1987 on a roughly 440-acre parcel of marshland and grassland between Jupiter and North Palm Beach. Pete Dye, working with Chris Lutzke, routed the holes as a string of relatively isolated corridors threading through preserved wetlands, and he later called it a candidate for his finest design. Securing the wetland setbacks and permits took years, and the resulting layout is deliberately lower-profile than many of Dye's flashier 1980s courses so as not to disturb the surrounding sanctuary. The club is known for its environmental stewardship, its caddie program, and a traditional no-tee-times ethos. The course stretches past 7,000 yards. In 2016 the Dye family carried out a careful renovation, including new TifEagle greens, while leaving the natural ecosystem intact.
