Ranked Top 5 in state by Golf Week
Rum Pointe Seaside Golf Links has become Ocean City's "must play" new
course and one of Maryland's premier golf venues. This spectacular
seaside design by the world-renowned father/son team of Pete & P.B.
Dye opened in the spring of 1997. Located on Highway 611 on the
Sinepuxent Bay overlooking Assateague National Seashore Park, Mother
Nature and the Dye's have combined talents to bring world-class golf to
the Ocean City area.
This Scottish-style links is the only area course to feature bent-grass on the fairways and greens. No less than 17 of the 18 holes have a bay view with several holes having direct bay frontage, where you can start your ball over the water to shorten the hole. The Dyes have certainly created situations of risk and reward that will quicken the heart rate of even the most experienced golfer. From the back tees this championship quality course is capable of hosting a PGA Tour stop but forgiving enough from the middle tees to satisfy golfers of all skill levels.
To maintain superior course conditions, we are an alternative spike facility. Please refrain from wearing metal spikes. Thank you (Spike changing services provided at Pro Shop).

Played June 2025 as the final round of an OCMD weekend trip. Course was in phenomenal shape. It was hot and humid with little cover from the sun so bring your sunblock and bug spray (they warn you on the 1st tee). Great views of the bay pretty much everywhere. Morning round actually played pretty quick, under four hours (for our threesome). Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Beautiful course but pace of play pathetic. Rolled up to 9th tee box with 2 groups already waiting. Got to 10 and called the pro shop for help. No rangers came out. When I finally saw a ranger on 15 he said many different levels of players. Don’t care how bad you may be. Move groups up if they are out of position. Beautiful course though

Great course, a must visit if you're into golf and visiting the area. Worth every penny. It's in incredible shape, and they run a well run machine there. Nice challenging holes, with howling winds from the Bay in some holes. GPS carts help dial in your strategy. Greens are in great shape, but not completely humiliating either. Just a great experience.
