Newport Bay at Ocean City Golf & Yacht Club occupies gently rolling terrain in Berlin, Maryland, a few miles inland from the Atlantic coast resort of Ocean City. Designed by Lester George, the course reflects the architect's approach to creating playable layouts that incorporate the natural topography and vegetation of the mid-Atlantic coastal plain. The routing takes advantage of modest elevation changes and integrates water features and wetlands that are characteristic of this low-lying region near the Chesapeake Bay watershed. The course serves a membership that includes both year-round residents and seasonal visitors drawn to the Ocean City area. The layout balances accessibility for recreational play with enough strategic interest to reward better players, a common design philosophy for courses serving resort-adjacent communities. Fairways are typically framed by stands of pine and hardwood, and several holes incorporate marshland edges that require accurate shot placement. Ocean City Golf & Yacht Club provides amenities beyond golf, including yacht club facilities that reflect the area's maritime culture. The club caters to families and golfers who appreciate a relaxed coastal atmosphere without the formality of more traditional private clubs. Dining and social spaces overlook the course and waterways, reinforcing the connection between golf and the broader recreational lifestyle of Maryland's Eastern Shore.
