Mercer Oak West

Late afternoon tee time. Staff always helpful and friendly. Course in great condition. Pace of play was good. The closing holes are very fun and the setting sun gave it an enjoyable perspective.

Good Value, Fair Conditions

First time playing after hearing many good things about MOW. Course layout was very good and visually excellent. Unfortunately, possibly due to the extreme summer heat and rain the greens were less than ideal. i would definitely play again hopefully to experience better greens. Biggest complaint is the rough has way too much overgrown Crabgrass and Clover.

Nice Layout/Good Weekday Value

The west course has a nice layout and was in very good shape. The mid-afternoon round was a good value and the pace of play was great (3.5 hours).

Disappointed

Played here growing up and was home visiting my family, was very let down by the management. Starting did not enforce actual start times and so the course got bunched up very quickly. Was waiting for the people ahead of us for every shot after I teed off.

By the 5th hole (par 3) there was 2 groups waiting at the tee box. After taking 1:15 to play the first 4 holes I just drove back to the clubhouse. There was 2 holes completely open, and no marshals to enforce pace of play. Really disappointed with coming back.

Excellent course

There are 2 courses at Mercer Oaks. There is the East course which is a links course that I had played twice before and also is an excellent course. The West course is a parkland style. Most of the holes are defined by moguls on the sides like a links course or trees to separate each hole. The par 5's are long. There is no drinking water on either course but, the cart girl does come around frequently. Fairways and greens were in perfect condition. Some of the bunkers were like concrete but, to be fair the course had gotten a lot of heavy rain. I would recommend both courses they are in great shape. The 19 th hole is very good also. There is a putting green and a driving range to warm up on. One item that golf now members should be aware of is the price on golf now is for walking only. You can take a cart but, they will charge you $17.00 more. That's not a problem they're used to that at the pro shop. Very friendly staff, I would recommend this course.

It was hot

We basically had the course to ourselves based on the 100+ heat. The Cart Girl ended up being a lifesaver. Everything was in great shape which is pretty standard for the 2 Mercer Oaks courses.

Staff behave

I booked tee time through golf now hot deal paid $32 in advance, when I get to clubhouse, he said this is the working one so I should pay $17 extra for each player. We did pay $17 so total of $49 each player and we started to Play. At 2nd hole the person who played behind us wanted to play through we said no, because there were 4sum front of us we were waiting for them to be cleared. few minutes later. Marshal came to us he stopped us from playing without any excuse Any explanation and have the player behind us play through the hole(white guy , the marshal also white guy and we are oriental) we felt our rights had been violated , and it made us feel bad.
