Mercer Oaks Golf Course - East Course

Booked 2 tee times from GolfNow and paid $59 plus tax/fee walking. Hooked up with 2 others: 1 local and other who also booked using GolfNow but he paid only $35 with cart. How does that happen when we both booked them at similar time?

We played Mercer Oaks East (West course was closed). Great layout but the fairways, bunkers and tee boxes were totally wet (rained previous day). Greens were in good condition. Fairway was full of goose droppings. Strong wind made it very challenging to play. Otherwise, course layout is great. Hopefully will get to play the West course this year.

I played on the East course before. It is a very nice link course. Many sand traps come in play on most of the holes.

Unfortunately, the course was full of bird crap all over including on the greens!

The course looked like it has not been taken care a while. Otherwise, it is a nice course and I would love to play there again without the bird crap!

The course was great as always, the only complaint I have was that some of the ball washers were completely dry and didn't have any water in them.

This is a fun track with lots of beauty and golfing challenges. It was cold, but the sun was out making it a fun and enjoyable day. The course was in great shape and the leaves were taken care so it was easy to play and find the ball. I walked and we finished in less than four hours. Overall, a really fun golf experience.

An amazing deal...under $20 on a weekday.

Played 14 in 2 hours then from 15 on there were 4 groups waiting. Took an extra hour to play the last 4 holes.

Still good pace overall but annoying that nothing was done to move play along.

Course is in good shape and is outstanding for a muni.

One of the best public courses in the central area of NewJersey.

Was fortunate to grab a 12 PM Sunday tee time through GolfNow and really enjoyed myself. I think it was in the kind of shape you'd expect from a $100 round place, not a county course. Most of my tee shots really had me thinking about strategy; I only used the driver 4 or 5 times. A lot of multi-tiered greens make the approach shots tricky, too. My inability to figure out putting was entirely on me, the surface was in good shape. The 17th kind of messes with your head, as you leave the links style set up for one Par 4 that played longer than it looks in the woods, then 18 ends things with a nice long Par 5 into the wind.

Got through the round in under 4 hours, only waited for the group ahead of us when they were putting on 18. Group behind us maybe waited for us once or twice on a Par 3.

Beer cart only came through twice (I think she was also handling the West course) and could've used some variety. Was hoping there'd be something local in there. Prices were cheap, though ($5 for a Goose Island).

Couldn't be happier with my day. Definitely worth the price and drive down from Hoboken.

First time I’ve ever played the East and there was no wind at all. Everything about this facility is 5 star!

12 min tee times. Pace was 4:10.

Conditions were outstanding.

Starter was pleasant and helpful.

Played as 4 single golfers, great guys on a great day of golf at Mercer Oaks!

Always great conditions...each hole with a unique layout...with wide fairways. Hole 13 par 5 with water in play, hit an eagle today with Driver/3 wood/5’ putt.

Probably just because the season is winding down, but some of the fairways are chunked up from heavy play after all the rain we had. Overall good round aside from the pace.
