Inconvenient Green roll

4hrs.30min over all walk to play. Pace is good.. fairways are in great shape. Bankers are enough sand to get out the ball. Greens are in slow roll side and most green has stone chips on surface, which mean couldn't get true roll, it totally change the direction without slope angle. Would play again definitely

Course in good shape. Greens still a little bumpy from aeration.

A course going down hill

The course, layout, staff and club house are great. The course is in disappointing shape. The rough was very short, didn't look like it was growing in at mid-May, tee boxes were beat up, numerous stones/rocks in sandtraps. Always loved the course, but has not been properly cared for.

Great course for a great price

Course is recovering from maintenance like many other courses but at least they charge a fair price. Fun layout and in a month when the greens and tee boxes recover from aeration it’ll be a gem. Will be back

Beautiful setting and layout

It has been 5 years since I last played Mercer Oaks East. The setting and layout of the course is sensational . You feel like you are far away from civilization in a beautiful place with nature abundant. The course was a bit mushy, the fairways didn't provide much roll and the greens were quite slow on this day. The traps are huge and were like cement with hard packed sand.

We had a great day and the weather was perfect. The facility as a whole is very nice. I know that the course conditions will be better on a future visit but it certainly did not impact a great day!
