Always Great
Course is in great shape. Greens rolling nice. Not fast enough but great condition.
Pretty couse
The couse is attractive and well maintained. It's challenging fun to play
A Mercer County Gem
Mercer Oaks, is a fun golf course that offers two challenging courses with also a great practice area. The fairways were decent length if you play from the white. Some fairways are in need some caring for. The greens were average pace to a slower roll. Overall this a great course that plays well and is one of the better golf course in this area for the price as well.
Good Time
Course in great condition. Fair, yet challenging. Though difficult to see all trouble off the tee if you've never played
It before.
Played from white tees - 6400 - since blue tees are 6800.
Good course
Link style course. Even the west one is good. One of the best courses in NJ. GREENS are slower than you think. Lot of bunkers and avoid them
Great Course
The only problem we had was we went at 4:00pm and I didn't see when I made the Tee time that this golf course only gives you the cart for nine holes. We had to pay an extra $18 for the back nine. Make sure you look at their whole request before you reserve it. It was in small print at the top. I have made Tee times on this site before and I never had that happen to me before. It looks like you are getting a deal but you are really not because you have to put out another $18.
Excellent Conditions
The east course is in excellent condition. The tees, greens, fairways, rough, and bunkers were all flawless.
Above average course provided below average experience.
The facilities at Mercer Oaks appears new, the staff were not the most friendly, they don't try to hide it either. We were paired with two other players without prior notice, while the course was wide open. The rate we were able to get from golf now I supposed was their discounted rate, given the discounted conditions we experienced. Inconsistent speed of greens, they were not rolled or cut after a recent rain it appears. Overall the course has great potential for a semi challenging experience, however due to the overall condition of the course, the challenge was presented in the form of bad greens keeping. I will hesitant to recommend others for this course despite the stellar rating it has received among other top NJ courses.
This course is very challenging
Everything was good from the staff to the shape of the course. The only glitch was my tee time was 4:45 and included a cart but was told when I signed in that I had to turn the cart in at the turn and trade it for a pull cart. The gentlemen behind the counter was very apologetic for the inconvience, but it was no big deal. The shape of the course made up for it.
Definitely worth a try
Played the West Course. Relatively flat track with thick rough. Greens were consistently slow (poa annua). White tees are appropriate for intermediate golfers; two additional sets of tees for longer hitters.
Nice day
We had a rainy misty morning so the fairways and greens were not cut still I enjoyed the day and the course was in good shape.
Mercer Oaks West
Course was in an excellent conditions. form the back tees was a challenge.
Ok if u live in the area, not worth the ride if u dont
It's ok nothing exciting about it, had some nice holes on west course, but really wasn't worth the trip, if u live within a half hour ride I guess it's good value for the money, but I wouldn't go out of my way to play here again, pace was very slow a lot of old-timers...,walking the course.
Nice layout with challenging greens
Great course and I was paired with a local resident who was so kind giving advice to avoid blid hazards.
windy and cool
The course was in good condition and great shape for the winter season. The wind was about 40 mph but still had a great time.
Where's the fescue?
For the price I paid through golfnow, I wouldn't mind paying regular rates that's how much I enjoyed this course.
First off, Mercer Oaks is split into two sections. East course with its links style layout with only hole that had trees surrounding the short par 4. Other than that, it's challenging with its risk and reward situations and it's undulating fairways littered with bunkers. The West course I read was the traditional layout with lots of memorable holes. Today I played the East course.
From my experience playing a local links course near me. One thing distinct is their tall fescue. Somebody must've went weed wackier crazy because not one hole has any. It's either their way to prepare for the winter, but I would've liked to see what this course was all about. Other than that, this made it much easier to find my ball so no complaints their.
Due to rain from the night before, the course was is very wet condition that made it difficult to get your footing on the ground for a shot. So slipping was common. Greens were in excellent shape with little or no pitch marks. Also, the ball rolled true on their greens with the rain. Tee boxes were also even and for a minute I thought I was playing in a country club.
I would definitely play this course again, but this time will play the West course. Also, I think I found my go to course if the price is right.
beautiful scenic course
Excellent very scenic golf course which I like personally. Not too difficult but very enjoyable. Only played nine holes cause of a back issue. Drove the cart around the back nine to have a look and I really liked what I saw
Beautiful
Beautiful course. Can't wait to play it again. Perfectly green and smooth, and they do a great job of clearing the leaves in the fall.
great eye appeal
beautiful links course.. a real gem, well maintained.
