Most underrated course in area

Beautiful links style layout. Great shape, fun course to play. Definitely a hidden gem in the central NJ/Philly area if it’s at the right price.

Challenging day in the wind

The course is built like a links course without an ocean. 16 holes have no trees to break the wind. A full-length modern course.

Played on Easter Sunday where it was 50-60 degrees and very windy.

The course was in good shape for this time of year. The preceding players decided not to rake the bunkers that day.

Teed off at 9:45 am and walked off the 18th green at 12:45.

This is a solid public course. top 10% of all municipal courses.

Always a great experience at Mercer Oaks East. I was lucky to get the tee time and get it on a hot deal. Course was in good shape. Will come back and will recommend to others. Wish it was easier to get a tee time at this course more often

MERCER OAKS EAST

Beautiful day and other than occasional lousy shots it was a fun day. Just started playing again after a 10 year layoff. Went as a solo and met two really good guys,, everyone played ready golf and we finished in 3:45 or so. Enjoyed the company and had forgotten the east course is allot of fun to play. We played from the blues and it was good day. Only issue was whoever set the pin placements must have been angry at something, lol. The beverage cart came by often and club house and inside bar are great. excellent choice if you get the chance.
