Good condition, nice greens

Walked in 3:35 & waited a bit but as twosome behind four balls so understandable. Started on time but Starter didn't say a word.

Top Notch East Course

Having played this course many times since it opened in the 90's, and also having moved to Raleigh, NC and experienced entirely different course layouts, turf and fast greens, I was pleasantly surprised at many of the improvements and course conditions.

Well kept course but….

Great course but it was like a rock concert, seemed like every cart had a speaker, very distracting.

Golf was great. Staff was great. We finished at 6 pm and the kitchen was closed. Seen a great menu. Would have been nice to have it open until the golfers finish

Plugged fairways

Many of the fairways were recently plugged / aerated. The few that were not were excellent .

Pace of play was a bit slow

Alway the same

That’s a good thing as there is rarely anything to complain about. Course is seemingly always in good shape

A boast for The Oaks

Oaks East In fantastic shape after the soaking rains it received in early Summer putting everything lush and green, which is always tough to get that mid summer around here. Greens not lightning fast, but not too slow and the rolls are true, plus well hit approaches don’t roll off every back which is all you can ask for. Best public course in Central Jersey, in my opinion.

Slow play.

I walked the east course. Played with another gentlemen that was very nice who had a cart. Had a foursome in front of us with carts. Waited on every hole with every shot. 5 hour round. Started at 1:30 and didn't see cart girl until 3.5 hours into round. Does she cover both east and west? Not sure. But 90 plus degrees out. No water to drink on course. I was dying. If it wasn't for Bob, the nice gentlemen I played with, I would have left after 9 holes. Course in great shape though. Knuckleheads need to fix ball marks on greens. Tons of them.

Gorgeous

What a gorgeous course. Beautiful plush fairways and very well kept. And amenities are nice, putting green, driving range, grill room .

I would put it right up there (if not a wee bit better) than some of the other local courses like Hominy Hill, knob hill, and Charleston Slrings.
