It shouldn’t take 4.5 hours

I’ve played this course many times and always am impressed by the layout and condition. However the people in front of were beyond slow as they had over a full hole gap in front of them. Really could have used a marshal at some point.

Conditions have been better

There was confusion with the Starter regarding our start time. The tee boxes were not mown and the greens were very slow. Pace of play was slow, we had a foursome walking, playing from the wrong tees IMHO with no player assistant to move things along.

Nice course, longer than most causing more use of fairway woods and hybrids.

A course you must be in the fairway and be super accurate.

Awesome...considering the time of year.

I really like MO-East. The staff is friendly and helpful. The pace of play is excellent, just under a 4-hour round on a Sunday! I have two gripes: 1) The greens have not yet recovered from the aeration (I know it is early, but they were almost unplayable); 2) The bunkers were mostly in good condition, however, very few had even one rake.

Great Mercer County Course

My group played on Saturday 4/22. Pace of Play was slow but it was the weekend. Course was a lot of fun. Conditions were great for spring. Clubhouse food was average but decent. Prices were good.

Pace of play for afternoon tee time

Played at 3pm tee time at Mercer Oaks East on Sun. The pace of play was so slow that we needed to finish after 9th hole. If you play on weekend afternoon, be aware. Generally there is no ranger to maintain the pace of play.

Perfect day

Late twilight walking, wasn't sure I'd finish 18, but pace was quick and we finished at sunset. This course plays well to my high fade from the tee. I hit some of my best shots so far this season and scored well. I will definitely be back.
