Rating 71.6

After 50 years, the old 9-hole McKinney Municipal Golf Course shut down to make room for the new 18-hole championship layout now known as Oak Hollow. This new layout, designed by Maury Miller, opened in 1998, featuring rolling terrain that routes around six manmade lakes.

Miller’s design is particularly friendly from the middle tees, playing a fair 6,277 yards with several short par 3s and many average-length par 5s. The number one handicap is No. 15, a 423-yard par 4.

Getting there : Take Hwy. 75 north to Hwy. 380, then head east to Hwy. 5 (McDonald St.). The road veers and leads you 1 mile to the course.

Very nice course

I play only once or twice per year but this course has what I consider one of the best and most difficult par 4's anywhere, no 8. Simply a beautiful hole. I found today that it's easier to par this hole by hitting your drive over the canyon into the 16th fairway if you can clear the trees, then hit up towards the 16th green, wedge from 50-60 yards back over to the proper green and one putt like I did today!

Little Gem

This place is a little gem tucked in Mckinney. Great place for practice rounds and to have an all around great time. The staff is amazing and friendly, the starters are polite and keep everything on track. Greens are great and the course plays nice.

Oak Hollow used to be a good Course

I feel its gone bad over last 12 months mainly due to lack of maintenance. Grass is gone from certain areas and the fairway looks like is on God's mercy!!

I wanna like this course

First and foremost, I liked the layout and it is a challenging course. Now for the bad, they were watering almost every tee box I went to. I asked the marshal why they were watering during peak hours and got a shoulder shrug and “it’s run by the city, we don’t control it.” The 2nd cut was mid shin high like they didn’t cut it not really like they meant it to be that high. Pace of play was definitely an issue I waited at one time 20 minutes to play a par 3. Overall the course want bad but, 40 bucks to drive 50 miles and play “hit the ball before the sprinkler comes” screw that. I may not be back.

For the money yes

Played here for the first time a month ago and the course didn’t drain well at all, the greens were thick and the tee boxes were bad. Well the tee boxes are still Bad but the rest of the course is really great for the money. the greens roll really great, the fairways get nice roll and overall it was an enjoyable experience will definitely be back to play again. The cart girl is the prettiest cart girl I’ve seen at any courses I’ve played. Lol

Good Value & Surprisingly well-maintained

For the Texas heat the staff has done a really good job keeping the course in good condition. The greens have obviously been worked hard by the crew, as they started out the summer in rough shape..

Would recommend the starters put smaller groups together, as there seems to be too many singles and doubles mixed between larger groups which slows play.. Marshalls could keep pace of play moving better from holes 3-5, as groups often have 1 or 2 players searching too long for balls in the tree-line areas.

Need beverage carts running earlier than noon and water stations filled in morning during in heat of summer.

Grounds crew staff are very attentive and courteous to players when they're working the course.

A real review

For the money no one has the right to complain about this track. It's everything you should expect for 40 bucks. I only played this course because my wife went out with a girl friend and I was out of town so why not. Rough is full of weeds, fairways were ok, a few spots where they were either not draining well and were wet or super hard pan but decent over all. A majority of the greens were a mess. They did place the pins in places where I felt like they were avoiding the damage to be fair. Greens did roll pretty nice, slow for my liking but doable tee boxes were like concrete. Needed a hammer on most to get a tee in the ground so it took some searching for softer ground. Layout was fun, had a little of everything. The worst part was pace of play. But this course is attractive to a golfer that is a weekend hack based on the price. I shot a 75 which wasn't terrible but could've shot lower if I didn't wait so long between shots. I won't be back but will say it's a good get out with the boys course.

Poor… just poor

This was a very poor experience. I paid for 18 and only played nine. The reason was it took almost 3 hours to play 9 holes at noon! And the pace got worse. 30 minutes fron tee off on 8 to tee of on 9. All 4 in our group got para on 8 so we were t slow. It was terrible. No marshal in sight to push pace. The beverage cart came by once by hole 7. The tee boxes were so hard and dry you couldn’t get a tee in the ground. A couple greens had large dead patches in the greens. I will never! Never! Come back. Place is a giant ball of disappointment

Pressure passed of play

It was our first time in this course and let me say the staff is great. The Marshall is really helpful and understanding we saw him multiple times. We accidentally went over the green in our cart while looking for a ball we were so fixated on the ball that didn’t see where we were driving and which cause the guys behind us to cuss us out and acted like fools. Marshall was really cool about it while still upholding the rules and what not.

There’s no cart girl and it being 102 we were definitely looking forward to beers and water while out there. The kitchen was closed there’s that.

The fairways and tees were pretty beat up.

The worst thing really was the overcrowding of the front 9, we had a single guy in front of us and he had a group of 4 in front of him. It just made us be on our toes the whole time. Back 9 were much better paced as lots of people left as it got hot. Overall we will come back due to proximity and staff but definitely needs work on spacing times out and giving time for bigger groups.
