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.

Oak Hollow

Thank you to Oak Hollow for remaining open during this time. Upon arriving I was told that the carts are sanitized before every round and that it's 1 person per cart. I can not give the staff enough credit! Everyone I spoke with was extremely friendly and more than willing to discuss new protocols for keeping you and the staff safe.

With that being said, the course is currently in rough shape. The greens are very bumpy and have a bunch of brown spots. I'm not sure if they are re-sanding the bunkers on, I believe #17 or removing them. It was hard to tell the difference between fairway and rough, due to dormant/dead grass on fairways. Now with that being said, I saw Greens and Grounds staff all over the course, so they are working on the issues. Im sure of two things, one I will play Oak Hollow again in a few months. Two, the course will be in much better shape.

Very Family and Fivesome Friendly

This course is very family friendly. Even if one of your family doesn't have clubs or if your family/group has five players. No problem on this course. Pace of play is not a consideration.

My friends and I have played this course seven times in the last ten weeks so this is a review based on experience. We generally play twice a week and have a number of courses that are in our rotation. Oak Hollow is our course of last resort.

The staff is friendly but the communication between the clubhouse and starter is not good.

My biggest issue is and will always be the play of their greens. I find this course fun and challenging. You will have a hard time finding a better value as it is very inexpensive. I will be back for sure.

Great Shape for this time of year

Played Here for the first time in months. I was very impressed on the course conditions. Greens was in pretty good shape and rolled true. Tee boxes were taken care of as well.. Hats off to the staff, that’s what made this round worth coming back, from the clubhouse, starter, the Marshall and of course the cart girl!!! Great Weekend at Oak Hollow!!!

So much potential

The sprinkler system has been broken for years and no one will pony up and fix it, so some holes get very dry in the summer and the grass disappears. There are numerous leaks in the irrigation system too, so some places never dry up.

The course has a ton of potential and they have only started taking slightly better care of it by trimming a few trees. It could be a showpiece but the contract with the city is written in such a way it is more profitable to the contract holder not fix up the course.

This course has a very unique layout.

The course has experienced heavy rains recently which caused wash outs on the fairways , rough and greens. The conditions were challenging but such is anticipated with "winter golf". The rain effect made the course even more of a challenge and greens were bumpy due to dishing of the top dressing. The course is usually in good condition during the normal months and a fun course to play. I would recommend the course to anyone who wants an enjoyable experience that will test your golfing skills.

Great value

Hard to beat the price and the course was in decent shape considering the time of year. Good mix of easy and difficult holes. Power lines are a bit annoying but not that big of a deal.

I was very disappointed with the lack of customer service.

I followed the rules while waiting 35 minutes for a golf cart. The starter allowed golfers that were checked in after me to grab carts, while I simply was overlooked. I noticed several golfers left because the starter was disorganized and only focused on pairing golfers. I spoke with the manager and I was promised the next cart.

After waiting 35 minutes for a cart, I was told that I had to ride with another golfer. I was told by the starter, that I either share a cart or I don’t play on the golf course. I noticed several groups behind me that were not mandated to share golf carts or not play. I guess the rule was only for me.

The staff was rude, disorganized and impolite. I play golf several times a week and this was my worse golf experience since moving to Dallas last year.

High Rough Around Greens

The rough around the greens in various areas needs to be mowed even though the grass is dead. It is difficult to find balls in the deep grass. Otherwise, the course is in good winter condition. The greens are especially fast, but well groomed. The course is fun to play. Some holes are especially challenging.
