Oak Hollow Golf Course
About
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.

Consistent playing conditions
The greens and fairways are always in good condition. However, the rough lining the fairways and around the greens has been way too deep this summer. You could hit a ball ten yards and lose it. Other than needing to mow the rough lower, this course is consistently in good condition. The greens have been exceptionally good this year.
Weekends could use some improvement.
The course is a good deal for the money...during the week. The layout is nice, there are some challenging holes and some easy ones which is a good mix. Number 8 is always going to be hard. The greens are in decent condition based on pin placement. The rough can be thick and punishing on holes which aren't hard panned which is a good defense for this course. A wild slice or snap hook likely means a lost ball due to the thickness, again, a good defense for the course.
The pace of play on the weekends is awful and is not enforced by marshals, however several are staffed. First off, they don't allow any singles but they sell them on golf now. I can understand the starter's policy, but within reason. I sat for 50 minutes past my tee time waiting for a pairing while the #1 laid EMPTY for three tee time slots. One would think that make for a nice pace once we finally tee'd off, no. By the third hole we were already waiting. Silly waiting at that, ball hunting, no ready golf, etc. This is a local muni, not the tour ;).
The marshals need to be enforcing pace of play and forcing on course pairings (back to back twosomes need to play together if they're bumping into each other). I'm yet to see a marshal talk to a group about speeding up, that is if you see one. Two different occasions now I've had a paired single take off to an "open hole" because of the wait, which only makes things worse later on.
Hello, boneall. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Worthy Challenge
Good course that will surprise you. Moderate difficulty except for 3 holes that will make you think and invent new cuss words. Great value. Course conditions are much better than a city municipal course but not as taylored as a club. Great daily home course option but not worth traveling out of state to see it.

So much Potential
This course could be gorgeous but instead it is more like a cow pasture. Maintenance is terrible. Half of the sprinkler system doesn't work and what does leaks terrible making certain areas swamps, they water infrequently with the hose. No one enforces the rules so everyone drives all over the course. You never know what a round will cost you. It seems everyone just charges what they think. The mowers frequently leak oil on the greens. the range ball picker is broken down 25% of the time. The bunkers are as hard as rocks with no real sand in them.

Fun Round w/ Teen Sons
Great fun! The entire staff was very friendly & accommodating: starter, pro shop attendant, cafe manager, cart girl, Marshall, & cart barn attendant - All very impressive. The course was in good shape - Fairways were nice & lush, & greens rolled well. Pace was a little slow, but expected on a beautiful Saturday morning. My boys said the BLT & cheeseburger w/ fries were some of the best they’ve ever had. My teenage boys also asked if we could play here again next week! I’d say that’s a high recommendation!

Slow pace and bumpy greens.
Was behind a group of 5 plus a toddler. Very slow and the toddler was running all around snd on the greens. Greens were recently aerated and were bumpy. Fairways were in decent shape and the staff were professional, courteous, and friendly.

Could be so much better!!!
The course could be so much better under good management. The equipment frequently breaks down with the mower damaging greens or leaving a trail of oil. Frequently the fairways are closed to carts because of a sprinkle or very light shower. None of the rules are enforced consistently with many players breaking any rule they wish with few consequences. The sprinkler system is garbage. Frequently sprinklers run all night and soak the fairways. There are numerous spots where sprinkler leaks keep the ground saturated all of the time. No one fixes anything.

Friendly place to play
Generally a nice, flat layout. Some really challenging holes (especially #8). It's a friendly, low-key atmosphere close to Big D. Course is kept in good shape, even with the North Texas Summer weather. Staff is helpful, friendly and competent.

Oak Hollow Review
The front 9 holes are my favorite on this course, with the 7th and 8th being a bit more challenging.
Course is usually in good condition, staff is very friendly, especially after you have been a few times.
The driving range seems to be out of commission more than normal. Some due to weather, but other times due to mechanical difficulties with the ball collection, etc.

I live this course
Greens are excellent course is wonderfully maintained. But is sad to lose balls in the first cut of fairways. But great to hit out of the first cut.
