Type Public
Par 70
Length 6679 yards
Slope 116
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.

Great Time/Minor Inconvience

I took my son and we played 18 holes, had a great time and would recommend this course to all my friends. It wasn't too expensive and easy to schedule a tee time that was perfect for me. The only issue we had is at hole 16 our golf cart ran out of juice. It didn't take long for someone to bring anther cart, but would have rather been able to continue to play. We did notice two other golfers with the same problem. This will not keep us coming back.

Watch out thinking this is an easy public course as it used to be wide open. They allowed the roughs to grow up this year and that makes this a shot makers course but still with some "give it a rip" shots as well. Definitely like the improvements! Not expensive at all to play either!! Highly recommend to anyone!

7,8,9

This course is a great course 7,8 &9 are very challenging. The par 3's are long. Beautiful course excellently maintained. And the Hot Deal price was great. One of my favorite courses in North Texas. Price is great friendly staff from the pro shop,starters, mb marshalls and the course maintenance folks.

Slow play

There was a foursome in front of us that played really slow. They wouldn't let us play through and the Marshall wouldn't help.

More people need to understand the concept of ready golf. It would help speed up play.

Overall the course was great, nice fairways and greens.

Pace of play on the front nine was atrocious, right at 3hrs to play front 9 because of tee times being double booked as well as a group of 6 playing in front of us.!.! However the Marshall did rectify the problems once we made it to the back nine.!.! Overall nice course for the price and the staff was awesome an friendly.!.!

Great Place

I usually play Oak Hollow once a week, weather permitting. They have done a great job on the greens and the course can be challenging, especially the 8th hole.

Very friendly atmosphere a well managed overall.

Hope your day is open

This is a muni course with a pretty good layout that would be an easy walk. The problem is with the greens....they are extremely poor and terribly inconsistent from green to green. Pace of play was extremely slow....saw a Marshall but have no idea what they were doing. Certainly not doing anything to speed up play. My playing partner said they were inexperienced and did not know how to manage a course. All In all.....I will not be back

why is it always so muddy?

It seems every time i play here it is so muddy, especially hole #1. I know it has rained recently but this course doesn't seem to take water well..many holes have significant mud on prominent parts of the course...I don't think will be coming here if it has rained recently...

Nice course, challenging

Fairy wife open fairways, greens have some unexpected undulation in them which costs some strokes. All in all, enjoyed course and will play again.

Slow slow slow play

First of all staff is very friendly. The only reason I can see they get customers is the green fee. Very reasonable. Play is so very slow. I have played there twice now and I am done with them. By the time I get to the back 9 I have lost interest. They let fivesomes out and what I saw was 5 guys that cannot break a 100 which is not the problem. They cannot break a 100 and it is like watching grass grow. I saw a fivesome, behind them a single, a fivesome, and another single. I did get some good nap time between shots. If you are a good player and do not like 5 plus hour rounds dont go here. Otherwise knock yourself out.
