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.

Great course for walkers, good greens!
First time here, I was curious because I've heard the greens were in good shape and it's walker-friendly...Yes and Yes! Fairways were dormant, to be expected for this time of year, but the greens were relatively fast and rolled true! Nicely designed track, challenging enough for single-digit players, friendly enough for those weekenders and one of the better values around. And if you prefer to walk, this is definitely one to play!
Great value, Good course, Great people
My brother and I play here at least twice a month. It is a fair course but challenging as well. You can play a round on Saturday or Sunday in 4 hours or less. Awesome cart girl. Just good friendly staff. Play here once and you will be back.
Old school
This is the way courses used to be designed for the player to walk or ride. Great course to walk. Good challenge.
worth the drive
the staff is fantastic. the course was in good shape. pace was moderate due to a 70 degree day in december but everyone was respectful and enjoyed the day.
WAY TOO SLOW - COULD NOT FINISH!
The course was extremely wet from recent rains - OK no problem there - it is nature. Cart path only so of course that slows play - but then to have a tournament with each player playing 2 balls per tee is insane. It. I had a 12:18 tee time, got on at 12:45 and was on the third tee box at 1:30! Had to leave after 16 due to time.
Love this course
Always love playing this course. Today, the outside men's restroom by the clubhouse was just horrific, nastiest rest room I have ever seen and smelled.
Course is in the best shape I have ever seen it!
Steve I love that you guys have worked so hard on this public course! Greens, tee boxes and fairways are in amazing shape. I like that you let the grass grow out in the out of bounds which makes the course harder somewhat. We will be back! Friendly staff and cart girls!
Bad day of golf
Asside from the greens, the course was im terrinle shape. All of the ball washers were broken. The pace of play was very slow mainly because most fairways and some entire holes, tee to green, were no access to carts. The were no marshalls on the course and there were 4 sitting outside the clubhouse after I finished my 5 hour round. Bad experiemce
Could be better
Well designed, really good greens, lots of elevation, not so good fairways and rough. For some reason, the non-green areas are not sufficiently watered, weeded or fertilized. lies in the fairway are much tighter than intended and lies in the rough are frequently hard pan dirt. Prices have risen this year, which is absurd. A big plus is that the course is walk-able when the weather is cool.
Deplorable pace of play
I love the course layout, except for #8. The conditions are good and the staff very friendly. Pace of play is always an issue on the weekends, but this past Saturday beat any previous round. We waited for every shot at every hole and the front nine ended up taking 2 hours an forty five minutes. I gave up and went home when we got to #10 amd saw 2 groups waiting to tee off.
Nice Twilight Rate Course
The day we played there had been significant rain. Surprisingly the course had soaked up most of it. Considering how much we got the course was in great shape. Holes 5/14 are a bit confusing, however compared to a Sherrill Park, much easier to follow. Challenging layouts but not not a ton of unplayable lies. Would definitely recommend at a twilight or weekday rate.
No water
97 degrees when we played and not a water jug with any water in it and no cart girl. It was not the water filters they say were installed either. Jugs were empty!
Friendly municipal course
If you remember that Oak Hollow is a city owned municipal course, you will realize it's a fun, not too difficult course, with enough challenges for the better player to keep things interesting. Deceptively wide open in appearance, there is enough trouble to get into to keep your attention. Usually pretty well kept with reasonable greens. Staff is always friendly. For the price, it's hard to beat for the regular golfer like me. Come play and enjoy!
