Length 6679 yards

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.

Hidden Gem

I have played this course on a number of occasions and have enjoyed every round. Course is currently in very good shape, both greens and fairways. Earlier in the year the greens were a little spotty but have come back nicely.

Only criticism is hole number 8 which is the signature hole. It is beyond challenging for the beginning/ intermediate golfer and many play the hole by hitting to the neighboring fairway which can create a dangerous situation.

Overall though I consider the course one of the best values in the metroplex. Friendly staff and adequate facilities for the price.

Excellent Choice

This course is well taken care of with friendly staff always willing to help. The course is challenging and you have to manage it. Lots of blind shots and dog legs. If you stay in the fiarway you will be good. Excellent course for the very reasonable rate. I play here often and always have a good experience.

Pleasant Surprise

I hadn't been aware of this course until last week when I drove by on my way to the county courthouse. I booked the tee time on Golf Now. I arrived a little early but the course wasn't crowded and gent in the pro shop told me to fire when ready. Off the fairway it is easy to see the effects of over a month with no rainfall. The ground is very hard. The fairways and greens were in very good shape and the green speed was good. It is a nice layout and while not the most difficult course I've every played, it was a lot of fun. I saw several walkers on the course and would like to walk a round there. The staff was friendly and helpful all around the course. I will very definitely be back for another round.

Fun round for the price

A buddy and I played a twilight round, for $20 it was well worth the money. Fairways, tee boxes and greens were all in good shape. Would happily go back for another late afternoon round

Great municipal course

I joined this course for the value and the condition of the fairways and greens. Granted, they missed covering the greens on one day this past winter and the greens took a big hit. Since, then the staff have worked very hard to bring them back and I can say that now they are about back to the near great greens they were last year. I like the staff and the nice clubhouse, but mostly the course itself is a blast to play!

The greens perked up from a few weeks ago. Plugs gone and sand only spotty. Grass was coming back nicely. Good day.

need warning

after we checked in were we informed that only front 9 could be played twice since the front was plugged earlier that day, then the back 9 was in the process of being plugged. Greens were awful! Plugs were left around the skirt of the green, holes weren't filled in but LOTS of sand on the greens! Piles of sand that showed explosion when the ball landed on the green. Lotta bumps and dips along with holes on the greens made putting very frustrating. Glad we could play but would have not gone 40 miles round-trip for that experience if we had known. All other times this course has been in very good shape.

Good value / fun course

While there isn't a lot of definition to most of the holes, it is a fun course that does require some thought. The conditions aren't great, but they certainly won't inhibit your round. There are a few over the top holes (especially number 8), but overall, it is a fun, and fair challenge. The staff gets a 10/10 from me, as they were incredibly accommodating. I will be back again.
