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.

Nice greens
Perfect day
Played as a two so we were held up a bit
3 1/2 HR round good for Friday at 11
Great Day to play Golf !
It was a perfect day to Play !
It took almost 5 hours to play a round. Tee times were way too close together. Good course but wait was rediculous!
Glad you had a great day! Hope to see you back again soon!
Good value, but needs improvement
This is a great value for the play. Course isn't in great shape, but still very playable. The greens are very slow and burnt. Ants are starting to attack the course right now. The rough areas are not maintained very much. Looks like they just get mowed and that's it. It's a pretty difficult course from the tips (which are blue tees). Good play for the money, but wish the course was in better shape. Could be way worse though.
Hi Scott, Thanks for your review and feedback on the course! We're always greatful for the opinions on how we could improve from our golfers!
Nothing Special
Nothing too special about this course. Fairways were ok, greens were extremely slow, lots of weeds in the rough.
Hey "jalfordcpa" We are constantly working to improve so we appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review and provide your feedback!
Nice Course
Great time! Great value! This is a nice course for what you pay. I would recommend it to everyone regardless of skill level.
Thank you for your rating and recommendation, John! Hope to see you back on the course for your next round soon!
Decent Course
Overall, the course is pretty good for the value. It wasn't a memorable course, but it wasn't a course you try your best to forget either.
Hey "ltharris85" thanks for the review! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your round. Come back and see us again soon.
What were they thinking?
Before booking this reservation, I read the reviews online most of which had high praise for the course. Once my daughter and I got there, we found the course to be not in very good condition. The fairways were bumpy and hard, the greens were bumpy and hard and there was no water in o couple of the water jugs. This would normally not be a problem but it was close to 95° the afternoon we played. Additionally there was no cart girl that came by with drinks. Ever. Not even one time.
I will not be returning. For the price there are much better courses in the area.
Hey "drjhicken" we apologize that you were not satisfied with the course conditions. We are always working to improve and appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback. We hope that you will come out and see us again soon.
Pace of play horrible
Really good course for your money but pace of play was horrible. So many 2somes back to back to back. They should have been paired up, I don't recall EVER seeing a Marshall. But I was told by several golfers that are regulars even when there is a Marshall they don't saying anything to anyone. On one hole there was a group on the green, 1 in the fairway, 1 on the tee box and 2 more waiting at the tee box. Then group in front of me jumped in front of the group in front of them and I found out why. I talked to them on the tee box and 1 said he never played before. The next hole they took forever in the fairway and then when they got done with the hole they stood on the green talking for several minutes, I picked up my ball and went home.
Hi "Chancy2180877" thanks for the feedback. We are sorry to hear that pace of play was not up to par. But, we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the course.
Good Conditions, Horrible Pace of Play
I played Saturday morning at 10:12 AM and we didn't hit our second tee shot until almost 11:00 AM. There was not one hole where we didn't have to wait for the group (or groups) in front of us to tee off. Other than the slow pace of place the course was great. The entire course was green and freshly mowed and the greens were firm but fair. I really enjoyed the course layout and the challenging greens. I would definitely suggest playing this course but you may want to play early or on a week day. For the money it is one of the better courses north of Dallas but I will never play here on a weekend again.
Hi "PuttingForDough" thanks for the feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our course conditions and layout. But, we are sorry that pace of play was not up to par. We are constantly improving to provide the best golfing experience. We hope to see you back again for another round.
Great value, Nice layout
Best father's gift from my daughter. Have to wait a little bit for peolple in the front before they let us play thru. Love the lay-out. Position and distance control are very important here. Will come back again.

Hi "u000007100217" thanks for the review! We are very happy to hear that you had an enjoyable round here at Oak Hollow Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you back again soon for the next round!
A great day
I've played this course a dozen times, each time it seems we are always waiting no matter how early we book. Well not this time, the starter was on the same page as not having an empty tee box. We played as a threesome and had four in front of us that played really fast. We got in just under 3 1/2 hrs. Hope this will continue and we will keep coming back.. nice job to the starter and marshall!!
Hi "u988089001" we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your round! We hope to see you back again soon.
Employees playing ahead of us ruined our day
The course was in great shape. My major complaint is that we saw two groups (a 4 some and a 5 some) of Oak Hollow employees playing in front of us. They refused to let any 2 somes play through. The course marshall didn't blink an eye that they had 5 players playing together on a holiday weekend.
Hi "philliprose" we do apologize that you did not enjoy your experience out on the course. Can you please email us at oakhollowgolf@gmail.com
and share some more details about your experience. We would love to make this right for you!
Triple booked tee times
This course needs to manage its tee times. I got there and had three other groups with the same tee time. And then the walk up. We waited in the tee box, every tee box for 10-15 minutes.
Terrible pace of play.
The greens are fast. The realist of the course condition is below what other muni courses are in DFW.
I can find better places to play for the price.

Liked the Layout but
There were several holes where we had errant shots from other holes almost hit us since they are so close to each other. The course looks like it has great potential but just needs to be taken care of a little bit better. It had just rained a ton that week and the course was still dry and hard as a rock in some areas. I can't imagine what it's like in the middle of the summer.
Overall, it's still a good value since it's so cheap. Good course if you're just looking to get in 18 without having to fork over an arm and a leg.
Hi "RyanBehmanesh" thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon.
Course condition
My son and I luckily arrived early as there was a tournament booked and the pro shop apologized that it had not been put on the books, but we could go out early, but to start on hole 4. I understood this situation and I was just glad to be out playing with my son. We arrived at hole 4 and another group was there. We waited for them to tee off and then we did. We never really had to wait on the group ahead, nor did the group behind us have to wait. When we finished hole 18 and headed to hole 1 to complete our round there were 4 groups waiting to tee off. We just quit at that time. The pro shop was very nice when we arrived and again I know this was an oversize. We had a fun day. My complaint or issue was the condition of the course. I know that it's just passed the winter months and grass isn't completely in, but there were 2 ponds on the course that was full of debris, bottles, cans, garbage. The tee boxes were full of broken tees and hardly any grass on the tee boxes.
It really needs to be cleaned up just for a nice eye appeal. I have 2 homes which are in golf resorts and I don't expect city courses to be perfect, but please clean up garbage around the ponds and tees off the tee boxes.
Hello "Jbelliott12" we sincerely apologize about this whole situation. However, we are glad that you still had a great time with your son out there. We are constantly working to better improve our course conditions and we hope to see you again soon!
Good place to play
Though I've played this course 3 times now to get a good feel of it, I like it. The layout is good, with a few holes that sit close to other tee boxes and the driving range. You may run into some people that are just stubborn and won't let you play through, but it's all good. Just relax and enjoy your round.
Hey "selmard" we are glad that you enjoy the layout of our course! We also do encourage all of our golfers to let faster groups play through, unfortunately, some groups just will not do that. We hope to see you again soon!
perfect day
The course was in good shape for the season and the pace was a little slow but for good Friday it was to be expected.. Great service and the cart girl was exceptional, she came around often and the course was fantastic to play. A few difficult holes mixed in with average holes. Great day.
Hi "robbymoy" we are so glad that you enjoyed your time out at Oak Hollow! We hope to see you again soon!
Needs grass in rough and fairways filled in
I know it's early in the season, but I've played other courses closer to me that are in much better shape in terms of grass density. Also, the fairways are pretty hard pan, even with the recent rain. Price was OK, but not advantageous enough for me to make the trip. Maybe later this spring, if reviews indicate the course is more playable.
Hi "u075850243" We are sorry the conditions disappointed you and can assure you we are doing everything we can to get back to normal great conditions. Thank you for coming out and playing!
Nice Course to start the summer
The course is forgiving to a certain extend. Good course to start the summer.
We look forward to seeing you back some more this summer! Thank you for coming out to play and providing your feedback.
Great Weather for Early March
Tee box so hard had trouble getting tee's in ground.
So many Range Balls land on #10 fairway we had to hunt for our dives.
Course needed water, 2nd shots were always from hardpan.
Thank you for coming out to play and providing your feedback! We can assure you we are constantly working to improve the greens and hope you will return soon so we can provide a fully satisfying experience!
