About

Holes 18
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.

Muny with excellent pace of play -- a rarity.

Played in early March, so grass was dormant. Course was soggy due to recent heavy rains. Greens excellent for this time of year, and obviously drain well. Generally wide open course, except for #8, which is out-of-context with rest of course and unfair. Good variety of hole length, direction, and elevation. Excellent value for combination of green fee and pace of play.

Everything you want in golf

I have played at Oak Hollow many times and consider it to be one of my favorites in north Texas. The price is cheap but doesn't take away from the quality. It has some easy holes and difficult ones that will challenge your game. The Greens are in good shape right now. I have a good time every time i play here.

Great Weather - Average Course

Pace of Play was poor - too many slow golfers on the course. Had to wait on carts the course was so full. We were paired up with a couple of great young guys that also booked with GolfNow.

Great Course to work on your game

Temperature was great, however, 30-40mph wind added to the difficulty. Met up with a threesome Father son, had fun. Great for a Saturday afternoon and holiday weekend.

Oak Hollow-McKinney TX

It was a great weather day, just a bit windy though. The tee boxes and green have been over seeded for winter play. The greens are in exceptionally good condition, running a bit fast.

condition good. Fairway very thin grass.

Course is longer than most city course @ par 70.
Plays like par 72. Most par 3 holes are 180 or longer.
Great Fun!

Consistent - No matter what season.

I always enjoy playing Oak Hollow. It's always easy to get on the course and the entire staff is always very helpful. The course always seems to be in very good condition and well trimmed.

This isn't Cowboys, but the condition is great for a Municipal course. You won't be disappointed playing this course.

Great value

The greens were excellent - the fairways are in great shape - pace of play was wonderful @ a little over 3 hours - the course is not difficult, but there are a few holes that will grab you when you get careless - plus, the cost to play is very reasonable.

Nice round, fun course

Nice round of golf on a fun course. Staff is always friendly and a good value thru golfnow. Fairways a little dry but greens are in nice shape. Some of the holes in the middle of the course are a little close - watch out for your fellow golfer:)

Good course, needs more Marshal's

A beautiful course overall. A bit dried out in areas. The need more supervision from a Marshal to maintain pace of play.

Confusing track poor condition

This course has too many blind tee shots, switchbacks. Course was in poor condition. Greens were ratty and bumpy. I will say that the par 3s are solid holes, but there are so many odd angle drives required. There is one hole that you have to aim into another fairway in order to stay in play. Its just a tight confusing track. Sorry.

Nice Little Course

First time playing Oak Hollow. Staff was very friendly and rates were good. Course was in nice shape. Water available on the course in several areas, which is important during the hot TX summer. Not a super challenging layout from a hazard perspective, but had quite a few dogleg holes and some long par 3s.

Solid course

Had a fun round of golf at this course. The course condition was good. There were a couple of scenic views that enhanced the experience. My only complaint is that two of the holes were a little confusing as to where the fairway was. My golf partner and I had to stop and figure out where to hit. One of the holes was side-by-side with another hole before splitting off in opposite directions. Very confusing. Other than that it is a solid course. I would recommend it to anyone.
