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.

Best Value Around

Oak Hollow is great value for your money. Pave it play is always great. Clubhouse staff is the nicest. Tee boxes were in great condition, greens are firm but roll true, fairways are decent, but need punched. Love this course.

Good course

The course is overall good, but the problem is too many golfers booked too close teetimes. Felt very rushed

Not good value for cost of green fees

Course is not in very good shape from the moment you warm up until you get on the course

Driving range was basically hitting off of dirt as there was not any grass left at all. Not sure how long they have been hitting from the same spot but it was horrible

Tee boxes were average and at least had grass on them. Fairways were very bad and none of them had any grass at all. Basically playing off of hard pan regardless of where your ball was.

Greens were recently punched but rolled well

Pace of play was ridiculous as they let several larger groups play together. We were a few holes behind a group of six and behind us was a group of 7 players. Not sure why a course would even allow this especially on a Saturday mid day.

They didn’t have enough carts and we had to wait at #1 tee box until right before our tee time for carts to be returned to get carts to start our round.

For the price they charge to play here I would definitely not recommend it and won’t be back as there are to many course around in much. Better shape for what they charge you

Nice layout

Greens were pretty good, but like most DFW courses, the fairways were mostly hardpan. At $70, I start to expect better conditions. What would keep me coming back would be even slightly improved conditions because the practice facilities were great, as was the staff, and I liked the combo pro shop/snack bar.

Nice layout but...

I realize it's early April but this course is mostly hardpan and where not, swampy. Even Greens are hard so nothing holds and slow compared to most. Several putts stopped on the edge.

Way over priced!

If you like playing in an industrial park this course is for you! This is not a good value at $70. Fairways were bad. Overview course condition was rough. For the money, there are so many better options.

Not worth $70

The only good thing about this course is the tee boxes. Fairways are not in good shape and the greens hard as a rock. I wouldn’t recommend this place unless the prices go significantly down. Dont come here

Nice round...

Friendly staff, simple, straightforward course. The greens are hard and fast (in a good way), fairways are decent, as are tee boxes. Layout is nothing special. Good value, 4 hour round.

All and all it reminds of of Mesquite--not terribly long or challenging but the greens are the show here---big, hard, undulating and fast.

You can generally miss left or right, trees are small, and bunkers are there but not overly numerous and none in the fairway.

I've played it after a rain (not recommended---again like Mesquite) but on a dry day it was fun, fast and a good value at $30 when everywhere else in town not named Duck Creek wanted $45 or $50. I'd go back for sure.

Nice Day at Oak Hallow

A lot of improvements over the last year. Carts are electric and in very good condition. Greens were fast with fairly even surface. Pace of play was a little slow. It is spring break here, so lots of family groups playing. (That's a good thing}. All in all a good value for the money.

Greens are great, fairways, not so much

Greens were quick and very firm. Don't expect your balls to stop quick. They did roll true though, so overall, solid greens. Tee boxes were in great shape, but the fairways were non existent in some parts. A lot of clay/mud, and with the amount of rain we got recently, it was tough if you were anywhere outside the cart path.

Kitchen was being renovated so only had hot dogs, but it was still a good dog. Overall, it's a pretty good course. I would say 3.5 stars instead of 4, but I'd definitely come back to play and by then, fairways should be better.

Fun course

I always have a good time on this course. The fairways definitely look like it is winter time, but the greens and tea boxes are always in great shape. The staff is always friendly.

Goat track with thieves

Concrete greens and fairways. Left range finder in cart and was stolen by morning. Donate $50 to this course if you want to lose confidence amongst other things at this premier goat track. Wear jeans if you want, you will fit right in.
