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.

Greens turning already

Overall course is great value for the money. Some of the brand new greens are already drying out and have major spots that are in poor shape. Fairways are okay, but need punched and grass growth. They have a major tournament I’m playing in next weekend and the greens are so firm it’s going to be hard to stick any shot on them.

Great Improvments

Now that the track has grown in after the course makeover, I can say it's improved greatly. Fairways are much better and the greens are upper tier. The driving range is far better than it's ever been. Overall, a good experience!

Good course

First time playing here. Had heard that they recently re-did the tee boxes and greens. It showed because they were in excellent shape. The rest of the course was not too bad, certainly playable for an average golfer. It was quite busy and the pace of play was somewhat slow; there was one hole in particular that seemed to always have 2 or 3 groups back up on it. We weren’t in a hurry so it was not a big deal. We would definitely play here again.

3 hrs 9 holes

I booked off of golf now, this is not their fault !!

Paid at course, seemed normal, had a starter, started backing up on the second hole, the three of us were behind a twosome, each of the holes we had close to 10 minute wait, by the end of nine, we find out that there was ( four ) fivesomes in front of us. I know at least nine players walked off. When saying something to the course marshal, he stated if we didn’t like the way they ran the course, there are other courses. So call before you book to make sure this doesn’t happen to you !!!

Great course

Tees, fairways, and greens all in great condition. Was cart path only due to recent rain. Had good drainage but muddy in spots. Looking forward to my next round there in the near future.

Improved but not great

New greens are better than Ana Poa infested greens. There are dips and rough spots that need to be leveled. Remodeled restroom on course is very nice.

Rain Day

Got in 9 holes before the downpour of rain. Clubhouse was super accommodating and gave a rain check for 18 holes! Greens are firm and hard to stop the ball, but they’re brand new still. Tee boxes in great shape, fairways in decent shape. Great value!

Pretty nice course

Although, we got rained out after 6 holes, the course was well kept. Greens were slower than we expected. Staff was super friendly. We'll definitely play it again

First time

Overall conditions were okay. Greens were punched recently and were a bit bumpy. Fairways and tees were decent, looks as though they have been worked on as well. I'm definitely play it again.

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.

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.
