Type Public
Par 72
Length 7026 yards
Slope 129
Rating 73.5

One of the first courses in the growing 1970s Plano community, Pecan Hollow started out as the Plano Municipal Golf Course. Don January and Billy Martindale, who had recently completed their signature Royal Oaks in Dallas, contracted with the city to help provide golf for Plano’s growing population.

The terrain here is flat, and the fairways are mostly wide open. January used the standard bunkers, water hazards, and trees in his design to cause problems for the golfer. The greens are of medium size and speed, and the course is basically pretty standard until you reach the punishing final stretch of holes. Nos. 16-18 are all 445-yard-plus par 4s with water in play–one of the toughest tests of golf in the DFW area.

Getting there : From I-75 north, take Plano Parkway east, then exit at 14th St. Turn right, drive a short distance to the course, and look for the entrance on the left side of the street.

Little to no grass; cut too short

Have played this course several times and enjoyed it. However, it's been mowed so short that fairways were down to the dirt/mud in Winter-- was easier to hit from the rough! Will come back in Spring when its green and reasonably playable.

Greens are always in good shape. Some thin lies but that's to be expected when the grass is dormant. Always enjoy playing there.

Where's the Marshall??

First time playing this course. Was very excited to try it out. $55 for a round and cart isn't bad, the only downside is there isn't a Marshall checking tee times. I got called to the box and a group of 4 jumped in front of me, reporting the Golf pro told em just go ahead and play. 2 of the golfers hadn't checked in or paid. I wish they were a Marshall to keep the pace of play reasonable. We were waiting 8 minutes for them to finish putting on the green. If yall see these guys beware.

Oh and somebody's donkeys got out slowing down pace of play once more.

Highly recommend

This was my first time playing Pecan Hollow, after only hearing rave reviews. My four man group of buddies all loved it and we'll be back again. It was cart path only on a day when that seemed unnecessary, but other than that, everything was great. It's not overly long, and a lot of greens are perched up, leaving longer approach shots, but the course was in great shape, and the pace was of play was better than most courses in the area.

Great golfing

Played with my spouse and another singleton. We were able to start early as there was an opening.

The course was in excellent shape. We had to adjust our putting as the greens were slower than we were accustomed to, but still fun. We enjoyed our round. I would recommend this course.

Fun and Challeging

Course is in excellent condition despite a drought in Texas. Green are very nice as are the fairways. This course is challenging enough, just pick your tee box. The spacing of tee times on a Sunday was perfect. With pre-pay you can book 2 weeks out which is very handy. One of my favorite courses in the area.
