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.

Excellent course!

Excellent course! Fast greens, GPS golf carts, return to fairway / cart path lockout on golf carts, excellent range, putting green and short game area. Course is usually crowded but as expected in Dallas area.

My favorite all around course

It looks and feels almost like a private club, the little details are great, like a ball/club cleaner on the golf cart. The grass is well maintained and there are a lot of shade trees.

A few courses are a bit cheaper but this is the best value.

Improved 2025

Pecan Hollow continues to be an amazing course. Despite the heat, the course was green and firm. Some of the t boxes felt like concrete when trying to place your tee, but that was my only complaint. A mostly straight course with little external noise other than the wind and wildlife. Go find all the balls I lost.

What happened

Course was not great that day. Lots of trash floating around the course. Grass is tall for the fairway. Cleanliness of golf carts and some items on carts need to be fixed. The club and golf ball cleaner was leaking and had to put water in it. Does the speaker work or not? We played a week earlier it was fine. Not sure what happened.

Great course but lacking extras

The course at Pecan Hollow is great. We noticed a lot trash laying around. The bathrooms on the course need EMERGENCY attention. The grill can use some updates and a proper bar. Other than that the course is beautiful and peaceful. The pace of play was slow. The young lady driving around the course with snacks was nice and pleasant.
