About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Good, BUT......
Love, love loved this course the first time I played it a couple of months ago and started playing it at least once a week. At first would always play on the weekends...pace was good...greens and fairways were nice. The only problem I have with this course is on the weekdays the pace of play is terrible. Me and my buddy can usually get out there on a Saturday around 4 or 5 and finish before it even gets dark. But every time we get out there on a weekday around 5 or 6 we can never finish because we always get stuck behind slow players who don't have the courtesy to let us play through. Have never seen a course marshal and you will barely ever see a cart girl, if at all. I'll give it one more shot on a weekday, but if we can't finish i'll just stick to playing this course on the weekends. Overall I love this course it is one of my favorites in the area and I've played some of my best golf here.
Great Course, inept Management
The renovations at the course a few years back were exception. It is a fantastic course for the average golfer.
However, it is one of the poorest run courses in the Dallas area. They will let parties of 5-6 off on Sunday morning at prime time, rarely will you see a marshal to assist with the large parties they let out. Calling in the Pro shop, letting cart girls, or cart boys know, is of no help at all. And don't expect to purchase and last minute needs there,.. The pro shop is seriously lacking. The cart girls and café staff are the highlights of the staff.
The hotdogs are great.
Sadly this could be one of the better golf values in Dallas if it were not for the incompetent management. Hopefully the City will take notice are address the staffing shortfalls.
On the other hand,... if you have a big party and don't care about impacting your fellow golfers, these hacks will let you go out.
Best Public Course in DFW!!!!!
I judge courses by greens, length and fun for amateurs. I play 4-6 rounds per month in the DFW area and this course has the best greens you can find in the area. I have no idea who the greens keeper is but he deserves a raise. They are playing much better than Tribute, Cowboys Club, and even some of the private courses around her like Canyon Creek. This is a no frills golf course. Practice green runs true like the course, great grass on the range and they have food. Staff gets the job done and the play is normally 4 hours or less. Wish they would raise the price to keep more people off the course.
The course is in good condition
I play this course about twice a month. I enjoy it every time I play it. The course is always in good condition, and the staff is always great.
