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.

If you like a Hotdog at the turn this is the course for you!

We took a chance vs the elements and it paid off course was empty greens on a dry day look to be in fantastic shape, fun course, the hotdogs are massive and solid, only downfall was they just have just aerated the fairways

sunny cool day

The day was a beautiful sunny cool day. Pace of play was slow because many came out in the afternoon to play after experiencing cold weather in the past few weeks. The greens were in great condition considering the freezes we have had lately. The fairway had dry frozen grass and some spots were muddy. The layout of the course is great for practice. I definitely would come back during the Spring.

Fairways have issues, 5+ hour round.

I have played Pecan Hollow 20+ times in the last several years, and this is the worst I have ever seen it. Rain, cold, and play, has taken its toll on this course. The greens were still very good for the area and price point. Without some serious work, it is hard to see this course getting back to its once stellar condition anytime soon. Took over 5 hours to play which didn’t help. Behind a party that had several tee times, that acted as they were the only ones playing. Staff is always good, ranger apologized early, but never followed up.
