Visiting Hours at Grayson County Jail: Male vs. Female Schedules
Planning an in-person visit at Grayson County Jail? The schedule depends on whether your loved one is in the male or female visitation block. Here's what you need to know about days, times, and how the first-come, first-served system works.
In-person visitation runs Tuesday through Saturday. It's first-come, first-served - no reservations. Get there early, and you'll have a better shot at checking in before the session fills up.
Tip: Because visits are first-come, first-served, plan to get there before the visitation window starts - not right at the start time.
Female inmate visitation has two daily windows: 8:00am–9:00am and 3:00pm–4:00pm. Pick whichever session lets you arrive early - seating goes by arrival order, so timing matters more than which window you choose.
Reminder: The maximum in-person visitation time is 30 minutes, even if the overall window is longer.
Male inmate visitation runs 9:00am–11:00am and 1:00pm–3:00pm. These windows are longer than the female sessions, but your actual visit is still capped. Arriving early matters just as much.
Reminder: Visits are limited to a maximum of 30 minutes.
Each visit maxes out at 30 minutes - that's per visit, not per window. During a longer block like 9:00am–11:00am, staff rotate visitors in and out to keep things moving. This is exactly why showing up early matters: the jail can only fit so many 30-minute visits into each session. Once it's full, late arrivals may not get seated at all.
- Arrive before the window starts - first-come, first-served scheduling works best when you’re already there as the session opens.
- Plan around a 30-minute visit - even if the block is two hours long, your time with the person you’re visiting tops out at 30 minutes.
- Expect turnover during the session - longer windows often mean multiple short visits are being cycled through.
- Pick a different day if you can’t get seated - since the schedule runs Tuesday through Saturday, shifting your visit can be the quickest fix when a window is packed.
Practical Tips
- ✓ Arrive early for your time window since seating is first-come, first-served.
- ✓ Build your day around a 30-minute maximum visit.
- ✓ If you can’t make the start of a window, consider coming on a different day (visitation runs Tuesday through Saturday).
One more thing: each inmate can have three approved visitors per month. That list resets on the first Tuesday of each month. If you're not currently approved, coordinate with your loved one before that first Tuesday to get added.
