Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes "a holiday album of this size may seem like overkill, but this isn't one sprawling, unedited session: it's two distinct albums, the first containing secular seasonal standards, the second religious-themed carols." and finishes the review with "and both are solid holiday albums."[1]
Andrew W. Griffin of reddirtreport.com writes in his review, "All in all, A Toby Keith Classic Christmas is the sort of holiday album all Oklahomans should add to their collection."[2]
CMT reviewed the album and said, "Singing yuletide favorites in front of an intimate Nashville audience, superstar Toby Keith delivers a scaled down performance reminiscent of a family gathering with a visit from special guest, Jewel."[3]
CBS News briefly touched on the album and mentioned "On The Early Show Friday, Keith agreed with the assessment of co-anchor Hannah Storm that the new CD is very traditional."[4]
