The Hereford Golf Center in Parkton, MD provides an afternoon of fun for kids of all ages.

The driving range provides a place to practice your swing with its’ large number of tee boxes. You can get a large or small bucket of balls, sign up for lessons, or buy goods in their pro shop.

Mini golf (called Lost Falls Miniature Golf Course) helps you practice your short game with its’ complex holes and beautiful setting. There are only a handful of miniature golf places in Baltimore, and this is a great one! My son thoroughly enjoyed the course, especially because the holes have flags, just like a “real” golf course.

Hereford Golf Center is located just off York Rd a little north of the Mt Carmel Rd exit off I-83 North. It is in Hereford or Parkton, depending on whom you talk to — either way, it is a quick jaunt from 83!

Mini golf is $4 for children under 12, $5 for adults. The driving range has small buckets of balls for $5, large for $8, and $12 for an extra large bucket.

So enjoy an afternoon or evening out in bucolic northern Baltimore County. You very well may see my family there!
