Maryland Golf Courses

Maryland has a long history in the formation of the United States of America. This small state donated the land on which our nation's capital, Washington, D.C., now sits. Shipping is one of the major industries in Maryland. The largest of these ports is located in Baltimore. The Inner Harbor is one of America's oldest seaports. Around this thriving port you will find shops, restaurants and hotels. This port is located on the Chesapeake Bay and the best time visit is during the spring or summer months.

Bulle Rock Golf Club is one the best golf courses in Maryland. This golf course was named after the first thoroughbred horses brought to the United States. Designed by Pete Dye, this golf course hosts the McDonald's LPGA Championship. This is one of the 4 majors on the LPGA Tour. Typical of courses in this area, the fairways and greens are created using bent grass. This grass provides for a very consistent and fast surface.

Many of the golf courses in this area are higher priced than in other parts of the country. Part of the reason is its close proximity to the nation's capital. Other popular public courses in this area include The Links at Lighthouse Sound, Swan Point Yacht and Country Club and Beechtree Golf Club.
