Before you make plans to go out for a round of golf, it’s important to keep in mind that most golf courses do have the option to purchase alcohol. If this makes you feel uncomfortable, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t go and enjoy a game of golf. You would just need to make sure that you bring a sober friend or family member with you. Here are some places in Baltimore to play:
Monster Mini Golf
If you are trying to determine whether your little one has any interest in golf, you may want to start by bringing them to a mini-golf course. Located just a few minutes outside of Baltimore is Monster Mini Golf. This is an indoor mini-golf course that is ideal for families because it’s a location you can go to regardless of the weather. One of the unique attributes of this location is that it is a go-in-the-dark course with a Halloween theme. Monster Mini Golf is seven days a week, but the hours vary, so you want to check ahead before your visit.
