10th hole at Pine Ridge

Yesterday I played at Pine Ridge Golf Course, which is located in Lutherville, just north of Towson. It is the best of the courses run by Baltimore Municipal Golf Corporation, a non-profit organization which manages five golf courses owned by Baltimore City: Pine Ridge, Mt. Pleasant, Carroll Park, Clifton Park and Forest Park. Pine Ridge is located on the Loch Raven reservoir and you can see the lake from many of the holes on the course. There is a ton of wildlife on the property, including deer, geese, ducks, rabbits, hawks and more. Also, it isn’t named Pine Ridge for nothing. There are a lot of trees on the course and it makes for tight driving at times.

All in all, I had a good time. So if you would like some great scenery and decent golf, make a tee time. Be warned, though. This is a course best played during the week as it gets ridiculously crowded on the weekend. Good luck.
