Hurlock is a town in Dorchester County, Maryland, United States.

The town was named after John M. Hurlock, a local store owner.

27.4% of all households were made up of individuals, and 13.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.

The annual Hurlock Fall Festival, held on the first Saturday of October, started in 1992.

It begins with a parade featuring local school bands, volunteer fire companies, and antique cars.

Vendors of arts, crafts and food line the streets in the vicinity of the town's historic train station, where the Hurlock Express offers 1-hour round-trip rides to Federalsburg, Maryland.

The town owns the train station and two restored passenger cars, which are pulled by a locomotive provided by the Maryland and Delaware Railroad.
