Golf Course and Country Club Insurance

We offer quality protection that is on par with your exclusive needs.

We provide custom insurance solutions designed to fulfill the unique needs of Golf Courses and Country Clubs.

Golf courses and country clubs present unique risk exposures for many entities – guests, members, Board of Directors, cooks, maintenance staff, lifeguards, executive staff, tennis, and professionals to name a few.

Whether a golf course or country club is owned or managed by members or stakeholders, the goal is the same – provide an enjoyable, safe experience for all who partake in the facilities’ amenities.

In the event of a loss to the facility, club members and stakeholders will undoubtedly ask management what was done to protect members and guests, staff, your community, your reputation, and certainly not least, your golf course. It’s of utmost importance that your golf course or club be allied with an insurance professional who knows the ins and outs of a golf operation and the importance of protecting the club’s assets.

Customized to the needs of your golf course or country club.

Are you attentive to the following golf course and country club risks?

  • Is your property properly covered? From old historic clubhouses to modern LEED-certified construction, is your property policy prepared to be rebuilt quickly and efficiently?
  • While hosting weddings or conferences, what happens in event of multiple injuries or alleged discrimination?
  • In the event pesticides are spilled into the nearby watershed…will your policy respond adequately?
  • Are you prepared to reopen quickly in event of a fire or storm loss? What about lost income from a closed or damaged golf course or canceled weddings and events?
  • Regarding Workers Compensation, is your staff adequately trained in the daily duties asked of them? Resulting claims can impact a club’s bottom line and reputation.
  • If the golf course is vandalized or several greens are destroyed by fallen trees – will your policy have adequate limits to rebuild those greens or will members be assessed the balance of the cost?
  • If there is a cyber liability incident, how will the club respond when members and guests’ personal data is breached?
  • Will the members search for a new General Manager or Board of Directors in response to a claim that is poorly handled or inadequately insured?

Your independent agent representing Wells Insurance can customize an insurance program specific to the needs of your golf course or country club.
