What Is Golf Course Insurance?

Golf course insurance is a type of business insurance specially designed to cover the needs of a golf course. As with all business insurance, that means it’s a blend of several different types of coverage.

Common types of insurance that may be included in a golf course insurance policy

General liability – Covers legal expenses in case of a lawsuit.

Liquor liability – Covers legal expenses specifically related to serving alcohol, like drunk driving cases.

Directors and officers insurance (D&O) – Covers board members and other senior leaders in your organization if they’re sued based on decisions they made for your organization.

Commercial property – Covers buildings and other property, like furniture, in case of natural disaster or other damage.

Flood insurance – Covers flood damage which isn’t covered by normal commercial property insurance.

Commercial auto insurance – Covers vehicles, like maintenance trucks or courtesy cars, in case of accidents.

Inland marine insurance – Covers equipment that moves, like golf carts or lawn tractors. May also cover the green or special course features like trees that aren’t covered by commercial property insurance.

Workers’ compensation – Covers worker expenses if they are injured on the job.

It’s smart to change up your coverage over time as your needs change, which an independent insurance agent can help manage. Larger courses will need more insurance, especially if you want to host special events like weddings or tournaments.
