Country Club of Jackson

What Country Club of Jackson does

The Country Club of Jackson is a privately held, membership-based country club founded in 1926 and headquartered at 3135 Horton Rd., Jackson, Michigan. It operates a single integrated recreational campus centered on a 27-hole golf facility composed of an 18-hole Pines/Woods course and a 9-hole Marsh course, complemented by a Trackman simulator room, a 24/7 fitness center, a Junior Olympic swimming pool, a zero-entry children's pool, four tennis courts (two clay and two hard surface), a fully stocked pro shop, and banquet and dining facilities. The club employs PGA-certified golf professionals and a CGCS-certified Golf Course Superintendent to deliver instruction and course conditioning.

The club generates revenue through a hybrid subscription and transaction model. Subscription recurring revenue comes from five membership tiers — Stockholder (age 40+ with mandatory stock purchase), Intermediate (ages 33-39, auto-converting to Stockholder at 40), Junior (ages 21-32), Social (clubhouse, fitness, pool, tennis without golf), and Non-Resident (residences more than 50 miles from the club). Transaction-based revenue is generated from dining services (casual at The Mixer and formal settings), bar service, banquet and event hosting, and the Kidz Camp day-care program. Membership acquisition is conducted direct-to-consumer through a dedicated Director of Membership and Communications (Wendy Zaggy), the club's website inquiry form, and member referral programs.

The go-to-market motion is local and relationship-driven, anchored in the Jackson, Michigan community and supported by a year-round social events calendar that runs from New Year's to Christmas, plus a high-profile Centennial Weekend scheduled for June 26-28, 2026 to commemorate the club's 100th anniversary. The club is independently owned with no disclosed parent company, no venture capital or private equity involvement, and no public financial filings; all operations are delivered on-site from its single Jackson facility.
