Maxwelton Golf Club Inc

What Maxwelton Golf Club Inc does

Maxwelton Golf Club Inc is a privately held, single-asset golf club operator founded in 1930 in Syracuse, Indiana, that runs an 18-hole Scottish-inspired golf course commissioned by a Scottish immigrant in the mid-1920s, with construction beginning in 1928 and the course opening in 1930. The course features rolling fairways, changes in elevation, and small undulating greens modeled on traditional Scottish golf architecture, supported by a state-of-the-art irrigation system and modern agronomy practices, and offers multiple tee boxes (Blue, White, Gold, Red) rated 70.8/128 slope from the Blue Tees. The club serves individual golfers, families, and junior golfers in Kosciusko County and surrounding counties, with a small core team of 5 employees including a Head Golf Professional, Food & Beverage Manager, Head Chef, and Course Superintendent.

The company generates revenue through five streams: recurring annual golf memberships (Single at $1,450-$1,550, Family at $1,750-$1,850, Junior at $350), separate recurring cart memberships (Single $1,250, Family $1,650), usage-based green fees ($44-$74 weekday, $55-$74 weekend, with twilight rates), on-site F&B revenue from Maxi's Bar & Grill (breakfast and lunch), and tournament entry fees for events such as the Bob Carlson Invitational and Club Championships. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via online tee time booking on the GolfNow Business platform, walk-in play, and downloadable membership applications; marketing is limited to the company website, Facebook, an E-Club email newsletter, and Syracuse-Warsaw Chamber of Commerce affiliation. The operating model is community-led, anchored by Men's and Ladies' Golf Associations with regular tournaments and member events.

Direct peers

• Eagle Golf: Third-party operator of private and semi-private golf clubs. Comparable as a club management firm running membership-based facilities with golf operations, dining, and events.
• Heritage Golf Group: Manages and owns private country clubs and golf facilities. Directly comparable as a multiple-course owner/operator focused on member-based clubs with associated F&B and event programming.
• Billy Casper Golf (now Wedgewood Golf): Operates and manages public and private golf courses nationwide. Comparable to Maxwelton as a course operator handling tee times, memberships, tournaments, and on-site food and beverage.
• American Golf: Operates a large network of public and private golf courses with memberships, lessons, and F&B. Comparable as a course operator serving both member and daily-fee golfers across multiple markets.
• Arnold Palmer Golf Management: Manages a portfolio of daily-fee and private clubs. Closely comparable in its focus on operating golf courses with memberships, lessons, F&B, and tournament hosting.
• Kemper Sports Management: Operates and manages a portfolio of public, private, and resort golf courses across the U.S. Directly comparable as a multi-course operator running similar membership/green-fee golf experiences including both daily-fee and member facilities.
• Troon: Largest golf management company in the world, managing daily-fee, private, and resort courses. Highly comparable business model: club operations, memberships, F&B, tournaments, and pro shop services at the course level.

Regional players

• Pinehurst Resort: Iconic U.S. golf resort with multiple courses, lodging, and F&B. Comparable in core golf operations and tournament hosting, though at a much larger and more destination-focused scale in the Southeastern U.S.

Others

• GolfNow: Online tee-time booking platform and distribution partner (used by Maxwelton via GolfNow Business). Listed as a peer because it is the dominant digital channel through which Maxwelton reaches non-member golfers.

Broad incumbents

• Invited (formerly ClubCorp): Operates a large portfolio of private country clubs and golf clubs across the U.S. While much larger and broader in scope, the core offering of membership-based golf clubs with F&B and events directly overlaps with Maxwelton's model.
