24/7 answering service for golf courses

Why use a golf course phone answering service?

In any business, it's not easy to make sure every call gets answered. For golf courses, an unanswered call might mean a lost tee time or an unhappy member. With so many moving parts from course maintenance to pro shop sales, you can't always be by the phone.

That's why golf course managers and owners use an answering service:

  • Never miss a reservation. Whether it’s golfers booking early-morning tee times or guests calling about your restaurant or event space, we’ll answer every call, day or night.
  • Make a great first impression. Friendly, professional call handling gives members and guests confidence in your course and keeps them coming back.
  • Focus on your players. While you’re helping golfers, running the pro shop, or managing the grounds, we handle the calls so you and your staff stay focused on delivering a great experience on and off the green.
