Title: New Report: America Now Has 3,849 Indoor Golf Venues — and the Median Simulator Session Costs $40 an Hour

United States, 13th Jul 2026 — GolfSim.co, a free directory and data platform tracking the U.S. indoor golf market, today released the inaugural State of Indoor Golf in America report — a data-driven snapshot of one of the fastest-growing segments in golf. The report tracks 3,849 live indoor golf venues across all 50 states and 838 markets, alongside companion studies benchmarking hourly pricing in 45 states and comparing 11 franchise and chain brands.Key findings, according to the State of Indoor Golf in America report from GolfSim.co:The national median price for an hour in a simulator bay is $40, based on 794 venues with a published hourly rate.

Maryland and Vermont tie for the lowest median at $25 per hour. Among metros, Henderson, Nevada tops the list at a median of $87 per hour.Indoor golf is still overwhelmingly a small-business industry.
