Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House Named 2025 Chautauqua County Business of the Year
Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House was honored as the 2025 Chautauqua County Business of the Year by the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce. This recognition celebrates the incredible people behind our business and the community that continues to support Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House as a year-round gathering place in Bemus Point, New York.
As we closed the doors on 2025, we found ourselves reflecting on something deeper than a calendar year. What stood out most were the moments. Conversations that lasted a little longer than anyone expected. Familiar faces who became part of the rhythm of our days. New visitors who discovered Bemus Point and experienced everything the Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House has to offer.
Located in the heart of Bemus Point, New York, on Chautauqua Lake, the Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House is many things. A public golf course. A year-round restaurant and Tap House. A gathering place for locals and visitors throughout Chautauqua County.
But above all else, it is a reflection of the people who fill it.
And in 2025, those people made this place one of the most meaningful destinations in our community.

A Humbling Honor in 2025
One of the most meaningful moments of the year came when the Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House was named the 2025 Chautauqua County Business of the Year by the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce.
This recognition meant more to us than words can fully express.
Not because of the title itself, but because of what it represents. Our team. Our community. Our fellow businesses. And every guest who chooses us as their favorite restaurant, Tap House, or public golf course in Chautauqua County.
This honor belongs to all of you.
Remembering Wynter
This year also brought a deeply personal moment for us as we said goodbye to our beloved Chocolate Lab, Wynter.
If you have visited the Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House, there is a good chance Wynter greeted you. She was our unofficial greeter, a familiar face around the golf course and Tap House, and a source of comfort and joy for so many guests.
She had a way of making people feel at home the moment they arrived.
The outpouring of kindness, love, and support from our community meant more to us than we can ever fully express. Thank you for the compassion you showed Bryce, Rachael, Kamy, and our entire team during that time.
Wynter will always be part of the Bemus Point Golf Club & Tap House story.
