Insurance to Fly GA in USA

I am near the end of my PPL training & hope to have my licence by the end of February.
In May i am having a two week holiday in USA & will be near Capitol airport Springfield Illinois KSPI
I wish to do a bit of local leisure flying while out there in a 172, I had a look on this site;

Rent an Aircraft

& these guys rent aircraft but stipulate that i would need "Renters" insurance....
I tried to get quote for maybe a months insurance of the AOPA site & it wouldn't give me any insurance for less that one complete year.
Is this normal or it this company that is renting just covering it's self over an above it's own insurance??
The quote i got was for $216.00 which seems a lot for maybe 5 hours & less that 10 hours flying i "Might" do while there.

Any advice or help grateful thanks.
