overview
The American Club was founded in 1918 by former Kohler Co. President Walter J. Kohler, Sr., to provide lodging and respite for immigrant laborers who worked at Kohler Co. After extensive renovations of The American Club’s main building to maintain historic features, today the hotel is recognized as a AAA Five-Diamond hotel. The baths are outfitted with modern amenities from Kohler Co., and The American Club’s distinguished hallways display antiques from the town’s varied history. Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run, four world-class golf courses designed by Pete Dye; a 500-acre nature preserve, Kohler Waters Spa, and the Kohler Design Center, all ensure an experience like no other. It is truly an American classic.
