Situated two-and-a-half hours north of Chicago in the Village of Kohler, Wisc., is Destination Kohler – an unforgettable resort property that creates luxury at every turn, including the storied golf offering that is home to four Pete Dye courses. Providing memorable experiences has long been the catalyst of the expanding portfolio. The impressive evolution started with an idea from Herbert V. Kohler Jr. to turn an immigrant dormitory for factory workers into a boutique resort hotel. It grew to provide unmatched hospitality, and has resulted in Destination Kohler firmly establishing itself as a legendary, world-class golf destination.  

Its award-winning, championship golf courses – Whistling Straits® and Blackwolf Run® – have hosted three PGA Championships, the U.S. Senior Open and two U.S. Women’s Opens. The Straits Course will host 24 of the best golfers from the U.S. and Europe in September when they compete in golf’s most thrilling event, the 43rd Ryder Cup.  

With a natural pivot to the future, Kohler Golf has its sights set on growing the game and providing greater access by expanding its offerings around the world. In June, Kohler will unveil The Baths of Blackwolf Run®. Paying homage to Kohler Co.’s 138-year history of bathing and design excellence, The Baths is a 10-hole par-3 course that will also feature a two-acre putting course, food and beverage service, and special event capability. At both Destination Kohler and The Old Course Hotel in Scotland, golf enthusiasts can also visit the Swing Studios year-round to hone their game or simply for fun and friendly competition.  

Beyond golf, the Kohler Waters Spa is the only five-star spa in Wisconsin and one of only 60 in the world, with an evolving health and wellbeing program led by boutique fitness businesses Yoga on the Lake and Bold Cycle. Moreover, Kohler’s 500-acre nature preserve, River Wildlife, is a coveted escape from the rigors of urban life with its hiking and sun-dappled walking trails, upland bird hunting, and fishing along the meandering Sheboygan River. 

 

The resort also boasts gracious accommodations that suit any traveler. The American Club is a Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond Hotel that offers the finest in amenities, service and comfort. Built in 1918, The American Club once served as a dormitory to immigrant workers and their families. The American Club Carriage House includes a variety of rooms and amenities tailored to wellness, while The Inn on Woodlake is a favorite among those enjoying the resort for golf and business.  

Other lodging options include four one-of-a-kind private cabins; SandhillRed FoxLake and Pond, which are thoughtfully located on the outskirts of the resort. Cabin guests are surrounded by nature and privacy and can also enjoy access to the resort’s five-star amenities. 

Destination Kohler offers golf packages that showcase the resort’s awe-inspiring golf courses, accommodations, amenities, and activities. Visit www.americanclubresort.com/golf to learn more, or contact the resort at 800-855-2838 to book.
