One of the reasons couples savor a stay at a fine resort is that they can kick back and enjoy amenities they don't have at home. At The American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin -- the first midwestern resort to receive a Five Diamond Award from AAA -- that means having a luxurious bathroom that translates into a watery playground for two.

Secluded and luxurious, the Tudor-style American Club is located in the small village of Kohler, 55 miles north of Milwaukee. Each of the 185 guest rooms in the main hotel is named after a famous American and contained a framed portrait and biography of the room's namesake.

Bathrooms at The American Club all feature modern sinks, tubs, and and faucets from Kohler Co., which owns and operates the resort.

Every guestroom boasts a Kohler whirlpool bath -- and many rooms have even more elaborate amenities: Some of the more sophisticated bathrooms at The American Club include a ten-jet BodySpa Personal Hydro-Massage System, seven-foot oval Super Bath whirlpool, multi-function Mastershower tower with four showerheads and ten push-button electronic keypad control, or Kohler Whitecap Shower and Foot Whirlpool with steam enclosure.

So when you make a reservation, ask which are available to you -- and which are big enough for two.

Since no trip to Wisconsin is complete without tasting its famed cheese, The Winery Bar at The American Club features a cheese cellar and an extensive wines-by-the-glass list. The American Club also has a fine restaurant, a classic hotel dining room, a casual pub, and an old-fashioned dessert parlor.

Don't worry about adding pounds: The American Club provides complimentary access to its health and racquet club and advance tee times at the Blackwolf Run and Whistling Straits golf courses.

Couples who have or are planning to buy a house or apartment may find a visit to the Kohler Design Center in town inspiring. Model baths and kitchens in a 36,000 square-foot building showcase Kohler products. And if you're really interested in how these things are made, there's a free factory tour Monday through Friday at 8:30 a.m.

Back at The American Club, the Kohler Waters Spa offers a menu of more than 50 services and treatments including bathing, massages, facials and other spa services with particular emphasis on innovative water treatments.

Of course, with a little imagination, you'll devise your own H20 hijinks in the privacy of your room at The American Club....
