Guest enhancements include 66 additional guest rooms, golf and F1 racing simulators, duck-pin bowling, a new bar/restaurant, and more

KOHLER, Wis., Nov. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- To elevate the guest experience and provide additional room capacity and recreation for both visitors and local residents, the Kohler, Wisconsin luxury resort is proceeding with a significant renovation and expansion to the Inn on Woodlake Hotel. The project will include the addition of 66 new guest rooms as well as an immersive social hub, Bucks & Birdies Entertainment Center.

This expansion marks another enhancement in Kohler's continued investment in its hospitality portfolio, further elevating the guest experience and strengthening the region's tourism landscape. Recently completed projects that coincide with this revitalization included the refreshed five-star Kohler Waters Spa, The Greenhouse garden café inside The American Club, upgrades at Whistling Straits, and the debut of The Lost Sheep food truck. Projects currently underway include Purebred Farm, a new 14-hole golf course; The Serve, a premier racquet sports facility; Woodlake Market, a wellness-focused marketplace; and the renovation of The Carriage House at The American Club Resort Hotel.

The three-story expansion to Kohler's boutique hotel will introduce 66 additional guest rooms and suites, alongside an exciting new golf and entertainment center, with an accompanying bar and restaurant. Outdoor enhancements will be comprised of a new hotel entrance, landscaping, tree plantings, and hardscaping – including a spacious stone-paved promenade and patio along Wood Lake.

Demolition to select Shops at Woodlake structures to accommodate the expansion is underway. The existing three-diamond Inn on Woodlake, which opened in 1994, will continue normal operations throughout construction. Completion is anticipated in June 2027.

The expansion will bring the hotel's total room count to 203, including two and four-bedroom suites. Another key highlight of the project is the addition of an immersive social hub designed for guests and locals alike, featuring golf and F1 racing simulators, duck pin bowling, darts, a casual pub/restaurant, and outdoor activities, such as an expanded putting green and live music. The entertainment center will be housed on the main level of the new space and the additional guest rooms located on the three floors above.

"Guests travel from around the world to play our legendary courses at Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run, to unwind in the tranquility of our Forbes Five-Star Kohler Waters Spa, and to savor exceptional dining and one-of-a-kind seasonal events," said Nina Kohler, Strategy and Design Consultant for Kohler Hospitality. "The reimagined Inn on Woodlake and its new entertainment district give us the chance to go further—creating lively, inclusive spaces that bring fresh energy to the resort while fostering a stronger sense of belonging for our guests, Kohler associates, and village residents alike."
