KOHLER, Wis. – Surprise your significant other with a romantic getaway this Valentine’s Day at The American Club Resort. Whether you spend the weekend or make it a day-trip, all visitors are sure to fall in love with the warm and inviting events, activities and resort packages in the quaint Village of Kohler.

Feel your stress melt away at The Kohler Waters Spa. The unique variety of “Two-Gether” spa treatments allows couples to enjoy world-class service with their loved one, while therapists attend to each person. The spa offers a couples bathing experience in the newly renovated Riverbath Room, which also features a walk-in shower that includes the KOHLER Ambient Rain shower with chromotherapy and the KOHLER Flipside handshower. Other “Two-Gether” spa treatments include couples massage, Stretch & Flex and H2O Inspiration.

After a full day at the spa, enjoy an intimate dining experience at one of The Kitchens of Kohler restaurants. Tables are available at The Immigrant Restaurant and Winery Bar, Blackwolf Run, Cucina, The Wisconsin Room and Horst & Plow. Each location will offer a special Valentine’s Day menu, in addition to regular culinary favorites. The Kitchens of Kohler restaurants will be open for full service Friday, Feb. 11 through Monday, Feb. 14.

For dessert, don’t miss the Craverie Chocolatier Café where you can choose between three special Valentine’s gift packages from KOHLER Original Recipe Chocolates.

Available in-store only at the Craverie, stock up on a 4- or 12-piece set of Chocolate Hearts complete with lemon ganache, milk chocolate mousse and sea salt caramel filled hearts. Chocolate Heart boxes range from $9 to $24.95.

If the best way to your partner’s heart is through their stomach, the Demonstration Kitchen series is a must-do while visiting The American Club Resort. The Demonstration Kitchen is an interactive session where guests can learn from Kohler chefs through cooking demos, tastings and wine and beer parings. In February guests can
