A Historic Oshkosh Venue

In 1903, local architect William Waters designed this building for The Oshkosh Yacht Club. It’s main purpose was host a large sailing regatta that summer. In three months, The Yacht Club was built. Through the next 100 years, the building changed hands to many owners including The American Legion. In 2008, the building was bought by a local community-minded couple and was restored to its original glory and named The Waters, after its designer, William Waters.
