Urbana Country Club Hotel and Spa

Urbana, Illinois
Construction Cost: Withheld
Area / Square Feet: 3,800
Occupancy Date: May 2021

After two seasons without a pool, club owners decided to improve the existing pool house and the traditional rectangular-shaped pool by creating a resort-style pool experience focused on all-around wellness. 

Urbana Country Club recently replaced its regenerative media filters on the existing pool and wanted to incorporate them in the new design. Counsilman-Hunsaker had to work with the constraints of the existing equipment and include them in the new design while providing the club with the type of exciting new pool it was envisioning. The pool concept was designed to enable swimming from one side to the other without getting out of the water. The outdoor aquatic center has two side-by-side pools, connected in the center and encompassing 3,800 square feet. 

The project also included the construction of a 30,000-square-foot, three-level building. The hotel and spa facility consists of a fitness center, locker rooms, gathering areas and a bar, guest rooms, guest suites, spas, hair and nail salons, a golf simulator and a pool table.
