 Marty's Showboat Supper Club operated in conjunction with the Northernaire Resort, located on the banks of Deer and Big Stone Lake in Three Lakes, Wisconsin. (Oneida County). Brothers Carl Jr. and Bob Marty of Monroe, Wisconsin, established the 3,000-acre luxury resort in 1946-1947. Professional baseball player and Three Lakes resident Cy Williams was responsible for the design of Marty's Showboat. The exterior has the appearance of a boat with a rounded bow, a second-story deck, and porthole windows. In addition to the Showboat, the complex originally featured a main hotel (demolished in 1995), four villas designed as boathouse replicas, and a golf course. The Northernaire was a popular destination for Chicago residents and visitors to the Three Lakes area. The Showboat currently serves as the clubhouse for the Big Stone Golf Club.
