We find a rotating Kaluza-Klein black hole solution with a squashed S3 horizon in five dimensions. This is a Kerr counterpart of the charged one found by Ishihara and Matsuno (hep-th/0510094) recently. The space-time is geodesic complete and free of naked singularity. Its asymptotic structure is a twisted S1 fiber bundle over a four dimensional Minkowski space-time. We also study the mass and thermodynamics of this black hole.
