For a glimpse at Lake Geneva's gilded past, head to Black Point Estate and Gardens. The 19th-century Queen Anne-style summer home was built by Conrad Seipp, a wealthy Chicago beer magnate. Stargazers will swoon over Yerkes Observatory, home to the world's largest lens telescope. It's topped by a soaring 90-foot dome and markets itself as the "birthplace of modern astrophysics". Wisconsin is known for its lush apple orchards and cideries. Lake Geneva vacation rentals offer the perfect opportunity to stock up on your favorite bottles and enjoy a private tasting session on your waterfront deck.
Lake Geneva champions sun, sand and splash-happy moments, with Big Foot Beach State Park a favorite with locals. It's also dotted with campsites, so why not spend a night under the stars? If camping's not your scene, you can paddle on the lake or pamper yourself at one of the local spas. Planning on tying the knot in Lake Geneva? With spacious living areas and boutique decor, luxury Lake Geneva vacation rentals are the perfect way to keep your whole wedding party together. Alternatively, why not pop the question as you soar over Lake Geneva in a hot air balloon?
Lake Geneva shines in the summer, when Wisconsin enjoys long days and lashings of sunshine. It's a great time to enjoy sun-drenched days by the lake and balmy evenings by the outdoor firepit of your Lake Geneva vacation rental cottage. Fall is a beautiful time to visit, when Lake Geneva's forests explode in a sea of reds, yellows and golds. Things don't slow down in the winter, when Lake Geneva receives a dusting of snow. Layer up for snowshoe hikes through the forest, downhill skiing at Grand Geneva Resort, winter zip lining and more.
You'll find Lake Geneva tucked away in Walworth County, a scenic slice of Wisconsin surrounded by rolling hills and forested bluffs. The freshwater lake covers a 5000-acre footprint and is filled with bass, pike, walleye and trout. Thanks to its fertile soil, Walworth County is considered one of the state's bread baskets. This means you can devour a smorgasbord of Wisconsin grass-fed ribeye, craft apple cider, freshly caught fish, artisan cheese and more.
