Things To Do
Lake Geneva Cruise Line
Lake Geneva Cruise Line offers a variety of ways to experience the lake, including a two-hour lake tour with narration of the lakefront homes along the way (with a drink or two, of course). It also includes a wholly unique US Mailboat Tour that lets you tag along as they deliver mail to homes on the lake, in one of the last locations in the country where mail is delivered by boat.
Black Point Estate and Gardens
Black Point is an estate on the south shore of Geneva Lake, built in 1888 as a summer home by Conrad Seipp, a beer tycoon from Chicago. Explore the elegant trappings of this magnificent summer estate after arriving by boat, just as the family did in the 1800s.
Big Foot Beach State Park
Lake Geneva offers plenty of options for throwing down a towel and kicking back at a local beach like Big Foot Beach State Park, which occupies 900 feet of shoreline south of town and offers plenty of nature trails to wander.
The Baker House
Built in 1885, Baker House is a gorgeous lakefront mansion perfect for sipping a drink on the romantic front patio or inside the Gilded Age-style cocktail lounge, with employees dressed in period-accurate attire. The Baker House also offers plush B&B-style accommodations if you’re interested in booking your stay in a classic Lake Geneva mansion!
Fat Cats
While fancy cocktail lounges are all well and good, to get a true sense of a place one must experience its dive bars. Fat Cat's is a fun spot in downtown Lake Geneva for cheap booze and friendly conversation with locals.
Scoot Jockeys
For a wind-in-your-face-style experience, rent scooters to explore the wider terrain with the help of Scoot Jockeys. They provide guided tours of the area or will give you a map of their favorite scooter-friendly spots and turn you loose on the town.
Geneva Lake Shore Path
The 26-mile Geneva Lake Shore Path is an historic Native American walking trail that cuts right through the front yards of private waterfront properties and extends along the entire length of the lake. While a bit steep in some parts, the mostly flat hike offers A-plus views of both the lake and the beautiful homes that line its shore.
