Lake Geneva is a tourist city near the southern border of Wisconsin. Although this destination is popular with travelers from all over the world, Lake Geneva draws a lot of returning visitors from Chicago and surrounding cities. From snow sculpture contests and ice fishing to boating and hot air ballooning, there's always something to do in Lake Geneva. The area's many luxury resorts are bustling with activity year-round, although summers are the height of the tourist season. - The Grand Geneva, located just minutes from the beaches of Lake Geneva, overlooks its own man-made lake and rolling hills. Beautiful rooms and suites have modern appointments, luxurious Egyptian cotton sheets, and flat-screen TVs. Activities include a fitness center, horseback riding and hot air balloon rides right on the premises. The location boasts a relaxing spa, and two championship-level golf courses. In the winter, the rolling acreage of the Grand Geneva is home to snowboarding, 18 downhill ski slopes with their own lifts, and miles of cross-country ski trails.
