Lake Geneva Weekend Itinerary and Activities, Lake Geneva, Wisconsin

We really enjoyed ourselves in the Wisconsin farmland this past weekend. Columbus Day or early October is the ideal time to visit Lake Geneva. Prices have dropped slightly from peak season, making it more affordable while still offering great experiences. You might even enjoy a burst of late-season warmth, perfect for outdoor activities. Whether it’s strolling along the scenic shore path, cruising on Geneva Lake, or dining lakeside at Pier 290, the fall air and vibrant autumn colors make this the perfect time for a weekend in Lake Geneva.

The Lake Geneva area is a beautiful region that includes several charming towns and cities surrounding the lake, which has a shoreline of about 21 miles. The main city, Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, is known for its resorts, shopping, dining, and lakefront activities.

On the western side of the lake is Fontana-on-Geneva Lake, a small village offering beaches, marinas, and scenic parks.

To the north, you’ll find Williams Bay, home to the historic Yerkes Observatory and a quaint downtown area. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
